So, after 100 issues, Joshua Williamson is hanging up his bright yellow Flash boots. He first took over the book four years ago, and has since then put together one of the outstanding run’s in Barry Allen’s history. He’s in some great company too. This issue is the final one in Williamson’s ‘Finish Line’ arc, which has in some ways distilled down into a pure form what Williamson’s take on Barry has always emphasised. Personal relationships and family. The Speedster family, and assorted supporting characters, has always been an important part of the Flash mythology, and Williamson just decided to put it front and centre. You also knew there was only one character that Williamson would use to end his run, the person who is the polar opposite of Barry. Eobard Thawne, The Reverse-Flash.
