Pencil by Carmine Infantino, inked by Roder Rodriguez, with the issue being edited by

Ernie Colon, our story and one and only story in this very important issue, The Flash, is The Slayer and the Slane, written by Carrie Bates, pencil by Carmine, and Fantino, inked, by Dennis

Jensen, colored by Carl Gafford, lettered by Phil Felix, this is a very important issue.

This issue is a turning point in the entire series.

The series ends at 350.

It's starting with 324, we start a big, long storyline that's

going to really finish out the Flash's run. Barry Allen's run, Carrie Bates run. It's one of the

more memorable moments in Flash history. Let's get to the story. We begin. Nice sunny day,

Central City. A nurse is walking a baby in a carriage. She's telling the baby the

plot to a soap upper days of her lives. It's rather inane. It's really hot out. The sun is blaring.

She's on a very steep hill, dangerously steep. I wouldn't take a baby carriage on that steep of a hill.

She starts to get a little dizzy from the heat. She lets go of the carriage, bad, bad nurse.

It starts rolling down fast. Ronnie, the baby, isn't a tremendous amount of danger.

I mean, this is a sheer side. This would be impossible to walk up according to the art. She is freaking out, luckily. Someone nearby has superspeed, sees what's going on, and knows it's time for a hero to make a move. At this moment, we see at the bottom of this hill, two guys carrying a giant mirror. It's just like in the movies. The characters heading for the mirror. It's going to smash into it. I like that the two guys are watching this happen and they're talking about how expensive the mirror is. They're not trying to move out of the way. At this point we see, it's Kid Flash that's making move to save the kid. Now the Flash, Kid Flash grabs the carriage, but he doesn't have time to slow it down to get it out of the way of the mirror to turn it.

He just starts vibrating it so it passes through the mirror and a really great trick, which even Wally has to sort of sit back and admire what he's doing now.

When Wally, when Wally vibrates through something, he's not quite as good as Barry. It has a tendency to break and explode. And this, I think the guys just drop it in this case because it vibrates out of their hands when he passes through it. But maybe Wally blew it up. So the guys drop them here and it explodes sending shards everywhere. And instead the shards, it's a really cool sort of art thing.

It shows everything that's going on. The wedding that's being postponed. Fiona crying.

Flash and reverse Flash battling the entire thing. Kid Flash runs Ronnie back to the nurse.

He hits on the nurse for a little while. Run runs back to a nearby police officer and grabs his

tucks from him. You see, the officer was just holding Kid Flash's tucks, but he's on his way to a wedding, to which the officer congratulates him and Kid Flash is on the move. Now, Kid Flash is really late for the wedding. He's getting up to the church and he's freaking up, is he, the ceremony was supposed to start, you know, half an hour ago.
