☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis massive black-and-white volume collects The Flash stories from the mid-1960s, reprinting issues #143–166 of the main series plus the Flash feature from The Brave and the Bold #66–67. It covers the tail end of the Silver Age for the Scarlet Speedster, featuring classic battles against the Rogues and the introduction of the cosmic treadmill. As part of DC's Showcase Presents line, it offers a budget-friendly way to experience these vintage adventures in their original form, albeit without color.
In "The Mystery of Flash's Third Identity!", Barry Allen faces a mind-bending threat when Gorilla Grodd hijacks the body of a zoo gorilla and begins manipulating Flash’s most dangerous enemies to turn against him—each move a step closer to seizing control of Barry’s mind. Written by John Broome and brought to life with dynamic art by Carmine Infantino and inks by Joe Giella, this 2009 Showcase Presents tale delivers a classic speedster showdown with a uniquely twisted twist. The cover, penciled by Infantino and inked by Murphy Anderson, captures the eerie intensity of Grodd’s scheme in bold, timeless style.
