Heroclix Crisis: Sculpting At The Speed of Sound
The next expansion of WizKids’s DC HeroClix, Crisis, lays on the accelerator with the Flash. Okay, so we all know the Flash, he’s the twitchy dude in red jammies who always gets minis made of him that look like hood ornaments—and who totally ROCKS in Justice League. No more hackneyed plastic poses for DC’s iconic speed demon, though! One of the new sneak peaks of Crisis reveals the Flash bolting along, speeding so fast he takes up multiple bases—even if it does kind of look like he's tripping in the first base. Check out the decisions behind the too-cool and too-fast-for-one-base mini, along with more previews of Crisis, over at WizKids.com.

I wouldn't settle for just the first base with him either... haha... ha.
Nah, I hear he's a less than a minute man. ^_~
He's "tripping" on first base for a reason.
"Then, finally, it was done, right around the time we were working on the dials for the set. Not only does the sculpt capture the Flash, it captures his actual sacrifice in Crisis—Barry Allen running himself to death to save the universe."
;-)
So, there's some comic out there where the Flash trips, smearing his body across three continents like the world's longest and goriest roller coaster? Hot! :P
Sounds like it happens in the old Crisis on Infinite Earths. You know how they liked to kill off superheroes back then.
I have to admit to being a bad comic book geek since I've never actually read Crisis. Maybe one of the Pink Kryptonite boys can fill us in?
