About the series
In the lead-up to the Flashpoint event, DC’s 2011 miniseries Flashpoint: The Legion of Doom reimagines the classic villain team as a brutal gang of rogues, led by a ruthless Captain Cold and including a monstrous Black Adam and a feral Gorilla Grodd. Written by Adam Glass with art by Rodney Buchemi, this three-issue series explores the dark, war-torn alternate timeline where these villains band together not for conquest, but for survival against a world on fire. It matters as a key piece of the Flashpoint puzzle, showing how even the worst of the worst are forced to adapt when reality itself is breaking apart.
