So, for this year of 2021, we'll be taking a look back at the Rogues of the Golden Age Flash, Jay Garrick. And who better than the first group?
The Faultless Four consisted of Sieur Satan, Serge Orloff, Duriel, and Smythe.
All scientists, they decided to steal the newly developed atomic bombarder by kidnapping the inventor, Major Williams. They failed to count on the major's daughter calling her old college friend Jay Garrick, AKA the Flash!
Satan turns out to be aptly named though, as when the Flash finds their hideout Satan electrocutes the other three and tries to flee... in a car.
Against the Fastest Man Alive. Can't say he lacks for confidence.
Not terrible and the story does help establish the Flash, but again the sight of lumpy guys in suits is going to be one that sticks with us for a while.
