☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collection from DC's 2003 'The Flash' series focuses on the Scarlet Speedster's iconic gallery of rogues, including Captain Cold, Mirror Master, and the Weather Wizard. It features stories that delve into the motivations and dynamics of these classic villains, offering a character-driven look at the Flash's most persistent adversaries. The volume collects issues from the series that highlight the Rogues' unique code and their complex relationship with the Flash.
In "Event Horizon," Geoff Johns and Scott Kolins kick off a gripping chapter in The Flash’s journey as Peek-A-Boo’s desperate act of stealing a life-saving kidney puts her in direct conflict with the Flash and Cyborg. Meanwhile, Detective Morillo uncovers a secret tied to his late partner’s final assignment—the identity of the guardian for her child, Iris Allen—setting a quiet but powerful mystery in motion. The issue’s dynamic art by Kolins, with inks by Hazlewood and colors by Sinclair and Digital Chameleon, brings emotional weight to every panel, while Brian Bolland and Jim Lee’s dual cover pencils deliver a striking, layered image that captures the story’s tension.
When Wally West’s friend Chunk is shot by a sniper, the impact creates a bizarre phenomenon—Chunk becomes a human black hole, warping reality around him. With time running out and the city in danger, Wally must plunge into the collapsing core of his friend’s body to retrieve the bullet and stop the threat before it consumes everything.
In a tense twist of fate, Flash [Wally West] finds himself racing against time as Gorilla Grodd breaks free during transport, unleashing chaos before being subdued—only to be met with a new threat from the shadows. Meanwhile, Pied Piper faces a crushing turn as he’s arrested for a crime he may not have committed, while Magenta watches from the sidelines, and Commissioner Kenyon [Goldface] struggles to keep order in a city on edge.
In "Smile for the Camera," Wally West faces a twisted test of will when the Pied Piper, under the influence of Joker venom administered by Merlyn, Deadshot, and Deadline, nearly turns on Captain Boomerang—now eerily warped by the toxin. With the Flash, Det. Fred Chyre, and Det. Jared Morillo caught in the chaos, the line between hero and villain blurs as a young woman, Linda Park, and others like Cliff and Doctor Tynell watch the situation spiral.
In "Peek-A-Boo," a desperate young woman named Lashawn Baez, known as Peek-A-Boo, takes a dangerous gamble to save her father—stealing a life-saving kidney meant for another, only to be stopped by Flash and Cyborg. Meanwhile, Det. Jared Morillo uncovers a hidden truth about his late partner’s final assignment: the identity of the guardian she chose for her child with Weather Wizard—someone named Iris Allen.
In "Fall Out," Wally West faces off against Fallout, a man whose very existence is a walking nuclear threat, as he grapples with the emotional weight of visiting his family's graves. Meanwhile, Blacksmith’s escalating campaign targets Flash’s allies, with Plunder sent to eliminate Det. Jared Morillo—setting off a chain of tension that pulls in Iris Allen, Linda Park, and even the older Flash, Jay Garrick, as the city teeters under unseen threats.
