“The Pied Piper's Double Doom!”

In "The Pied Piper's Double Doom!", The Flash and The Elongated Man find themselves caught in a bizarre criminal web, each forced by a mysterious musical mind to commit robberies they can't remember—until their paths cross while investigating the same crimes. Written by Gardner Fox and brought to life by Carmine Infantino’s dynamic art and Joe Giella’s sharp inks, this 1963 classic sees the two heroes unravel a clever scheme tied to a master manipulator’s hypnotic tunes. The cover by Carmine Infantino and Murphy Anderson captures the eerie, musical menace of the Pied Piper’s latest trap.
