Absolute Flash #18 Preview

 

When he and Linda were trapped in the Mirror Realm, Wally West glimpsed his father inside Still Point. Later, Wally learned that freeing Rudy West could endanger the world. Wally is unsure if he can trust the warning. Still, Wally now knows Elenore Thawne's location. She oversaw the exploration of Still Point as the head of Project Olympus. And she is the price tag for a mission to free his father. 

Wally knows he cannot trust Elenore. But can Wally trust Mirror Master, or the inexplicable warning against freeing his father? And how will Wally, Linda, and Grodd's battle in Colorado impact their return to the Dibny Mission?
