QUOTE:
"All I wanted was a city... Just one little city to
rule. Keystone was dying... Nobody wanted it except me! I did everything
to keep you away, but still you came! You see, it was our fates! I was
destroyed by the first of the Flashes... I will be the death of the
last. Goodbye." —The Turtle |

SUMMARY: The Flash has gone missing after relocating to
Keystone City. Mason Trollbridge has gathered together an eclectic group
of Wally West's friends to scour the city for clues relating to his
disappearance, a group that includes the Pied Piper, the Chunk, the
Elongated Man, Manhunter, Connie Noleski, the Kapitalist Kouriers, Tina
and Jerry McGee, Heat Wave, Captain Cold, and Golden Glider. Meanwhile,
the Flash finds himself helpless in the grip of the Turtle, trapped in a
stasis field that both incapacitates him and subjects him to traumatic
delusions. Even as Wally's closest friends find their rescue efforts
being hampered by their differences and petty disputes, a rift begins to
form between the megalomaniacal Turtle and his eager partner in crime,
the Turtle Man. Despite his long-term plans and carefully crafted
conspiracies, the Turtle's underground empire in Keystone City may be
brought down by most unexpected opposition.
