Who are the Stillness? Meet the strange new race menacing the Flash
The Flash #2 continues the series' ✨new cosmic horror direction

Si Spurrier and Mike Deodato Jr.'s run on 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Flash got off to a flying start last week with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:a terrific #1 that radically shifted the tone of the speedster's adventures, moving things in an eerie cosmic horror direction. Now DC haveꦕ released 🎉a teaser for #2 which promises to introduce a mysterious new race of entities known as the Stillness.
Here's the publisher's synopsis for the issue:
"As Wally West faces massively powered-up old foe💦s as well as a new, mysterious being, he encounters a group of alien explorers who are very interested in Wally’s powers (which continue to glitch). Also, something seems to be literally bubbling up in Keystone City, as the new era for the Scarlet Speedster continues!"
You can check out some unlettꦿered pages from the issue in the gallery below, which show Deodato Jr.'s famous "Mondrian panels" in full 🌜effect.




But w꧅ho exactly arꦓe the Stillness? Si Spurrier had this to say on the new species:
"The Stillness: explorers, of a sort. These ineffable entities stretch our understanding of what it is to be a sentient being in this universe, existing in multiple planes of reality and enjoying - let's say - a mischievous relationship with time and space. Their ওunderstanding of what we know as "the speed force" far exceeds that of any existing Flash or earthbound scientist, hence their enigmatic (and dire) assessment of Wally West's abilities. And yet, more worrying still, is that for all their immeasurable power their main goal is to attract the attention of an even higher form of life.
At the lofty cosmic levels of beings like the Stillness, mundane concepts like 'good' and 'evil' don't have much meaning. That theseไ creature have even stooped to notice a mere human, like Wally West, is extraordinary. What they choose to do about him will be even wilder still..."
