*DC: After #123 (‘Flash of Two Worlds’, as if you need telling), and the premier issue (#105), probably the most in-demand issue of the Silver Age Flash is #139, which featured the first appearance of Professor Zoom, the Reverse-Flash, Barry Allen’s super-swift nemesis from the far-flung future, whose appearances in the popular Flash television series have caused his early appearances to zoom (sorry) upwards in value. We are delighted to welcome the Reverse-Flash back into our inventory – though we anticipate not for long. This is a very presentable pence stamped copy, with great cover colour and gloss, tight, firmly-attached staples, a little corner blunting and off-white to white pages. Edge wear is very minor; there are a couple of creases across the bottom right corner which break colour, but these are not very noticeable. A beautiful issue by Carmine Infantino, full of his wonderful future city scapes and crowned with the shades of blue and purple on the cover that only DC could produce.
