Barry goes to Iron Heights to speak with Meena, and after all they’ve been through since issue 34 there is still some incredible chemistry between them. Meena has seen all the aspects of the Speed Force as Barry has, and she’s still trying to find her place in this world – especially with the Negative Speed Force being kept at bay within her. He’s the same old big-hearted Barry, and it lends a real star-crossed quality to their interaction.

The most emotionally-heavy part of this issue is when Iris is finally confronted by OG Wally (or Strawberry Wally as he’s lovingly referred to on Reddit). This is intense and heartfelt as the reader hangs on tight while Wally’s emotions are displayed in every panel; his second thoughts, his fear, his trepidation. Artist Christian Duce, whose work in this issue is a tour du force, captures all of this with diamond-like precision. Like, don’t get me wrong: I LOVE Carmine Di Giandomenico on this title, but holy hell does Duce make this story crackle. He’s got to be one of the best – if not THE best – artists who desperately NEEDS to be in a regular book.
