Moment of the Day - Barry's Big Death

Crisis on Infinite Earths #8, by Marv Wolfman and George Perez

Barry's iconic death that took nearly 25 years for DC to reverse. I don't really know if it even happened anymore, but it did set the standard for how superheroes are supposed to go down swinging.

Moment of the Day - Stops on a Dime

DC: The New Frontier #2, by Darwyn Cooke

It's hard to convey time when it comes to the speedsters, so using dialogue to show just how fast Barry is going is a great touch. I kind of think I should do a New Frontier week of moments, there's more than enough of them.

Moment of the Day - Fastest Amazo Takedown Ever

JLA: The Nail #2, by Alan Davis

Flash takes down Amazo in record time because he's had a bad day, which makes you wish he had bad days more often. The Nail is a really good Elseworlds story that takes the idea of what would happen in the DCU if  Ma and Pa Kent did not find Clark in the Kansas field that night because they had a nail in their tire. Changes then happen in the universe that are far more dire but at the same time not completely dark and hopeless like other Elseworld stories. It's a good read with lovely art, check it out if you haven't.

Moment of the Day - Why Fly When You Can Run?

Flash/Green Lantern: Brave & The Bold #1, by Mark Waid, Tom Peyer, and Barry Kitson

Barry must have had stacks of paperwork to be so behind that even at super speed he still missed his flight. I'd like to think this is why the JLA teleporter was invented.
