I’ve gotten a bit behind in these linkblogging round-ups, so I’m breaking the backlog up into categories. Here’s the first chunk of Flash-focused links from the last few weeks.

• The Silver-age Scarlet Speedster at Blastoff
• Francis Manapul art process for Flash #7 opening scene: tmblr.co/Z2siIxIbkMco
• 1940s DC Comics house ad for All-Flash, plugging the first appearance of Star Sapphire. bit.ly/yACXep
• Lego Batman 2 gets super-friends including Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash & others. That F’ing Monkey asks: Where’s the Flash LEGO?
• Angry Birds Space’s new look for blue birds seems oddly familiar (That F’ing Monkey)
• Flash wallets (That F’ing Monkey)

Flash and Others…

• 6 Psychotic Punishments Doled Out by Famous Superheroes (Cracked.com) – I was expecting to see Wally’s freezing of Inertia in here, but they went with the similar trap-Zoom-in-a-time-fissure ending from “Blitz.”
• 6 superheroes who got their powers from being lousy scientists (Not Cracked, as you might have expected, but Blastr, via @LongBeach_CC)
• Six Degrees of Comics: the Terrific Whatzit to Uatu the Watcher (CSBG)
• Sci-Fi & Fantasy shows that were ahead of their time (IO9)
• DC Comics’ film opportunities beyond Superman and Batman (Panels on Pages)

And finally, a reminder from @SpeedsterSite:

Hey retailers, you should know this by now but apparently, you don't. Never underestimate the power of an IMPULSE buy. #comics
