The Flash #2

In "Lightning Strikes Twice, Part Two: Thunderstuck!", Barry Allen takes on a new protégé as August Heart, newly empowered by a lightning strike, begins his training in the Speed Force. When Iris is taken by the Black Hole during her investigation into a S.T.A.R. Labs heist, Barry’s attempt to save her ends in defeat—until August dons a costume and steps into the fray. As a storm rages over Central City, lightning strikes again, unleashing a wave of speed powers across the city. Written by Joshua Williamson and illustrated by Carmine Di Giandomenico, with colors by Ivan Plascencia and letters by Steve Wands, the cover by Karl Kerschl captures the electric tension of a city on the edge.
