Absolute Flash is a superhero comic book series published by DC Comics, based on the character of The Flash. The series is written by Jeff Lemire and illustrated by Nick Robles, and began publication on March 19, 2025, as part of DC's Absolute Universe (AU) imprint. It is the fourth title from the Absolute Universe, and the first title of the second wave of Absolute comics released in 2025.

A young Wally West must understand and train with his powers. Unlike most interpretations of the Flash, there is no Speed Force or Flash family.^[1]

By July 2024, Jeff Lemire and Nick Robles were attached to write Absolute Flash, part of DC Comics' Absolute Universe imprint.^[2] The title was released in March 2025.^[3]

Lemire chose to write the Flash because of a lack of a teenage perspective from the original catalog, having a lighter tone than the rest of the Absolute Universe titles, as well as Lemire having grown with Wally and favoring him.^[4]
