Where it came from
Published by DC Comics in September 1962, The Flash #131 is a notable entry in the Silver Age of comic books. This issue features the iconic story 'The Flash—The Human Thunderbolt' and is best remembered for the debut of the Elongated Man's wife, Sue Dibny, as well as the conclusion of a two-part narrative that solidified the era's focus on imaginative, science-fiction-infused superhero tales.
The creative team behind this issue included writer John Broome and artist Carmine Infantino. Infantino, whose sleek, dynamic visual style defined the Flash for a generation, sought to emphasize the character's kinetic energy through innovative panel layouts and perspective. The issue was well-received by readers of the time, contributing to the title's status as a cornerstone of the DC Universe throughout the 1960s.
