Tom versus the Flash number 160 or has nobody thought of giving Antelope Boy some pants?

Welcome back to the Flash number 160 to April, 1966 issue, featuring a cover pencil by Carmine

and Fantino, inked by Murphy Anderson, and the entire book is edited by Julie Schwartz in its

totality. And why is that

important? Because this is a special reprint issue. It's an 80-page giant flash issue. This is

something that DC Comics would pull out every once in a while. I don't know if they were

behind deadlines or it was a promotional thing. They're kind of cool. For someone who likes buying old books, I always keep an eye out for the 80-page or 100-page giants. So within these 80-page giant issues, you would have reprints of Barry Allen stories, Kid Flash stories, but also you would get reprints of Golden Age stories, which is pretty cool. I'm not going to go over the Barry Allen stories that I've

Jay Garrick and the Johnny Quick Stories that we get in this issue. So the first story in the

issue is The Amazing Race Against Time, which is a reprint from Flash number 107. Our second story

is the Jay Garrick story, a duet of danger, reprinted from all flash

number 32, which is from December, January slash 1947. Written by Robert Canninger, penciled by

Lee Elias, inked by Mo Wortham, and edited by Sheld. We, it's the first appearance of the Fiddler.

We start in Keystone City for a change,

where a cop car slowly overtaking a car filled with criminals.

How do we know they're criminals?

They're wearing suspicious-looking hats.

They're shooting guns at the cops.

People are ducking out of the way on the street, and just as the cops are able to pull right up to the criminal's car, another car

jams its way in between them. A normal sedan, perhaps a Studebaker? No, this is a custom

job, but it looks like a fiddle. Red leather interior, crazy man driving it, hit the stem, it's got

headlights. It's weird looking. The cops start telling this guy, get your car away, stop playing
