Ace West has it all figured out. He’s the fastest guy in National City after all! Well, second fastest if you count his uncle, Barry Allen, aka THE FLASH. But this young superhero has more to learn than he thinks.
After messing up one too many missions by getting distracted signing autographs and snapping selfies, Flash takes him and a group of ne’er-do-well kids to a pocket dimension for an intervention. Kid Flash assumes he’s there to show the other kids how to use their powers responsibly, but when Flash gets unexpectedly called away on important Justice League business, Kid Flash must learn it takes a lot more than being super to be a hero.
From the writer behind the Spider-Ham trilogy, Steve Foxe, with dynamic and action-packed art by Jerry Gaylord, comes a story about a ragtag group of kids who must work together or be doomed to life as the ‘bad kids’.”
