Fictional character biography
Impulse
Suffering from a hyper-accelerated metabolism, Bart Allen was aging at a faster rate than that of any human being thus causing him to appear the age of twelve when he was chronologically only two years old. To prevent him from developing mental health problems he was raised in a virtual reality machine which created a simulated world that kept pace with his own scale of time. Virtual reality ( VR) is a technology which allows a user to interact with a Computer-simulated environment be it a real or imagined one When it became clear that this method was not helping, his grandmother, Iris Allen, took him back in time to the present where The Flash, Wally West, tracked him down in a race across the world. Wally West is a Fictional character, a Comic book Superhero in the DC Comics Universe, the first Kid Flash and the By forcing Bart into an extreme burst of speed, Wally managed to shock his hyper-metabolism back to normal. [1] Because he had spent the majority of his childhood in a simulated world, Bart had no concept of danger and was prone to leaping before he looked. The youth proved to be more trouble than Wally could handle, and he was palmed off onto retired superhero speedster Max Mercury, who moved Bart to Manchester, Alabama. Max Mercury is a Fictional character, a DC Comics superhero based on Quality Comics ' Quicksilver. Alabama (formally the State of Alabama;) is a State located in the southern region of the United States of America. As retconned in Impulse #50, Batman named him "Impulse" as a warning, not as a compliment.
Bart joined the Titans[2] early in his career before going on to become one of the founding members (along with Robin and Superboy) of the superhero team Young Justice. For the animated TV series based on this comic see Teen Titans (TV series. This article is about the comic book series and team For the rapper called Young Justice see List of Wu-Tang Clan affiliates. For a time, Impulse became the owner of a spaceship granted to him by a rich sultan in appreciation for having helped save his castle. The team used this ship to reunite Doiby Dickles with his queen and restore the rightful rule of Myrg. Charles "Doiby" Dickles was the sidekick for Alan Scott, Earth's first Green Lantern. Impulse stayed with Young Justice for an extensive period of time during which he developed the ability to make speed-force energy duplicates. This allowed him to be in multiple places at once. The newly acquired power proved useful until one of the duplicates was killed during the "Our Worlds at War" storyline when half the team was lost on Apokolips. Our Worlds at War was a Comic book crossover, published by DC Comics during the summer of 2001 Bart quit Young Justice temporarily as the death of his duplicate led him to come to terms with his own mortality.
Following Max Mercury's disappearance, Bart was taken in by Jay Garrick, the first Flash, and his wife Joan. Jay Garrick is a Fictional character, a Comic book Superhero in the DC Comics universe and the first to use the name After the breakup of Young Justice, Bart joined some of his former teammates in a new line-up of the Teen Titans.

Deathstroke the Terminator ( Slade Wilson) also called simply Slade (to the people who know him Deathstroke (and originally simply the Terminator Jericho ( Joseph William Wilson) is a Fictional character, a Superhero who was a member of the Teen Titans in the acclaimed 1980s period While recovering, Bart read every single book in the San Francisco Public Library and reinvented himself as the new Kid Flash. The San Francisco Public Library is a public Library system serving the city of San Francisco. Once healed, the artificial knee did not affect his ability to run at speeds approximating that of light. [4]
In the "Titans Tomorrow" storyline, Bart assumed the mantle of the Flash after the current Flash died in a "Crisis". Titans Tomorrow is a storyline of a possible alternate future in the DC Comics Universe from Teen Titans (vol In this alternate future he was able to steal the speed of others, a power he used on his past self. This reality shows a grown Bart posing as a member of the so-called Titans of Tomorrow. However he is really a spy working on the behalf of Titans East, a resistance group led by the future Cyborg.

Infinite Crisis is a seven-issue Limited series of Comic books written by Geoff Johns and illustrated by Phil Jimenez, George Superboy, also known by his Kryptonian name Kon-El and his human alias Conner Kent, is a fictional Superhero in the He accomplishes this by running him at top speed into the Speed Force with the help of veteran speedsters Wally West and Jay Garrick. The Speed Force is a fictional concept presented in various Comic books published by DC Comics. The feat took its toll on Garrick, who reached his limit before entering the Speed Force, and West, who turned into energy and vanished, leaving Bart alone in the fight against an armored Superboy-Prime. Luckily for the young speedster, Barry Allen, Johnny Quick and Max Mercury, all of whom had been previously absorbed into the Speed Force, appeared and aided him. Johnny Quick is the name of two DC Comics characters each with the power of Superhuman speed [6]
Bart spent four years in an alternate reality's Keystone City, where along with Wally, an alternate version of Jay Garrick and the ghosts of Max and Barry, Superboy-Prime managed to escape from his prison. The speedsters rallied together to return to their dimension. In an attempt to get there before Superboy-Prime, Bart absorbed the Speed Force using Wally's ring and Barry's costume to help him survive his journey. [7]
Wearing his grandfather's costume, an aged Bart reappeared in Tokyo just in time to fight alongside Superman and many other heroes in the Battle of Metropolis unleashing his anger against Superboy-Prime for killing Conner Kent and so forcing the villain to retreat from battle. Infinite Crisis is a seven-issue Limited series of Comic books written by Geoff Johns and illustrated by Phil Jimenez, George When the crisis was over, Bart explained to Jay where he had been and how the Speed Force was destroyed. Having used up the residual speed locked in his body in the fight for Metropolis, Bart gives Barry's costume to Jay proclaiming him "the fastest man alive. "[8]
The Flash: The Fastest Man Alive (2006-2007)
In Teen Titans (vol. 3) #34, a One Year Later issue, Robin refers to Bart as "kind of retired". One Year Later was a 2006 event running through the DC Universe. Timothy "Tim" Drake Wayne is a Fictional character, a Comic book Superhero from the DC Comics universe.

