DC has released the full complement of variant covers for the upcoming milestone issue Flash #750, and you can see them all at Newsarama. There’s a cover to mark each decade of the Flash’s existence, and each one has different artists and is appropriately themed for that decade. Shown at left is the 1940 Jay Garrick cover by Nicola Scott and Annette Kwok, and the 1980 Crisis-themed cover by Gabriele Dell’Otto can be seen below. All the rest can be seen at the link, featuring various Flashes and Flash villains over the years, so be sure to check them out!

Earth-11 Flash and a Multiverse of Colonels (KFC)
Remember Colonel of Two Worlds, the KFC promotional comic in which Colonel Sanders’ evil doppelganger from Earth-3, Colonel Sunder, tried to take over KFC (with Captain Cold and Mirror Master) to make it terrible?
They made another one. This time, Col. Sunder has stolen the memories of the secret herbs and spices from 11 Colonels across the multiverse: Each Colonel can only remember one ingredient, and with the Flash of Earth-11, they have to travel the multiverse to reassemble the recipe.
It’s as crazy as it sounds, with Koln-El of the Kingdom Come Earth (the K stands for Kryptonian), Colonel Lad of the Legion of Super-Heroes (with Impulse!), Bizarro Colonel, Red Son Colonel from the USSR, an Earth’s End Colonel who is actually a chicken. There’s even a Teen Titans Go Colonel.
I think we actually see more of Earth-11 Flash here than we did in the Superwoman/Batwoman special she was introduced in. I found myself hoping we’d actually learn her name. I’ve always been inclined to call her Barbara Allen, but there’s nothing canon as far as I know.
Actually the whole thing is oddly reminiscent of Countdown, except fun.
I’m not sure if it’s available in comic shops or if it’s a convention special like last year’s NYCC giveaway, but you can read it for free on ComiXology.
