Description

Step right into the Silver Age of Comics with this thrilling Giant issue of *The Flash* No. 196, dated May 1970! The cover boldly declares this as an adventure packed with 'sensational super-speed stunts of the fastest man alive!' Featuring art and stories by legendary creators Carmine Infantino, Joe Giella, and John Broome, this iconic DC comic stars Barry Allen, the Scarlet Speedster himself. From its vibrant cover to the retro advertisements on the back - want to sell seeds for prizes, anyone? - this piece is a time capsule of comic-book history. While showing some gentle handling and edge wear, just imagine the countless fans flipping through these pages during the early ‘70s. Don't let this piece of superhero lore speed past you!
