The Flash #196

This 1970 Giant-size DC collection puts the Scarlet Speedster front and center, his red-and-gold costumed figure looming large as four inset panels around him promise the "Sensational Super-Speed Stunts of the Fastest Man Alive" — circling the Earth eight times in one second, splitting into three Flashes, punching a criminal into the future, and appearing maskless in public. Murphy Anderson's cover art showcases the breadth of what Barry Allen can do, teasing a terrific lineup of reprinted adventures. It's a satisfying package for any fan who wants a concentrated dose of the Fastest Man Alive in one oversized issue.
