Ever since his first appearance, and his insatiable curiosity about what his sister is up to, Dragons: The Nine Realms has been teasing what finally occurs in “It Flies in the Family” as Eugene (Vincent Tong) discovers the truth about Dragon Club. Demanding a dragon of his own, or threatening to tell everyone their secret, Eugene basically blackmails his way into the club as the group go in search of a dragon for Jun‘s (Ashley Liao) older brother before running into new troubles with dragons from the Fire Realm invading the Crystal Realm.

The Flash #800

/ / Comics

The Flash #800 offers an oversized issue with several stories all centered on Wally West (and not the Flash getting his own movie this weekend). The choice seems a bit weird, but there’s some good stuff here. And, thankfully, none of the stories feature the awkwardly redesigned costume with yellow pipping which came out of the New 52 and has making my eyes bleed for over a decade.
