| 0:00.0 | Tom versus the Flash number 206 or Mike Eind's concert suggested I do the same thing, though, Ford College. |
| 0:08.8 | Welcome back to the Flash number 206, the May 1971 issue featuring a cover by Neil Adams with the entire issue edited by Julie Schwartz. |
| 0:18.2 | The first story in this issue is 24 hours of immortality, written by Robert |
| 0:23.2 | Kanigar, penciled by Irv Novick, inked by Murphy Anderson. We start an airplane high in the |
| 0:28.8 | cloudless sky with avatrix Susan Logan and her boy Timmy. She's practicing to win the grand |
| 0:36.2 | prize at the Sky Devil Circus, a $50,000 prize that will |
| 0:40.6 | allow Timmy to go to college. Now, I know, student loans, annoying, and they stick with you for a while. |
| 0:46.0 | I don't know if you need to win some sort of aerial daredevil thing to afford college. |
| 0:52.7 | You can get a student loan. It's not that bad. Different times. This is a time where you had to gamble to get to college. And that's what Susan Logan's going to do.

| 2:03.2 | were going to run into each other. Emerging from the crumpled burning cars, Dr. Candle, |
| 2:08.6 | with Sylvia's wife, dead, and him crying, emerging from the crashed plane. Unhurt, |
| 2:14.3 | Susan Logan carrying her little boy, Timmy, both dead. |
