We’re now deep in Mark Waid’s run, and he’s got a strong command of what makes Flash cool.
I would totally fight crime like this if I was Flash.
But no sooner are we all comfortable with his superheroics than Waid does something very Waidlike–he flips the script.
So what do you do if you’re Mark Waid and you’re writing about the fastest man alive? You force him to stand still in a courtroom and fight with words.
Genius.
