The Flash #20 - "Bad Moon Rising, Part One"

image host

I’d be an eccentric choice for The Flash if the object was simply to - ugh - play the hits. But if I’m allowed to go delving for fascinating tales in cosmic horror, psychedelic revelation, 70’s adventure or (as per the next arc) ghastly trench warfare? Count me in. -- Si Spurrier

Mod Post: Off-Topic Tuesday

In the comments to these weekly posts (and only these posts), it's your chance to go as off topic as you like.

Talk about non-comics stuff, thread derail, and just generally chat among yourselves.

The intent of these posts is to chat and have some fun and, sure, vent a little as required. Reasoned debate is fine, as always, but if you have to ask if something is going over the line, think carefully before posting please.

Normal board rules about conduct and behaviour still apply, of course.

It's been suggested that, if discussing spoilers for recent media events, it might be advisable to consider using the rot13 method to prevent other members seeing spoilers in passing.

The world situation is the world situation. If you're following the news, you know it as much as I do, if you're not, then there are better sources than scans_daily. But please, no doomscrolling, for your own sake.

Actually, if you've been able to stay even remotely abreast of the news, my compliments and sympathies in equal measure.

I've been stuck at dogin insane hours at work for what seems like months now (It's only been weeks... I think... possibly days... What is time again?)

Anyway, as I have to commute yet again, I'm leaving this short.

It would make more sense to start with the Silver Age series, but I have a strong aversion to Silver Age nonsense. You get this series instead.

Nightwing #126 is the rot in Blüdhaven's police.

The first issue of this run'd had them described as " the most corrupt police force in America " - they were certainly up there when Blüdhaven was first introduced.

The run preceding this, the Tom Taylor/Bruno Redondo one, had included that corruption being cleansed with Superman supporting character Maggie Sawyer being appointed Blüdhaven police commissioner.

This run's following from that with " there's still problems in Blüdhaven's police force ". Part of it's been their officers cheerfully accepting laser guns, jetpacks and walking tanks (provided by Spheric Solutions, front for the run's overarching villains) to use in their duties.

Issue #125'd had one of the laser-gun-and-jetpack cops murdered - and Maggie, looking into his death, discovering that his " by the book " nature had just been his way of getting away with everything he wanted to.

She and Nightwing'd met the dead Officer Dietrich's killer - an apparent manifestation of Captain Hallow, the ghost of " the first [Blüdhaven cop] to die in the line of duty ", who supposedly punished those of the Blüdhaven police who didn't stand by their fellow officers.

Nightwing'd grappled with the ghost - who'd slipped his grip, leaving a cloak behind. Maggie'd got a shot off at the Captain as he fled - one that hit.

Captain Hallow still got away. )
