“Think Fast”

In "Think Fast," Barry Allen confronts the mystery of the Speed Force as his past and powers intertwine in unexpected ways. Meanwhile, the rise of Grodd in Gorilla City takes a dark turn, and a quiet moment at Barry’s memorial reveals a surprising connection between David Singh and Hartley Rathaway. Written by Francis Manapul and Brian Buccellato, with art by Manapul and colors by Buccellato and Ian Herring, this 2013 launch of The Flash delivers a kinetic, emotionally grounded start to a new era — all capped by a striking cover by Manapul.
