The Flash: The Silver Age, Vol. 1 by John Broome, Robert Kanigher
4.0
I haven't read many Flash comics before, and it was my first time reading Silver age stuff.
As you can expect from the 60s and older stories, they were a bit (much more ;) silly than the over serious tones of nowadays but it's so endearing.
Reading decades old stories just brings you the cultural history view and lots of fun!
I loved that this volumes includes lots of Flash villains, and that I got to see the paper view on Captain Cold and Gorilla Grodd, and also KID FLASH!!
The running jokes about Barry always being late for his dates with Iris cracks me up ;)
Sometimes she's definitely brutal with him, it's so funny!
In all I really enjoyed it all and will happily pick up more Flash in the future, to complement Barry's adventures on the small and big screen I already love!
