10 Graphic Novels DCEU Fans Must Read

7. Flashpoint

Dark Knight Returns Thumb
DC Comics

If you are even just a small DC (or more specifically Flash) fan, then you've likely heard of Flashpoint, whether that be through the news of an upcoming DCEU film of the same name, the CW Flash show, the animated movie, or even just because you read the comics.

Whatever it is, you can probably guess that this story arc is one of Barry Allen's more pivotal tales, due to the amount of exposure it has received.

For those of you who don't know, Flashpoint takes place in a different timeline in which the Flash doesn't initially have his powers, Thomas Wayne is Batman (rather than Bruce) and Aquaman and Wonder Woman are at war with one another over control of the world (to just name a few of the differences). As a result, the book follows Barry in his attempts to correct the timeline and put the world back to its 'normal' self.

With both an upcoming Flashpoint film, along with the CW's take on the story in the Arrowverse, this is definitely a great read if you're a fan of either live-action version of the character.
