Tom versus the Flash number 110 or, well yes, I do have a miniature version of my own costume for you.

Welcome back for the Flash number 110, the January 1960 issue featuring a cover.

Penciled by Carmen Am Fantino and inked by Joe Gale. It's one of my favorite covers because I love how the wave of water is coming

and like the angle and the flash's arm is spinning around.

Look it up.

It actually pops up with this.

It's one of the first really fun ones.

They get really quite creative.

And I just wanted to point that out.

Our first story of this issue is entitled Challenge of... really quite creative. And I just wanted to point that out.

Our first story of this issue is entitled,

Challenge of the Weather Wizard,

written by John Broome pencil by Carmen Anteno,

Inc. by Murphy Anderson, and edited by Julie Schwartz.

We open this issue with Barry Allen in his lab lab reading a paper like he does all the time.

He never seen him actually do work. And he's thinking about how Iris broke up with him recently because he was always showing up late.

And she agreed to take him back only if he could show up on time for 12 consecutive dates.

I mean, what a ballbuster. She's got to have something going on if Barry's willing to deal with all this stuff to go out with her. He's a little bit

late all the time. I don't understand what the big problem is. Well, he's made it to 11 consecutive dates.

And today's the 12th one, and he realizes he's got to get a move on to get there on time.

But as he's about to walk out, he hears over the police scanner that a cloudburst has just struck downtown central city, endangering people.

I don't know how a cloudburst would endanger people, I guess lightning sort of, like a sudden thunderstorm.
