Flash (Vol 1 1959) Issues 105-150
During issues 105-150 of The Flash, the series was prominently shaped by the collaborative writing efforts of John Broome and Gardner Fox, who crafted a foundational era for the Silver Age Flash, Barry Allen. This period featured iconic storylines that expanded the Flash's mythology, introducing key elements such as the Multiverse and a memorable rogues' gallery that became central to the character's identity. The visual style of the series was defined by Carmine Infantino's groundbreaking penciling, which brought dynamic motion and innovation to the depiction of super-speed, accompanied by the skilled inking of Joe Giella and Murphy Anderson. This team's work together not only defined the look and feel of The Flash but also set a high standard for comic book art during the Silver Age, making these issues a crucial part of the Flash’s and DC Comics’ history. Key issues include:
the Mirror Master (Issue #1), Grodd (Origin) & Pied Piper (#106), Kid Flash (Origin) & Weather Wizard (#110), Elongated Man (Origin) (#112), The Trickster (Origin) (#113), Captain Boomerang (Origin) (#117), The Top (Origin) (#122), Abra Kadabra (Origin)(#128), Reverse Flash (Professor Zoom) (Origin) (#139), Heat Wave (#140).
