Flash #193

The cover by Scott Kolins says it all — a battered, bloodied Gorilla Grodd roars with terrifying fury as the Flash meets him head-on in a collision of lightning and raw power, with debris and fallen figures scattered across the ground below. That tagline, "Grodd…Unleashed!", perfectly captures the barely-contained chaos Kolins renders here, from Grodd's glowing eyes to the crackling Speed Force energy surrounding the Scarlet Speedster. Geoff Johns, Kolins, and Doug Hazlewood were clearly having a blast with this February 2003 chapter of "Run Riot," and this cover alone makes it easy to see why.
