Tom versus Flash number 184 or in the future internet forms will be awesome because no one can be insulted.

Welcome back to the Flash number 184, the December 1968 issue entitled Executioner of Central City,

written by Frank Robbins, penciled by Ross Andrew, inked by Mike Esposito, and edited by Julie Schwartz, featuring a cover pencil by Ross Andrew and inked by Mike Esposito. That's right. You're about to hear about the most tragic day in the life of the flesh up to this point. Worse things will happen to him. But it's a pretty bad day. I think it ends all right, though. We start the Mount Vista ionospheric observatory, just outside of Central City.

Well, they also pick up energy signals. The place is headed up by a Dr. Clark.

And one of the things they do there is they're looking for pulsars.

And those are sons that get off rhythmic beats of energy.

10 billion times greater than all the power generated on Earth.

That's not good.

Well, in Central City, we see Iris needs the car for the day to go up to Mount Vista Radio

Observatory.

She drops off Barry at the police station so we can get to work.

They have some hip Frank Robbins talk back and forth to each other, mention of space dust

laden with methane.

Sounds like something the kids would have been into.

We didn't see Iris at the observatory talking to Dr. Clark.

They have some more hip talk between them.

Dr. Clark lets on that something very unusual is going on.

The same technician that noticed the burst earlier has just gotten verification from

the Mount Everest station. Where is it on Mount Everest? There's no station I'm on the guest in the DC
