"I thought that cabana boy said 'Rick's'..." —The Flash
on Casablanca's most famous eatery |

SUMMARY: Boredom prompts Wally West to use his Justice
League teleporter to take a day trip to Europe in search of food, fun,
and maybe even a bit of romance. Instead of landing in Paris, however,
the Flash finds himself in Lisbon and, on the advice of the locals, soon
heads south to Casablanca. There, at the infamous Dick's All-American
Diner, the scarlet speedster is introduced to elements even more
dangerous than the restaurant's famously bad meatloaf. Here,
international intrigue is the norm; in addition to representatives of
numerous competing intelligence agencies, two notorious assassins are in
attendance — Merlyn, a Libyan-employed archer hired to eliminate an
eccentric Russian scientist, and Syonide, an American contracted by
stateside criminals to take out the superheroine known as Phantom Lady.
The arrival of the two unsuspecting targets inevitably causes Dick's to
erupt in violence and soon Phantom Lady finds herself thankful that the
fastest man alive happened to be passing through.
