The Flash #10

Part of DC's New 52 initiative, The Flash #10 (2012) puts Weather Wizard front and center as the Scarlet Speedster's deadly new threat — and the cover by Francis Manapul makes the stakes immediately clear. A dark-costumed figure crackles with arcing lightning while the Flash himself is hurled through the air in a blaze of electric energy, with a third figure caught in the chaos below. With writing from Manapul and Brian Buccellato alongside interior art by Marcus To and inks from Ray McCarthy, this creative team brings real energy to one of the Flash's most weather-worn rogues.
