In every Look Back, we examine a comic book issue from 10/25/50/75 years ago (plus a wild card every month with a fifth week in it). This time around, we head back to December 1948 to see the Flash’s final story in Flash Comics.One of the oddities of the comic book series, Flash Comics, is that unlike, say, Action Comics or Sensation Comics (which, when they launched, starred, respectively, Superman and Wonder Woman), Flash Comics was named after its title character, the Flash. This was a little bit awkward, especially when the Flash received his own solo series, like Superman and Batman, as those characters simply had their comics called Superman and Batman, but what do you call Flash’s solo comic when the comic he’s already appearing in is titled Flash Comics? They settled on the slightly unsettling All-Flash Comics.An interesting aspect of the Flash’s debut comic book story is that after gaining super speed powers in Flash Comics (in a story by Gardner Fox and Harry Lambert), Jay Garrick went to his girlfriend, Joan Williams, and told her about them right away…
