One of Hal's two most famous friendships starts here and takes off so much it's back ported into being a thing for Alan and Jay as well.
Man, that wording yeah I get why someone reading it would take it that way.
The universe just hates Hal's head.
They really loved the 'universes separated by vibrations' thing. Though it did add a distinct flair to DC universe.
Such as it was at this point. honestly it's not till the 80's as writers like Wolfman started coming over from Marvel that there was a real effort to create a connected universe the way Marvel had.
What a twist!
Adding a helmet to the uniform might not have been a bad idea.
Hal really turns on a dime to being not himself compared to the last page.
They never do explain what he does with the gloves when he was wearing his uniform under his clothing back in the day.
it would be a while before they really started to expand on Terga. A shame since when they did it helped fill the cast out a bit.
Man, living in a Superhero world must just be surreal.
Yeah, the whole suction pulling the uniform in never made much sense to me, but it's far from the most out-there thing about the Flash so...
The Simpsons comic books had a parody of this with Richard Nixon. It was called "Relevant comics"
"So how was your day honey?"
"Well, I saw Green Lantern give the Flash a giant head and carry him off."
"That's nice had to deal with alien invasion blocking traffic."
honestly, that adds up as it reads like a three-fold dig, Green Lantern of course in the early 70's was doing the "Relevancy comics" And one of those had a little girl who is a caricature of Richard Nixon. the jowls on that child...
Or how enormous his feet must seem if he's wearing dress shoes over a pair of boots,
I've tried pointing my fist at my face like Hal does when looking at his ring... I don't advise it.
I know that cover layout.
I'll show you mine if you show me yours.
Time for Sonar.
Fairly sure this is the only time anything is made of Tom's stamp collection. Wait... hmmmm maybe one other time. Anyway really pulling a Steve Canyon with the pipe there huh Hal?
Just some casual mind reading.
such a delightful motivation.
Also a great costume.
Yes vibrations in the human brain, this makes perfect sense.
Love the guy pointing at Hal; clearly confused about what just happened.
Look how happy he is!
More fun with the Jordan brothers.
What are the odds? Well, it's a comic so quite high that the thing able to cause the most misunderstandings would be around.
Gee where could this be headed?
Jack never really gets a chance to shine as much as Jim.
Guess it runs in the family.
A real flair for the dramatic.
Are you an alien?
No just a philatelists
what a dork.
And another villain still satsfied even as they are put away.
Time for Hal to return the favor to Barry and pop over to his book.
Of course with the same writer and the same inker, who tends to somewhat homogenize the people he inks these sorts of crossovers bearly feel like reading a differnt book.
Just, talking about your secret IDs out in public, brilliant.
Hal being good at pool feels right.
