The Flash #129

The Flash Vol. 1 #129 (1962)

• The Mega Key: Second meeting of Barry Allen and Jay Garrick.
• Major Historical Milestone: First Silver Age appearance of the Justice Society of America (JSA).
• Key Fact: This issue effectively "revived" the Golden Age heroes (including Hawkman, Atom, Black Canary, Dr. Mid-Nite, and Green Lantern) for a new generation, leading directly to the annual JLA/JSA crossovers.

Synopsis

• "Double Danger on Earth!": Barry Allen decides to visit Jay Garrick on Earth-2 for a "vacation," but he arrives to find that Jay has been captured! A trio of classic villains— The Trickster(from Earth-1), Captain Cold(from Earth-1), and The Mirror Master(from Earth-1)—have figured out how to travel between worlds. They team up with Earth-2’s Fiddler to wreak havoc.
• To stop them, the two Flashes seek out the retired members of the Justice Society of America. While most of the JSA appears in cameos or as part of the background narrative, it was the spark that brought the team back into DC's main continuity.
