The Flare is about to go out — but he’s determined to do so with a bang.
This fire-powered super-hero has just found out his powers are going to either liquefy him or cause him to explode with the power to take out a city.
He tries to stay cool, but he since he knows the end is near, he decides it’s time to get serious about super-villains and makes the switch from hero to vigilante.
But does he have enough time and power to take out his nemesis, Maelstrom, once and for all before he goes? And can he still make peace with the love of his life, the woman he left behind so many years ago?
Meltdown, written by David B. Schwartz and illustrated by Sean Wang, was one of the most impressive mini-series of 2006 and it now has a jam-packed collected edition with not only a great story, but scripts, sketches and much more.
