Flash Comics foi uma revista em quadrinhos (banda desenhada, em Portugal) antológica publicada pela All-American Publications e depois pela National Periodicals (DC Comics). O título teve 104 edições publicadas de Janeiro de 1940 a Fevereiro de 1949. Apesar do nome do quadrinhos ser Flash Comics, Flash era apenas uma das muitas séries diferentes incluídas na revista.

Histórico da publicação

A série estreou em Janeiro de 1940 cf. data da capa^[^{carece de fontes?]} e a primeira edição trouxe as primeiras aparições das versões da Era de Ouro do Flash,^[1] Gavião Negro,^[2] e Johnny Trovoada.^[3] O Flash estrelou a série de quadrinhos, All-Flash, que teve 32 edições entre Junho de 1941 e Dezembro de 1948.^[^{carece de fontes?]}

A longa associação do artista Joe Kubert com o personagem Gavião Negro começou com a história "The Painter and the $100,000" em Flash Comics #62 (Fevereiro de 1945).^[4] O Monóculo foi introduzido na #64 como um novo inimigo do Gavião Negro.^[5]

O primeiro trabalho publicado de Carmine Infantino para a DC foi "The Black Canary", um história de seis-páginas de Johnny Trovoada em Flash Comics #86 (Agosto de 1947) que apresentou a super-heroína Canário Negro.^[6] Os escritores Robert Kanigher e Joe Kubert criaram a Espinho na edição #89 (Novembro de 1947).^[7]

Flash Comics foi cancelada em 1949 na edição #104.^[^{carece de fontes?]} Quando a DC Comics deu ao Flash da Era de Prata, sua própria revista em quadrinhos, que continuou a antiga numeração da Flash Comics, começando na edição #105.^[8]
