Everyone knows that
DC's New 52 is smashing records across the globe. Well, it seems that the newest issue of
FLASH has thoroughly wrecked its selling record, with issue #1 becoming the best selling
Flash title in over 40 years. That might not seem like that big of a deal, but this means that
FLASH #1 has beaten all of DC's previous
Flash oriented stores, like 2011 crossover epic
Flashpoint and all of its tie-ins.
DC Co-Publisher Dan Didio offered this little statement to fans of the new series:
Happy to say that the New 52 FLASH comic is the best selling issue of Flash in over 40 years.
Be sure to stop by your local comic shop for this week's release of
FLASH #1.
Written by FRANCIS MANAPUL and BRIAN BUCCELLATO Art and cover by FRANCIS MANAPUL;
Variant cover by IVAN REIS and TIM TOWNSEND
The Fastest Man Alive returns to his own monthly series from the writer/artist team of Francis Manapul and Brian Buccellato! The Flash knows he can't be everywhere at once, but what happens when he faces an all-new villain who really can! As if that's not bad enough, this villain is a close friend!
