The Flash #4

Part of DC's 2010 Brightest Day crossover event, this issue of The Flash arrives with a striking cover by Francis Manapul — a massive, icy fist clutches a golden police badge, and reflected within it is the scarlet speedster himself surrounded by what appear to be law-enforcement figures closing in around him. The tagline says it all: "The Flash: Under Arrest!" — a provocative image that suggests Barry Allen's heroism has somehow put him on the wrong side of the law. Geoff Johns and Manapul make a compelling creative team, and this fourth chapter of "The Dastardly Death of the Rogues" promises the kind of sharp superhero storytelling that made this run a fan favorite in 2010.
