I caught up on The Flash as well. It's sad to hear that this creative team is leaving but it seems like they're going to leave on a higher note. I'm also excited that Christos Gage will be taking over the book in December.
As far as I know Cage (and whoever is doing the art) is doing issue #26 only....there is a new team coming on board.
I been liking the books I picked up this month so far for Villains Month:
Black Manta - It was good to see a book dealing with FE and see that Manta has daddy issues rather than just a vendetta against Aquaman.
Relic - A very interesting origin that puts Relic in a non-villain position, but rather someone that is trying to save this Universe at all cost from the Power Spectrum users.
The Riddler - It wasn't THAT great, but at least it both kinda gave us a tie into both Forever Evil and Zero Year.
Reverse Flash - That was an interesting origin, I was wondering what was the black armor like stuff he had and the explanation is smart. Unlike many believe, I doubt we will see any Wally from this....
The Rogues - Is great to see the Rogues, they are such a unique group. And they gave us an answer to Mirror Master being out in the real world in Forever Evil (it would make some sense to release this book the same week as Forever Evil rather than 2 weeks later).
Black Hand - In a way I found it the worst of the ones I read...it was kinda pointless, but the very end sets up interesting stuff for after "Lights Out"
Darkseid - Another origin story that is trying to fit New 52 Darkseid into the timeline....it was interesting that this story also kinda crossed with the events of Earth-2 and that the ending page teases stuff for both Earth-2 and Batman/Superman.
And those are the ones I picked up....next week is Secret Society, Black Adam, Ocean Master and Sinestro.
