Cameo Appearance(s):
Comment(s):
- Some of the characters that appear as spectators at the charity race between Flash and Speed Buggy at the end of the issue are seen in versions that resemble their pre-New 52 versions and other characters' appearances do not presently fit into the New 52 timeline and might not count as in-continuity appearances for these characters.
Solicitation:
- When Wally West tries to take down Kilg%re, he’s stunned to find he has an unknown ally who can move just as fast as he can. Dr. Pernell, a brilliant S.T.A.R. Labs scientist, has found a way to power his buggy using the Speed Force. When The Flash agrees to help test the limits of the vehicle in a race, something sends them spiraling out of the Speed Force and into the unknown. They land in a post-apocalyptic future, but Dr. Pernell is gone, leaving only the buggy, which is now sentient. Together with his new anthropomorphic ally, The Flash must find a way to repair the time stream and stop the triple threat of Savitar, Speed Demon Buggy and…Reverse Speed Buggy!
