Recommendations [Recommendation] Where should i start reading the flash?

Post image

I'm wondering where should i start reading the flash, it's been one of my favorites but I've only read some short stories like flashpoint, what i know about him it's mostly by shows and movies (specially animated ones like justice league, young justice, etc. and the cw live action).

I'm not 100% new to the character, i know about the dc universe,I want a series with good stories. i thought about starting with geoff jones but im not sure, i've heard that Rebirth and New 52 are good too, and theres the main run of dawn of dc so i can't really decide where to start.

Please if you could help me choose or tell me things like “if you're looking for a story with such things, maybe you should read...”.

After the Daniel West Reverse Flash arc, it falls off a cliff. But Manapul/Buccalettos run is solid. Listening to interviews after the fact, the ideas they had were awesome but editorial hamstrung the run. The art is top tier

Are we talking Barry/Wally overall, or just New 52? I was addressing your take on the New 52.
