Carmine Infantino will always be remembered as the personification of DC Comics' Silver Age. Infantino resurrected a dying comics industry in 1956, with his co-creation, the Flash and remains the best remembered Flash artist of all-time. Infantino proved an all-time great sci-fi artist with his elegant, Adam Strange, the only sci-fi comic to rival the sales of Star Wars, which Infantino also illustrated. In 1964, he with editor Julius Schwartz, saved Batman comics from cancellation with the "New Look," redesigned the Batmobile and created Batgirl. All of which inspired the Batman TV-show. In 1971, Infantino became Publisher and later, President of DC Comics. His corporate moves included development of the Superman films I and II starring Christopher Reeve.
