DescriptionThe grail of the Heritage auction! There were 3 pieces I really wanted, and this was the lead! Barry Allen/The Flash is my all time favorite character! So lucky that I was able to get.Two of the Flash's rogue-est rogues from his infamous Rogues Gallery are featured on this cover, as Mirror Master and the Top have the Flash locked up for "The Million Dollar Deathtrap!"

I remember this cover very, very, well. But even though I certainlyl recognized its significance, I must admit that the only reason I bought the issue (and the two preceding ones) was because of the GL/GA backup stories by Neal. Still, if you're a Flash fan and a Cardy fan, it doesn't get much better. Congratulations!

If I could "like" this more than once I would! These 70s Flash covers by Cardy are amazing!

Superb piece, this was maybe my favorite and most memorable of those cool 1970s Flash covers when I was a child.

Gorgeous early Bronze Age Flash! Love Cardy's work here. He always knew how to set up a scene in the simplest, yet most effective manner! Fantastic pick-up!

A perfect combination of The Flash, two members of the Rogues Gallery (including my personal favorite The Mirror Master) and Nick Cardy art, Really nice Nick.

Wow, that is one clean Cardy cover from 1972 (my earliest reading days), and perfect for Flash, congrats!

Such a memorable cover, brilliantly executed by Cardy. It was a great choice, as it's one of those covers that sums up everything the comic is about - the hero caught, and the casually smug villains. Brilliant.
