    Ok so I’ve been reading the rebirth run and I finished reading vol 5 negative which has issues 28-32 and then issue 33 is part of dark metal but yet in vol 6 cold day in hell it has issues 34-38 but issue 32 leaves off where 34 starts so I’m just confused on where issue 33 fits in there

    mark waid vs Geoff johns

      I feel like both are really great writers, as well as them writting great runs. You will probably get a lot of recommendations to read both of them, and I agree. If I had to say, I would recommend the flash by mark waid for new readers. I know you would be starting with the flash #62, or something close to that issue, but just reading the entirety of the run is satisfiying to see the growth Wallyhad gone through. But personally for me, I would have yo say that Geoff Johns' run is my favorite of the two. This is just my opinion, and for me, I just really enjoyed his flash run.

    in your reading order part 1 between the flash silver age 3 and death of iris west issues 200-269 are not mentioned. are they collected or even important to the story.

      I was thinking of mentioning those issues, but I have not read any of those issues yet since they have not been collected in any type of book format yet, and I am hoping that there will be omnibus books for the bronze age, similar to the silver age, since I am interested in reading the comics from that era. So to answer your questions is that those issues have not been collected in book format yet, and because of that, I have not read them, so I am not sure if they are important.

    Great video! Question: which one do you prefer: Flash New 52 or Rebirth? Personally, I haven't read the New 52 run (although it looks like a great series, so I might have to pick it up) but I've read some Rebirth arcs and I've enjoyed them.

      I would say that I like Rebirth more. I still think the stories in the New 52 is good, but everything that happens in the beginning, is still relevant 10 volumes later. I like Rebirth, because you are rewarded for reading from start to finish, and you get to see that things that seemed irrelevant in the beginning has an impact later on. I still think the New 52 is good, I do not think it is as good as some of the Flash runs in the past, but I still think it is a good storyline to read for flash readers, whether they are new readers or readers who have been reading the Flash for a while. If you do pick up the Flash New 52, I would suggest getting the Omnibus version, collecting the first four stories, and then the five softcovers, vol. 5-9, since there will most likely be an Omnibus collecting the rest of the New 52, and I think having the stories in Omnibus is good, since the pages are oversized, and since the book is a hardcover, it is more durable and lasts longer.

    btw do you think mark waid will get an omnibus dedicated to his run or is that just in the past. I would also like to know where you get your info so I could do my own digging

      @comixconversation6087  3 роки тому

      With book 8 of the Flash by Mark Waid being released, I think there will be a higher chance that there will be omnibus books released collecting the entire Mark Waid run. I do not think the omnibus books will collect the Flash by Grant Morrison and Mark Miller, but I do hope they release a deluxe hardcover of it. I mainly use Reddit, and general google searches to see if there are any updates for Flash books being released, but is there any specific information you had in mind, so I could answer your question better?

      I have been rather busy recently, but I already have a video scripted, I just need to record it, and with the weekend here, I will make it a priority to get it up within the next two days. Especially since you are interested, I will make sure that I get another video out this weekend.

    do you think its necessary to read the flash starting at the silver age. I know the answer to that but dose it just add to the experience or not.

    • @comixconversation6087
      @comixconversation6087  3 роки тому

      During the Silver Age, most of the comics were self contained, and did not really add to any on going story, with some exceptions such as the flash of two worlds introducing the multiverse. I would say that the best place to start would be with Crisis on Infinite Earths, since it rewrites most of the DC Universe and going from there, leading with Savage Velocity for Flash and then having the Flash by Mark Waid following. Although the Silver Age does not really impact comics later on, I do think if you have a chance, read at least some of the stories from the Silver Age, since I think it is interesting seeing the different type of writing style, and in a sense, it does add to the experience seeing the evolution the Flash has gone through from 1956 to Present.

      Yeah I have been reading Jack Kirby's Fourth world omnibus, and I have been planning on continuing with the new gods once I finish the book. I was also planning on starting to read JLA by grant morrison, but I am mainly reading things that tie into the Flash. The reason I started with fourth world is because I heard that it could help readers understand the characters better in Final Crisis, and I was interested in reading some of Jack Kirby's work.
