While I preferred the first one, I still enjoyed this. I just really love how pure Barry is.

It's amazing. I can see everything before it happens. I can weigh every possible outcome. I can make the right choice. I can do something about it. Before anyone even notices.

⚡ The Flash (2011) #2 – “The Speed of Thought”

Barry’s powers evolve in unexpected ways here. He learns he can think at super-speed, processing thousands of possibilities in seconds. This issue really explores the science behind being The Flash and what it means to live faster than anyone else—mentally and physically.
Meanwhile, the clone mystery deepens, and we see the ethical dilemmas of Barry’s powers start to emerge. The pacing is excellent—both literally and narratively—and Manapul’s panel design captures speed in a way no other comic artist quite manages.

Nice intro to how mastering the speed force affects how Barry processes information around him. It clicked for him a little fast though. Hope there's more to it.
