My friend is a fan of The Flash, so I was planning on getting him either Flashpoint or Rebirth. So, in your opinion Sup Forums, which one should I get?
Which is better?

Rebirth, but that's not saying much. They're both poo-poo.
If he's a fan he would have read them both already
He watches the tv show I think. He does love speedsters though
Why don't you get the new 52 run?
Honestly both new52 and Rebirth stories are pretty meh so far but at least new52 has that Manapul art which is better than what we've gotten so far with Rebirth.
REBIRTH
Flashpoint is garbage
Rebirth. Flashpoint's basically an AU.
Flashpoint
The aftermath is terrible, but the run itself is good
Out of the two, definitely Rebirth.
But they're both pretty bad.
I'd get him the Manapul-Buccelato New-52 run; story's not great but the art is amazing.
Flashpoint is very good, but it's not exactly a Flash story, it's a story about the whole of the DCU. He still might enjoy it, but if you're looking for pure Flash, then it's not the best bet.
The Rebirth has like 3 issues out, so it's not really good or bad yet.
>Why don't you get the new 52 run?
Because it's shit
>He watches the tv show I think
oh.. so he doesn't Read comics
Get rebirth for him. Flashpoint may be a little complicated. For flashpoint, just get him the animated movie.
OP here, are there other versions of rebirth? I just saw this one and I'd like to know if this one is any better
That's a different kind of Rebirth.
That was the proper introduction of a classic hero back into the universe, similar to Green Lantern Rebirth that brought back Hal Jordan.
The Rebirth in the OP is part of the DC Univese Rebirth going on right now. Everyone gets a Rebirth oneshot establishing the status quo, and then their #1.
Don't get Johns' Rebirth. It's about the return of Barry Allen and isn't good for someone's first Flash comic.
Get him Geoff Johns Flash Book One. I would say Mark Waid Flash Book One but it's not out yet, and I don't know how good the Grant Morrison run is.
You poor or sum'? Get him both. Both are nice Flash stories

Send him THESE, LET HIM DECIDE and then buy accordingly. He'll probably be interested in FP because it's what they are going to do with the next season, at least for the first batch of issues. If you mean the current set of issues of Rebirth, (a) it's kinda incomplete and going to be confusing since they deal with the entire DC Universe, and (b) it's going to be hard to get those in a way that you can give them to him other than digital and hard copies makes a nicer present.
THIS IS BAD. DO NOT GET IT.
There are these paperbacks just called The Flash by Geoff Johns that are great. There are 3.
There's a collection called The Flash by Millar/Morrison (names might be switched)
In December Mark Waid's Flash is coming out and it's the best.
There are 4 good volumes by Manapul and Buccellato which are good. They're also getting 1 hardcover of it all in like a month or two.
Don't listen to these idiots, they're just on the "hating newer comics and the New52" meme, get Flashpoint because the story begins and ends over the 7 issues, making it a much better gift than an ongoing.
Don't get them Flashpoint. Either get them some (recent Flash Rebirth - that's currently running), or the start of the New 52 run
Rebirth Flash has been fucking outstanding, Speedster Island is loads of fun.
>and I don't know how good the Grant Morrison run is.
It's great m8
Thanks Sup Forums for the suggestions and help. After considering all the options and asking my friend, I think either flashpoint or the flash volume 1 would be appropriate. Sincerely, OP
