The Flash #118

The Flash Vol. 1 #118 (1961)

This is the Silver Age vintage issue.

• The "Cover Error" Trivia: The cover was originally mislabeled with a blurb saying "A new Elongated Man Story!" In reality, the backup story features Kid Flash. This error was never corrected in the original printing, making it a fun "error" issue for your description.
• Synopsis:* "The Doomed Scarecrow!": The Flash travels to Hollywood to act as a stunt double for a movie about his own life! While there, he discovers that the lead actor, Steve Palmer, is being targeted by a mysterious saboteur. Barry has to save the production and protect his "double" without revealing his secret identity to Iris, who is also on set for a scoop.
  • "The Midnight Peril!": A Wally West (Kid Flash) solo story. To join a high school fraternity, Wally and his friend Pete must spend the night in a "haunted house." Wally discovers the "ghosts" are actually crooks and has to take them down while keeping his friend in the dark.
