“Down with the Flash!”

In "Down with the Flash!", the Flash faces a chilling new threat when an unseen enemy manipulates ordinary citizens into attacking the Flash Museum, turning everyday people into his foes. Barry Allen discovers a surprising twist in his legal defense when his new lawyer, Cecile Horton, reveals her deep-seated resentment—only taking his case because her partner had already been targeted by a bomb meant for Barry. Written by Cary Bates and brought to life with bold art by Carmine Infantino, inks by Frank McLaughlin, and colors by Carl Gafford, this 1984 issue blends personal tension with high-stakes action. The cover, penciled by Infantino and inked by Dick Giordano, captures the moment of chaos with striking intensity.
