In "The Man Who Stole Central City!", the Flash finds himself in a bizarre situation when alien students from another dimension, observing Central City as part of a cosmic classroom exercise, decide to intervene when they see him in peril. Written by John Broome and brought to life by Carmine Infantino’s dynamic art and Joe Giella’s crisp inks, this 1969 classic features a unique twist on the hero’s usual solo battles. The cover by Ross Andru and Mike Esposito captures the surreal tension perfectly.
