Knight Terrors: The Flash #1

Part of DC's 2023 Knight Terrors event, this issue drops the Scarlet Speedster straight into nightmare territory — the cover by Werther Dell'Edera shows the Flash in wide-eyed alarm, his red suit partially ensnared by a gaunt, ghoulish figure looming from the shadows behind him, its glowing purple eyes cold with menace. The tension between the Flash's desperate expression and the creature's eerily calm grip makes for a genuinely unsettling image. With Alex Paknadel writing and Daniel Bayliss on art with colors by Igor Monti, "The Hard Yards" promises a darker, more psychological spin on one of DC's fastest heroes.
