Description

One of my all time favorite artists is Irv Novick! His Flash and Batman were incredibly well executed! One of the best artists who has graced comics.

This splash features ALL of the Flash's best Rogues using dialogue associated with their weapons/powers. It's just fantastic! And this was back in the day where DC did something really cool - they had the crux of the story in the first splash page and you wanted to read what led up to it and what happened after.

Story title and info and creative: If I Can't Rob Central City, NOBODY Can!
Script by Cary Bates, pencils by Irv Novick, inks by Frank McLaughlin; The Rogues find out that the Top has died, but he's forced them to find the six pieces of a bomb or Central City will be destroyed. Dust of the Earth!,

My favorite comic character and one of my favorite artists and a milestone issue! Talk about lucky. This is one of my favorite pieces of art in the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh wow, I'm incredibly envious of your amazing find! The Top's my favourite character and I love this page so much...plus, Rogue puns are well loved by old-school Rogue fans, so this is a great acquisition.

Wow! I had just started collecting the Flash when this issue hit the stands and it brings back fond memories. Irv will always be my favorite Flash artist. Awesome page of the Rogues Gallery. Thanks so much for sharing it.
