Flash #139 p 5 (RARE PAGE FROM THE VERY 1ST REVERSE FLASH STORY!) LARGE ART - 1963

Check out this very nice SILVER AGE 1963 FLASH "FIRST APPEARANCE" issue page, which was penciled by the great Carmine Infantino, and inked by the great Joe Giella, from the story titled: "Menace of the Reverse-Flash!" With super-streamlined figure art by Infantino and Giella's dynamic inking, the Scarlet Speedster stars in the top 4 panels running in to check on what went wrong at the press conference with the Professor. Here we learn that something has gone incredibly wrong with the experiment, as the professor explains to The Flash that the atomic clock will turn into an atomic bomb in the time capsule that was sent! With this discovery, Flash must go to the 25th century, where he'll soon meet the "Reverse Flash" for the first time. Great shots of Flash in 4 of 6 panels from this key issue! The original Reverse-Flash, is inarguably one of the most distinct villains of DC's Silver Age. Though many heroes fought bizarro counterparts with mirrored powers, Eobard Thawne's unique backstory made him a genuine threat to the Scarlet Speedster and the man behind the mask, Barry Allen. Thawne pushed Barry to his limits, forcing the Flash to kill him in the heat of battle. Today, thanks in no small part to the popularity of the Flash TV series, the Reverse-Flash is rightly remembered as one of the Flash's fiercest foes, making his first appearance story art a must-have for fans and collectors alike.
