Flash Christmas Covers

Category: Covers — By Kelson @ 7:00 am

When I thought of doing this feature, I figured there would be more of these. But there are surprisingly few. Most of them, as it turns out, are from Comic Cavalcade back in the 1940s. None appeared during Barry Allen’s run, and only two during Wally West’s. (One of them I only included because the cover quoted “Jingle Bells.”) Impulse, however, managed three.

Interesting notes:

  • 5 feature Santa Claus.
  • 5 feature Christmas Trees.
  • 4 name the holiday.

I even went hunting for team books — Justice League, Teen Titans, Justice Society, etc. Oddly enough, I couldn’t find many that were both Christmas-themed and featured a Flash.

Thanks to the Grand Comics Database for the covers.

    I think it should be noted that 2 of them feature The Flash either halfway in or looking in a window ;)

    Merry Christamas, Kelson!! And a happy and prosporous New Year!

    Wonderful feature, making me realise how much I miss Impulse, once again.

    How about Teen Titans (first series) #13?

    Happy New Year, all!
