In the end, despite its half-hearted attempt at unreliable narration, Flash Annual #3 (Williamson, Segovia, Peterson, Pagulayan) just comes off as a cheap attempt to force some laughs that aren’t really there to begin with. Add to that three artists with clashing styles, and you have a highly skippable $4.99 comic.
