“The Fastest Man-- Dead!”

In "The Fastest Man—Dead!", the Flash finds himself with just fifteen minutes to live after a shocking encounter with an alien police officer during a visit to Julie Schwartz. With time running out and no clear path to survival, a desperate idea from Julie might be his only hope. Written by Dennis O'Neil and brought to life by Doug Mahnke’s dynamic art, with Mark Farmer’s inks, David Baron’s colors, and Jared K. Fletcher’s lettering, this gripping tale is a standout moment in the Flash’s legacy. The cover, a striking portrait by Alex Ross, captures the urgency and gravity of the moment.
