Carmine Infantino (d. 2013) was an American comic-book artist and editor. He began his career during the Golden Age at Timely Comics, Marvel’s predecessor, as well as at Fawcett, Hillman, and other publishers. At DC Comics, he helped revive the Flash, contributing to the beginning of the industry’s Silver Age. He co-created the Elongated Man and several members of the Flash’s Rogues’ Gallery. His 1961 story “Flash of Two Worlds” introduced the Earth-One/Earth-Two concept to the DC Universe and earned him two Alley Awards. Infantino also served as DC’s art director and publisher before returning to drawing, including work on Marvel’s “Nova,” “Spider-Woman,” and “Star Wars.” He also drew “Superman vs. the Amazing Spider-Man,” the first crossover between DC and Marvel.
