☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects The Flash #189-200, #202-213, and #215-219, reprinting the Silver Age adventures of Barry Allen, the Fastest Man Alive, in black-and-white on low-cost paper. These stories from the late 1960s and early 1970s feature classic Rogues like Captain Cold, the Mirror Master, and the Trickster, as well as team-ups with other DC heroes. It's part of DC's Showcase Presents line, designed to offer a budget-friendly way to read extensive runs of vintage comics.
In "The Flash Stakes His Life -- On -- You!", the Flash races against time when inventor Ben Haddon unleashes a device that erases Central City’s memory of him—leaving only a homeless girl, the one he once saved, who still remembers. With the city’s trust in him gone and no one to believe his warnings, the Flash must rely on her alone to stop a threat no one else can see.
In "The Day Magic Exposed Flash's Secret Identity!", Flash finds himself entangled in a time-twisting mystery when a 64th Century Policeman arrives in the present to arrest Abra Kadabra—only to reveal the villain’s shocking origin: he’s from the future. As the Flash races to unravel the truth behind the criminal’s timeline, he realizes that the line between hero and villain may be far more fragile than he ever imagined.
In "Tempting Target for the Temperature Twins!", The Flash finds himself in a tight spot after spraining his ankle saving lives in a burning building—only to be ambushed by Captain Cold and Heat Wave. The sudden clash of freezing and scorching forces throws his body into a strange, unexpected rhythm, turning their chaotic assault into an unlikely cure.
In "Here Lies The Flash -- Dead and Unburied," Dr. Light unleashes a terrifying new tactic, using light itself as a mask to become anyone—or nothing at all—turning the Flash’s greatest speed into a trap. As the hero races through illusions that blur identity and reality, the line between foe and phantom begins to vanish.
In "The Race to the End of the Universe!", Superman and The Flash are pushed to their limits when two enigmatic aliens, Rokk and Sorban, challenge them to a high-stakes race across the cosmos. As the speedsters hurtle through impossible landscapes, Superman begins to suspect the aliens' true motives—and soon finds himself teaming up with The Flash to outwit traps and evade danger. The finish line looms, but the real test may be who's behind the mask.
