The first "Firestorm" series was short-lived, canceled abruptly in a company-wide cutback (the "DC Implosion") with #5 (the first part of a multiple-issue story) the last to be distributed, and #6 included in "Cancelled Comic Cavalcade". Writer Gerry Conway added Firestorm to the roster of "Justice League of America". This led to a series of eight-page stories in the back of "The Flash" (issues 289–304; with art by George Pérez, Jim Starlin and others), and a revival of a monthly Firestorm comic in 1982. "The Fury of Firestorm" (later called "Firestorm the Nuclear Man") lasted from 1982 until 1990.
