Flash #323 – Reviews Of Old Comics

I was at my local library when I spotted the Essentials collection of The Trial Of The Flash. I remember picking up a few issues of this story when it first came out, but never read the entire run from beginning to end. The whole thing goes on for quite a long period of time, over two years, culminating in The Flash #350. It's almost legendary how it ends, using a method that only work in comic books, with the Flash killing his arch-enemy, responsible for the murder of his first wife, on the day the hero is to marry his second wife, Fiona Webb. Unfortunately for Fiona, the Flash had to abandon his Barry Allen identity and ended up going to live in the thirtieth century with his first wife, who'd come back to get him acquitted of murdering the Reverse Flash. Like I said, only in comics. I was curious about whatever happened to Fiona Webb, and she simply never appeared again after the Trial of the Flash. She only showed up again in flashbacks. Where she went after this day is unknown, but I would like to think that she had an absolutely normal life unaffected by super-heroes. Of course, that would be silly.

Gerry Conway Claims DC Cheating Creators Out Of Royalties (UPDATED)

Look at the End of this Article For An Update. On his Tumblr, comic book writer Gerry Conway took DC Entertainment to task for their policy of claiming that characters were derivative, justifying not paying their creators for the character's use in other media. Unfortunately, they also claim that the creators of the original character aren't the creators either, thus no one gets creator credit and thus, pay no royalties to anyone. He also points out that DC Entertainment stopped proactively crediting creators after the departure of former DC President Paul Levitz, and now creators have to request royalties for all characters that they created in their time working for DC. It's despicable that DC uses faulty logic to stop creators from benefit in any way from their creations' use in mass media that nets DC, and their parent company Warner Bros. millions in revenue.
