After a short introduction, this book launches right into the meat, seventeen Flash comics! Starting with one Jay Garrick story (Flash Comics #104, February 1949), the book then switches to the Barry Allen Flash. Included are stories from Showcase #4 (10/1956), Showcase #8 (6/57), Showcase #13 (4/58), Showcase #14 (6/58), The Flash #105 (2/59), The Flash #106 (5/59), The Flash #107 (7/59), and the Flash #108 (9/59). The conclusion of the book is a one-pager with the biographies of seven Flash staffers.

These comics are beautifully reproduced, in their original sizes, and with better coloring and clarity than I remember from my youth. They are nothing short of works of art! Unlike the other Flash book (The Golden Age Flash), this one includes Flash battling super-villains, such as the Turtle Man (his first villain), Dr. Alchemy, and (most importantly) Grodd. A bit on the pricey side, this book is a wonderful collector's item, a must-have for all good fans of the Flash!
