Source Open Thread: Who's your Captain?

A hero is often defined by his or her  villains. And few heroes have villains as cool and colorful and flat out weird as the Flash.

The Rogues define the Flash and he  defines  them: Mirror Master, Heat Wave, Weather Wizard, the Trickster and most especially the two Captains Captain  Cold and  Captain Boomerang.

In FLASH 7, the  spotlight falls on Captain Boomerang. How did Boomererang first fall in with the Rogues? Why has he returned from the dead? And does he still have  what it takes to be a Rogue?

You'll find out the answers to  at least two  of those questions on Wednesday. In the meantime, FLASH fans, we'll leave you with a question or two of of our  own -- who's  your favorite Rogue? Digger? Or Cold? Or somebody else altogether?

An epic piece of BRIGHTEST DAY art

By now, you’ve seen a few of these lovely White Lantern covers, featuring Aquaman, Firestorm and more — but did you know that together, the covers form a massive, amazing piece of art that shows many of BRIGHTEST DAY’s key players while also teasing at what may be to come?

Featuring figures by the very talented Ryan Sook, with additional artistry from Fernando Pasarin and Joel Gomez (and a guiding hand from Co-Publisher Jim Lee, natch) the complete image is a true thing of beauty, and the perfect brain tease. What does it all mean? Too early to tell, but all the more reason to spend a few more minutes enlarging the image below.

They're back -- for a reason.

This isn't a time for words to adorn the pictures. Let's get right to the preview, courtesy of the superstar team of Geoff Johns, Peter J. Tomasi and artist Fernando Pasarin (along with those lovely covers from David Finch and Ivan Reis).
