American Update: Flash Forward! Early Silver Age Adventures, including 1st Pied Piper
*DC: Five of the earliest issues of Barry Allen’s Silver Age adventures (his title having begun, alert readers will remember, with #105, having taken over the numbering from the Golden Age Flash Comics). We open with #106 (pictured left), Barry’s second issue, with the debut of the Pied Piper, one of Barry’s longest-running classic foes (currently an occasional anti-hero in the Flash TV show), GD at £230. Issues #108 and #109 are Fair at £40 and £35 respectively, but #111 (pictured right) raises the bar with a VG- copy at £80 featuring one of the Flash’s more bonkers scenes – be fair though, you can’t go far wrong with ‘tough clouds spitting lightning’ to make you wonder what happens next! Finally, we wrap up this ‘Fab Flash Five’ with #116 in FA/GD p at £21.
