Flash #43

Flash finds himself dwarfed and surrounded by two towering, luminous silver figures — one female, one male — their smoky, otherworldly forms reaching toward each other as the scarlet speedster stands his ground between them, clearly at the mercy of something far beyond human scale. The cover tagline "Lost in the World of Kilg%re!" sets the unsettling tone, with that grid-green background reinforcing a sense of digital unreality. Penciled by Greg LaRocque and inked by José Marzán Jr., this October 1990 issue from William Messner-Loebs promises a genuinely strange corner of the DC Universe where raw speed may not be enough.