The Griffin (real name Griffin Grey) is a Fictional character that has appeared in Comic books published by DC Comics. A strikebreaker (also called scab or knobstick) is a person who works despite an ongoing strike. Keystone City is a Fictional city in the DC Comics universe Specifically it is the home of both the original Flash Jay Garrick, and the third Flash [9] Bart has nightmares about the Speed Force, such as when he and Jay Garrick are separated during Infinite Crisis, and glimpses of Barry's death in Crisis on Infinite Earths. The Speed Force is a fictional concept presented in various Comic books published by DC Comics. Jay Garrick is a Fictional character, a Comic book Superhero in the DC Comics universe and the first to use the name Crisis on Infinite Earths is a twelve-issue American comic book Limited series (identified as a "12-part maxi-series" and crossover Lying to everyone that the Speed Force is gone, Bart is still able to tap into it, though the effects are far more difficult to control and potentially lethal. Despite the risk, Bart attempts, unsuccessfully, to use his powers to save Griffin when a bomb is set off at the plant, and is seen doing so by Jay. [9]
Bart tells the Garricks about the existence of the Speed Force and his desire to divest himself of his powers, even asking S. T. A. R. Labs to remove his link with the Speed Force. S. T. A. R. recreates the material used to make Barry's Flash uniform but in the modern design worn by Wally. Bart is initially unwilling to wear this, but eventually uses the uniform. When S. T. A. R. 's Keystone location is blown up, Bart dons the uniform to rescue Valerie Perez. Valerie Perez is a Fictional character, a DC Comics supporting character and love interest for Bart Allen when Bart was the Flash. [10] Because of Bart's feelings for the young scientist, he allows Valerie to examine him.

Labs, and she is discovered to be the daughter of Manfred Mota. Manfred Mota is a fictional DC Comics villain and adversary of The Flash. [11] In the end, Bart and Valerie's relationship proves short lived, as Valerie struggles to come to terms with Bart's life as a superhero. [12]
Meanwhile, Griffin, who gains superspeed after the bomb explodes at the plant, becomes more unbalanced and ages unnaturally. [11] Griffin nearly kills Bart and kidnaps Jay Garrick, but Bart rescues him. Griffin destroys Keystone's bridge in order to stage a rescue himself, but Bart, who makes a public return as the Flash, foils Griffin's plans. When he is hit by an energy blast during the fight, Bart finally remembers his time on the alternate Earth during the Crisis and why the Speed Force is inside him, but he is unable to save his friend, who dies learning that the "new" Flash and Bart are the very same person. [7]
However, when Inertia resurfaces and kidnaps Valerie on behalf of Mota and then leaves behind a fake Dear John Letter, the increasing pressure leads Bart to leave Keystone City for Los Angeles. ]]|caption=Inertia in art from Flash The Fastest Man Alive #5 by Ron Adrian. The term "Dear John letter" refers to a letter written by a woman to her husband or Boyfriend to inform him their relationship is over usually because she has found Los Angeles (lɑˈsændʒələs los ˈaŋxeles in Spanish) is the largest City in the state of California and the American West Inertia later lets Valerie escape in order to take her hostage in Las Vegas, where Valerie is chained near a photon cannon set to target the Speed Force. Reunited with Valerie, Bart exerts more control over the Speed Force, outracing the photon ray and freeing his girlfriend. They reunite, and Bart shares his future plans with Jay: with Valerie's blessing he will stay in Los Angeles and follow in Barry's footsteps by studying forensics at the local police academy. [13]
Soon after donning the Flash identity, Bart is considered for Justice League membership and gets particular support from Batman, who feels he is more than ready for the position.

The New Gods are a Fictional race published by DC Comics, as well as the title for four series of comics about those characters
Death
Bart reveals himself as the Flash in order to fight the Rogues. During the battle, it is revealed that the machine built by Inertia actually drains the Speed Force from an individual instead of freezing time. Using it on the Flash, Bart's powers are stripped away from him, leaving him surrounded by the Rogues and leading to the appearance of the Black Flash. The Black Flash is a Fictional Comic book character from DC Comics. Bart fights the Rogues before chasing after Inertia. After catching and beating Inertia, Bart again fights the Rogues.

