Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox Page #4

---

how you found out about me.

In my world,

I'm a hero named the Flash.

Bruce took me here, showed me...

I used to be a doctor.

Mention my dead son again and I will

break out my surgical instruments.

My ring. Let me show you

that I'm telling the truth.

My uniform is in that ring.

I'll humor you.

See? I told...

Not what you were expecting?

- No. Thawne.

- Who?

The man this uniform belongs to.

My opposite, the Reverse-Flash.

Eobard Thawne.

- What kind of name is Eobard?

- The 25th-century kind.

He replicated the accident that allowed me

to tap into the Speed Force...

...became a criminal,

Professor Zoom.

Speed Force?

The Speed Force allows both of us to bend

the laws of physics using super speed.

He can travel through time.

You're suggesting that he changed

something in the past...

That changed everything. It's crazy.

My mom's alive. You're Batman.

And Diana and Arthur

are about to start World War Ill.

But why give me this?

He hates you.

So much he'll destroy everything

to kill you.

But his psychosis requires

that you know he's responsible.

Could anyone, even Thawne,

be that deranged?

You'd be amazed the monsters

this world can create.

We have to stop this, Dr. Wayne.

Catch Thawne,

find out what he changed...

...and change it back before Aquaman

and Wonder Woman...

...kill everyone on the planet.

Not saying I believe you,

but in your reality...

- ...is my son...?

- Bruce is alive.

He's Batman.

If I were to help you,

what exactly would we need?

Just what's over there

and unbelievably bad weather.

Welcome to Gotham.

I thought you were supposed to be smart.

I am smart, captain. Very smart.

Unfortunately,

having the greatest intellect on earth...

...doesn't always help one

do the impossible.

You better be able to pinpoint

that son of a b*tch.

Aquaman's doomsday device

should be easy for me to find...

...simply by locating the power source.

A weapon capable

of wiping out continents...

...would require an astonishing

amount of energy.

Based on my analysis

of the shockwave...

...our course should take us

right over the origin point.

And there's nothing. Not a blip.

I'm taking a big risk

coming this close to his waters.

- How close are we?

- See for yourself.

That's a lot of death.

Even for me.

I suggest if you want to prevent further

tragedies of this magnitude...

Battle stations!

A bit too late for that, I think.

Surface-dwellers, my lord.

Not Amazons.

Meddlers, Orm. They're in my way.

Well, at least I know I was right.

No survivors.

This is crazy. You ought to be in Arkham.

Maybe so, but I need to recreate

the conditions of the accident...

...that turned me into the Flash.
