SUMMARY:
Wally West at last agrees to help his landlord, the man who recently
delivered the powerless superhero an eviction notice, Middle Hampton
City Council President Gilchrist. Gilchrist's daughter has been taken
captive by Vandal Savage, although the immortal villain's ransom
demands seem to be just another element in one of his typically
complex ploys. With the help of Jerry McGee and new friend Mason
Trollbridge, Wally sets out to track Savage. The search, which takes
the three men on a tour through the shadows of a drug-ridden
underworld still reeling from the effects of Velocity 9, eventually
reveals the whereabouts of mobster Nick Bassaglia. The Flash's powers
of super-speed return to him just in the nick of time, allowing the
hero to barely avoid being killed by Bassaglia, although perhaps too
late to allow him to evade Vandal Savage's latest death trap.
