American Comics Update: Six Of The Best: Silver Age Flash
*DC: When Flash was relaunched in 1959, with Barry Allen now in the lead role, the artistic duties fell to Carmine Infantino, who pencilled every issue from #105 to #174. If ever an artist was made for a title, it was here. His speeding hero, fabulous cityscapes, gorgeous women, and dynamic and colourful villains characterised the Silver Age Flash. We have six issues new in from Infantino’s mid-period, spotlighting some classic villains from Flash’s Rogues Gallery: the Top, the Trickster, the Weather Wizard and Captain Cold. There is also a Kid Flash appearance, a Green Lantern team up in #143 and the debut of one of my favourite Flash supporting characters in #145: Doralla Kon, The Girl From The Super-Fast Dimension.
