“The Flash Stakes His Life -- On -- You!”

In "The Flash Stakes His Life -- On -- You!", the Flash faces his most personal challenge yet when inventor Ben Haddon unleashes a device that erases Central City’s memory of him—leaving only a homeless girl, the one he helped that day, to remember. Written by John Broome and brought to life by Carmine Infantino’s dynamic art and Joe Giella’s sharp inks, this 1966 classic explores identity, trust, and the quiet impact of heroism. The cover by Carmine Infantino and Joe Giella captures the moment’s intensity with striking precision.
