Comments:
This issue is labeled:"Millennium Week 1".

This story is continued from Flash #7.

Wally's father is revealed to be a Manhunter in this story.

Pages 8 and 9 of this story recount the meeting at the Green Lantern Citadel depicted in Millennium #1. The scene is slightly expanded to include a new conversation between Flash and Black Canary prior to the meeting.

Synopsis:
The Flash and Red Trinity battle Blue Trinity on the border between Finland and the Soviet Union. Blue Trinity breaks off the attack as the authorities arrive. Flash receives a message to attend a meeting at the Green Lantern Citadel. He then passes out.

When the Flash regains consciousness, he has been transported to the Citadel in California. Black Canary wakes him up, then he hears the Guardian's speech concerning the Manhunters and the upcoming Millennium event.

Flash returns home after the meeting and finds his father waiting for him. Mr. West tells Wally that he is a Manhunter and that he killed his wife. He wants Wally to ignore the plans of the Guardian. When Flash refuses to listen, Mr. West summons Blue Trinity to knock out Wally. Red Trinity arrives to save him. Blue Trinity is forced to retreat, and Mr. West escapes. Wally then receives a phone call from his mother indicating that she survived the accident her husband used to try and kill her.
