Some of the characters appearing on the cover are unclear. Icicle could be either the original or his son. The figure between the "F" and "L" of the logo and above Abra Kadabra looks like it's supposed to be the Shade.

As with the cover, there are a few of the cameo villains that are out of place: Cobalt Blue, at least the version seen here, died prior to this story; and the Icicle depicted was also dead long before this story. Both may be legacy characters, however, the original Icicle's son has a markedly different look and has not directly acted against a Flash.
