“Case One: The Dastardly Death of the Rogues”

The Scarlet Speedster bursts through police tape and cracked pavement in a blaze of golden lightning on Francis Manapul's kinetic cover for this 2010 launch of The Flash — a Brightest Day tie-in written by Geoff Johns. The Flash charges straight at the reader, police cruisers flanking him on a city street, every crackle of Speed Force energy radiating the momentum of a fresh start. With a story titled "Case One: The Dastardly Death of the Rogues," this first issue promises a mystery with real stakes for Central City's fastest protector.
