Ladies, gentlemen and other species.
Welcome back to Earth 2. And boy what a welcome it is!
It’s time for a match between Holt
and Sloan. “TERRIFIC?” I thought, as I saw them. So basically
Earth-1’s Mr. Terrific (this is the point where you go “oh that’s
what terrific meant” ) has landed up on Earth-2 by accident, and
right there waiting for him is Terry Sloan. The first Mr. Terrific
from Earth-1, plain ol’ smartest man here. There's fighting, Sloan
wins, cut to next scene! No that’s not a spoiler.
Picking up from last issue, Jay Garrick
meets Mercury. Not Max Mercury – MERCURY like the roman god. And
it’s time to power up. This issue is all about the birth of the
Flash.
I like and don’t like the costume at
the same time. Is that possible?
Also if you didn’t already know, ALAN
SCOTT IS GAY! (No it’s not a problem for me, I just felt like
writing in caps since it seems to be such big news these days) We
catch a glimpse of him with his boyfriend.
