Manic Monday--Jay Garrick's Woodstock!

It's 1970 on Earth-2, and Jay Garrick is still fighting crime...but he's not as fast as he used to be...


He can still take down the Turtle and his goons...but he has to huff and puff a little bit...


Yes, Jay, you're getting old...

Geez, don't let Geoff Johns see you with gray temples, Jay, or he'll decide that you're possessed by the sentient color aquamarine or something...

But there is one surefire cure from feeling old:

See, on Earth-2 is was called Stockwood! What a wacky alternate reality!

So they travel to Woodstock Stockwood...but traffic is a bear:

So Jay cheats a little bit...

Some of the youngsters aren't too thrilled about old folks harshing their mellow:

But most of the crowd really digs the older generation trying to groove with them!

And when the Fiddler crashes the festival to perform and steal everyone's money (because of course he does), Jay seals his relationship with the younger generation!

Groovy indeed, Earth-2 hippies. Groovy indeed!
