Where it came from
Published by DC Comics in May 1966, The Flash #160 stands as a notable entry in the Silver Age of comics. Written by John Broome with iconic pencils by Carmine Infantino, the issue continues the creative momentum of the era, which focused on high-concept science fiction narratives and the expansion of the Rogues gallery. The story, titled 'The Flash’s Urge to Kill', reflects the imaginative, often quirky tone that defined the mid-1960s Flash run under editor Julius Schwartz.
The visual identity of this era is inextricably linked to Carmine Infantino, whose sleek, kinetic layouts redefined how speed was illustrated on the printed page. His approach favored clean lines and a sense of motion that complemented the technical, gadget-heavy storytelling typical of Broome’s scripts. Like many issues of the time, it was produced as mass-market entertainment for a youthful audience, yet it is now studied for the profound influence Infantino’s stylistic choices had on the aesthetic of the DC Universe throughout the decade.
