About the series
In this 2001 one-shot from DC, writer Geoff Johns and artist Ethan Van Sciver take readers inside Iron Heights, the state-of-the-art super-prison that houses Central City's most dangerous rogues. Serving as a deep dive into the facility's history, design, and infamous inmate roster, the issue expands the Flash's world by giving a chilling, character-driven look at the villains who define his rogues' gallery. It's a key piece of Johns' foundational work on the Flash mythos, establishing Iron Heights as a grim mirror to the hero's own high-speed justice.
