“At 13:57 local time, a low yield nuclear warhead exploded in the city of Chongjin, North Korea.
A long standing military target. Chongjin is home to some 532,000 men, women, and children.
This city has survived a number of wars. It will not survive this.
But her people will.
As 13:57 and .00001 microseconds, half a million Koreans seemed to materialize on a hilltop 35 miles away from the blast.
They were carried there . . .
One at a time, sometimes two . . .
At a hair's breadth short of the speed of light . . .
By one man . . .
The Flash. The Fastest Man Alive.”
― JLA, Vol. 14: Trial by Fire