Titans Tower is a fictional building in the DC Comics universe Superboy, also known by his Kryptonian name Kon-El and his human alias Conner Kent, is a fictional Superhero in the [15]
As Wally West's return to New Earth coincided exactly with Bart's death, later Inertia alleged that Bart's loss of powers was a direct consequence of Wally absorbing the newly released Speed Force. Wally West is a Fictional character, a Comic book Superhero in the DC Comics Universe, the first Kid Flash and the However, no further blame was put on Wally, who avenged his protégé by freezing Inertia's body in time but leaving his mind active. Inertia is forever on display in a new area of the Flash Museum, dedicated to Bart's life, and will now spend forever looking at statues honouring Bart's heroic legacy as Impulse and Kid Flash. [16]
Marc Guggenheim, writer of the story arc in which Bart dies, has stated that this was an editorial decision, and that he was instructed that his five-issue run would have to end with Bart's death and the involvement of the Rogues. [17]
Funeral
Keystone City held a funeral for Bart, in which Jay Garrick, Cyborg, Wonder Girl and Robin give eulogies. At the end of his own speech, Robin plays a video Bart made soon after he had taken on the mantle of Kid Flash. In it Bart relays to his friends that no matter what happens to him, he will always be proud of having been a part of the Flash Legacy and how happy he was being a member of the Teen Titans. [18] Shortly after the Keystone Funeral, a more private funeral is held for Bart at Titans Tower, where they have erected a golden statue of Bart as Kid Flash beside the statue of Superboy.
During the Sinestro Corps invasion of Earth, Superman-Prime's first act was to visit and defile Bart's grave calling him a stupid dead child. The Sinestro Corps is a group of Fictional characters a villainous analogue to the Green Lantern Corps in the DC Universe.
Powers and abilities
Bart's primary power is speed, along with abilities that are common to comics speedsters, such as creating whirlwinds, running on water and vibrating through matter. That last ability will result in 'molecular taffy' if Bart does not concentrate; he also possesses an aura that prevents air friction while running. Before being shot in the knee, he was faster than the current Flash had been at his age. Bart does possess some abilities that other speedsters do not have. He has the ability to produce "scouts," Speed Force avatars that he can send through the timestream, but has used it infrequently since the death of one avatar put him in a coma during the "Our Worlds at War" storyline that crossed over among the Impulse, Superboy, and Young Justice titles. Our Worlds at War was a Comic book crossover, published by DC Comics during the summer of 2001 After being forced to use it during the "World Without Young Justice" crossover event, he was able and willing to use them with ease, up until he became Kid Flash.
Bart is resistant to the alterations in the time stream. His parents met only in post-Zero Hour continuity, but he arrived before the event. Zero Hour Crisis in Time is a five-issue Comic book Limited series and crossover storyline published by DC Comics in 1994 Bart has the ability to recall everything he had ever read, heard or watched (which includes speed-reading every book in the San Francisco Public Library), allowing him to spout encyclopedic information concerning the situation at hand as well as quotations from Mark Twain, of whose work he is fond. The San Francisco Public Library is a public Library system serving the city of San Francisco. Samuel Langhorne Clemens (November 30 1835 – April 21 1910 better known by the Pen name Mark Twain, was an American Humorist, satirist [3]
After Infinite Crisis, Bart's connection to the Speed Force is more difficult to control because he now contains the Speed Force and, in essence, is the Speed Force. Infinite Crisis is a seven-issue Limited series of Comic books written by Geoff Johns and illustrated by Phil Jimenez, George When he taps into the Speed Force, Bart appears to have electricity crackling around him, and the Speed Force inside him has become so lethal, that he initially wore the Flash suit while running in order to prevent it from killing him. [11] After remembering his experiences on an alternate Earth during a fight with Griffin, he began to gain a measure of control over the Speed Force before it was released from his body just prior to his death.
Flash legacy
Since his first appearance in The Flash vol. 2 #91, Bart had been trained by several speed-endowed heroes such as Jay Garrick, Johnny Quick and Max Mercury. Jay Garrick is a Fictional character, a Comic book Superhero in the DC Comics universe and the first to use the name Johnny Quick is the name of two DC Comics characters each with the power of Superhuman speed Max Mercury is a Fictional character, a DC Comics superhero based on Quality Comics ' Quicksilver. Prior to his reluctance to don the red and yellow, Bart showed a lot of enthusiasm towards his role as the future Flash. However, Wally West had a number of apprehensions about Bart, as shown by Wally's naming Jesse Quick as his successor and his refusal to deliver to Bart his invitation from Cyborg to join the latest incarnation of the Teen Titans. Wally West is a Fictional character, a Comic book Superhero in the DC Comics Universe, the first Kid Flash and the Jesse Chambers is a Fictional character in the DC Comics universe.
