Synopsis:
The Flash travels into the far future where he is able to photograph the sun going nova. While in the future, he touches a strange metallic substance. Upon his return to the present, his hands suddenly cause objects to age and decay. Fearing his own deadly touch, Flash seeks the help of two research scientists. The scientists recommend Flash eat something that has been aged by his hands. He then touches some oats and eats them. The aged oats act as an anti-toxin, which cures the Flash of his condition.
