With the arrival of Season 2 of The Flash, we celebrate the Barry and Jay Show!
Big fan of The Flash, I am. I thought Season 1 was terrific and I’m really excited for the premiere of Season 2 — and the appearance of Jay Garrick aka the Golden Age Flash aka the Flash of Earth-2.
Teddy Sears joins Grant “Barry Allen” Gustin in the CW premiere 10/6 at 8 p.m. ET. So what better way to celebrate than with a 13 COVERS salute to the Barry and Jay partnership?
By the way, Vandal Savage appears on a lot of these. Vandal Savage is the big villain in the forthcoming Arrow/Flash spinoff DC Legends of Tomorrow. Hmmm.
(The usual caveat applies: This is a subjective list and not a ranking of any kind. This is pretty much what I dig and you may feel very differently. So, rather than beef about a cover you don’t see, instead join in the fun and share your own choices in the comments section or in whatever social-media thread you saw this.)
Carmine Infantino/Murphy Anderson, of course.
