The Flash TV Show from 1990 was special for comic book fans. Growing up as a young comic book fan in the '80s and '90s was not easy. All you current comic fans have it so easy. I grew up in the dark times, my friends. We were glad when anything comic book related was on movies and TV. We were so desperate that we would make excuses for anything.
Superman 3? Hey, he gets to fight an evil Superman!
Generation X? Look they’re in the X-mansion!
Howard the Duck? Yeah….I got nothing.

But every once in a while someone would get it right. Richard Donner’s Superman started it but it was Tim Burton’s Batman film in 1989 that started to change things. Sure we would eventually get duds like Batman & Robin, but we also had Batman The Animated Series and Blade. Yet for a long time, there was one TV show that was mostly ignored for years. It wasn't until 28 years later that it was showered with love and truly appreciated for all it did to comic book media. I am of course talking about The Flash TV series from 1990.

Yes, long before Grant Gustin raced into comic book fan's TV sets in 1994, there was another scarlet speedster who was the trailblazer for the speed force. So before we see yet another Flash break the sound barrier, let's talk about the original, and to me the best hero to wear the lightning bolt. In this episode of Gone But Not Forgotten.
