This volume collects the landmark storyline from the 1980s in which the Flash (Barry Allen) is put on trial for the murder of the Reverse-Flash. Presented in DC's black-and-white Showcase Presents format, it reprints The Flash #323-350 and issues from other series that tie into the trial saga, showcasing a pivotal legal and moral crisis for the Scarlet Speedster.
In "Run, Flash — Run for Your Wife!", Barry Allen faces a shocking verdict in a trial that turns the Flash’s justice into a courtroom mystery. With the rogues uncovering a twist that Abra-Kadabra is masquerading as Professor Zoom, and a future juror’s true mission coming to light, the speedster’s fate hangs in the balance. Written by Cary Bates and illustrated by Carmine Infantino, with inks by Frank McLaughlin and letters by Tim Harkins, this 2011 Showcase Presents issue features cover art by Carmine Infantino and Klaus Janson.
