"When crime no longer paid, they sought payback. Captain Cold, Weather wizard, Mirror Master and Heat Wave-- each honed anger and personal tragedy into a life of crime. Individually, they might seem nothing more than hardened street thugs with fantastic toys. But as the Flash's Rogues, they are men capable of bringing the fastest human alive to a dead stop. The Rogues have been playing a twisted game with the Flash for years-- until they broke the rules. Now they're on the run as Keystone City's most wanted, and there's nothing they hate more than running. Now it's time for good old-fashioned revenge" -- p. [4] of pbk. cover.
