SUMMARY: The Flash and his wily attorney, Benjamin
Harrison Hayes, are planning to establish a number of faux charity
organizations in order to ensure that he receives his share of the
Icicle's inheritance. Regardless of their plans, the fastest man alive
must fight a legal battle with Doyle Christie, the Icicle's greedy
granddaughter. At a hearing held to contest the late supervillain's
will, both Wally and Doyle are unexpectedly abducted. They find
themselves in the dilapidated, abandoned lair of the Turtle, a space
that has appropriated for the homeless masses of Keystone City by the
Pied Piper. The humanitarian vigilante is interested in teaching Wally
and Doyle a lesson about those less privileged than them. After
experiencing the plight of homeless men and women and less-than
fortunate metahumans, the Flash vows to use his share of the inheritance
to establish a legitimate charity, the Barry Allen Foundation. Doyle
Christie, however, doesn't seem to have understood the Piper's message.
With her share of the money, she plans to try her hand at a glorious
life of crime-fighting as the all-new Icicle.
