The Flash Vol. 7

When the Flash can see the future, how far should he go to change it?

Wally West’s incredible new abilities have made him one of the most effective heroes on Earth. With powerful Flashes of Insight allowing him to glimpse future disasters before they happen, Wally has been preventing accidents, saving lives, and stopping crimes before they even begin.

At first, it seems like a dream come true.

But not everyone agrees. As Wally pushes his powers further than ever before, questions begin to emerge about how much one hero should be allowed to know—and how much control anyone should have over the future. When his efforts lead to unexpected consequences, the Justice League steps in, forcing Wally to defend both his actions and his vision for what a hero can be.

From writer Ryan North and artist Gavin Guidry comes a bold new chapter in the life of the Scarlet Speedster that combines superhero action, science fiction concepts, and thought-provoking questions about destiny, responsibility, and free will.
