 | | Reverse Flash (or Professor Zoom, or Zoom as he's now being called) has long been a favorite villain of mine, and Mark Waid had written the definitive modern Reverse Flash story in "Return of Barry Allen," as far as I was concerned. |
 | | However, it seems possible that the original Reverse Flash (or his consciousness at least) might somehow be involved, and certainly I'm interested to find out what he's going to do now, even if the origin of the character and his powers is never explained further. |
 | | While I'm anxious to see a superspeed confrontation between Zoom and Flash in upcoming issues, though, this issue is the origin of the villain to some degree, and it's the same kind of strong, well-thought-out character development I've come to expect from Johns, especially when it comes to the rogues. |
