Ok, I had a V Logan use Flurry & B/C/F's on a fig of mine the other day. On the first attack roll, he rolled a 6 (double 3's) which I understand is a "knockback". Now, the V Logan was on one side of my fig, and a wall directly on the opposite side.
My question is, even though the "knockback" didn't result in my fig literally moving from the square the square he was in, does the "flurry" attack immediately end because of the "knockback"?
Flurry would end if the figure was not adjacent to your Logan. If you knock the opponent fig into a wall he takes the B/C/F damage+ knockback into the wall damage+ if he is still next to you you can attack again. Repeat only if figure stays adjacent to Logan can flurry work!
It is better to keep quiet and be thought of as a fool than to say something and remove all doubt.

It's even broader than that, though. Flurry isn't like Hypersonic; it's not a chain of attacks. When a character uses Flurry, he is making two completely independent attacks. The first attack is declared, rolled, and resolved. It is not until the first attack has been resolved that the second attack is declared. It is then that you do all the checks and make sure the attack is legal, so you have to make sure that the figure is adjacent at this point.
In your example, knockback is only important insofar as where the figure ends up. He is still adjacent at the end, and so is still a legal target for a close combat attack. Logan can rip into him.
Note one more thing, though. Logan doesn't have to attack the same figure twice. If the figure is killed by the first attack, or hurt enough that Logan doesn't want to bother with attacking him again, Logan can simply attack a different adjacent figure.
