Plot Summary
The critically-acclaimed FLASH team of writer Geoff Johns and artist Scott Kolins reunites for a tale of villainy and twisted justice tying in to FINAL CRISIS! Captain Cold and the Rogues were accessories to the murder of Bart Allen. They've become what they never set out to be – wanted! Wanted by the good guys, by former Rogue Pied Piper, and by the Secret Society of Super-Villains. But just as they try to disappear underground, good, old-fashioned revenge yanks them back. And where is the Flash during all of this? It's a Crisis — take a guess.

Story Arc
Book One
It was slim pickins this week, and the only comic that really stood out at all was this one. It was enjoyable, the rogues backing out of crime and then being forced back in. I was a big fan of the artwork, however, one of my buddies despised it, which brought on an hour long debate. I recommend picking it up, it's a small week for books. Get the Cold cover, it reminds me of Darwyn Cooke's work.
Book One
I have to admit to not really liking the red covers for The Finalbooks. So I got the Captain Cold one.
The Rogues Gallery has always been one of my favorite villain teams. I like the fact that there was never any real "world domination" plots. They knew their place and were happy to be where they were.
Also the brotherly bond between them give them a touch of humanity other villain teams are not allowed. Ultimately you get to see them as a family as much as any other superhero team.
This book is just one more chapter in that story adding a lot to the Mythos. To date. This is my favorite of the Final Crisis spin offs.
