I’ve read this comic many times. It’s one of my favorite event comic and a big reason I like The Flash so much. Wally will always be my favorite but this is a great Barry Allen story that I recommend to everyone.

Finishing my tour of the stories that shaped the DC Universe is 2011's Flashpoint. Barry Allen, the Flash, wakes up one day to find the world has changed around him. Batman is an even harsher creature of the night. Green Lantern is the alien Abin Sur. Aquaman and Wonder Woman's respective kingdoms are at war, and about to destroy the world. Superman is nowhere to be found. And no one has ever heard of the Flash. As Barry and Batman set out to fix the world around them, the story takes an unexpected twist at the end, resulting in a reshaping of the DC Universe into the state it exists in today. It's actually a great Flash story, I think, but not as great a "Crisis" as some of the others. Still, it's too important to ignore.

Stellar, 10/10. Animated movie sticks pretty close to the story line too.

Love Flash and most of John's work. However even with the mind warping events, just didn't sell me as well as some of the other stories.
