Fictional character biography
When Wally is eight years old, he dreams of being like the Flash, though his parents do not approve. One day, he is visited by a friendly stranger, whose kindness gives young Wally the hope he needs for the future. The stranger then mysteriously disappears. It is later revealed in The Flash vol. 2 #0 that the stranger is an older version of Wally himself, who makes a detour in his travels through time to meet his younger self.
Kid Flash
Wally West is the nephew of Iris West (and consequently, Barry Allen's nephew by marriage), and is introduced in The Flash vol. George Pérez (born June 9, 1954) is an illustrator and writer of Comic books born of Latin-American (Puerto-Rican descent Iris West Allen is a Fictional character who appears in various DC Comics publications Bartholomew "Barry" Allen is a Fictional character, a Superhero in the DC Comics universe and the second Flash 1, #110 (1959). When West is about ten years old, he visits the Central City police laboratory where Barry Allen (Iris' boyfriend at the time) worked, and the freak accident that gave Allen his powers repeats itself, bathing West in electrically-charged chemicals. Police are agents or agencies usually of the executive, empowered to enforce the law and to effect public and social order through the legitimatized use of force Now possessing the same powers as The Flash, West dons a smaller sized copy of Barry Allen's Flash outfit and becomes the young crimefighter Kid Flash.
He soon adopts a slightly different, yellow-and-red outfit with his hair exposed, and becomes a founding member of the Teen Titans, along with fellow sidekicks Robin and Aqualad.

Flash
As a young adult, West finds his powers to be failing and even damaging his body. He retires from crimefighting until a cure can be found. However, he is called to action again by the Crisis on Infinite Earths, in which his uncle Barry has vanished. Crisis on Infinite Earths is a twelve-issue American comic book Limited series (identified as a "12-part maxi-series" and crossover As a side effect of the energies he was exposed to during that adventure, West's powers stabilize. However, he can no longer run at the extraordinary speeds of his uncle. West is limited to the speed of sound and has to eat vast quantities of food to maintain his metabolism. Sound is a vibration that travels through an elastic medium as a Wave.
Despite these handicaps, West resumes his career, though he retires his Kid Flash costume and adopts the costume and name of the Flash to honor his uncle. He does, however, make his identity public knowledge to keep from replacing Barry Allen in the minds of the public. This makes him the first sidekick to actually take on the name of his mentor. A short time later, West wins a lottery, buys a large mansion, and becomes something of a playboy. A lottery is a form of Gambling which involves the drawing of lots for a prize He joins Justice League Europe early in his career as Flash and later joins the reformed Justice League. Justice League Europe was a DC Comics book run that was a Spin-off of the comic book Justice League America (which was then named The Justice League sometimes called the Justice League of America or JLA for short is a Fictional DC Comics superhero team. West's finances and luck continue to ebb and wane until Flash vol. 2, #62, when his playboy ways end and his fortunes stabilize.
The Speed Force
Over the next few years, West learns several things about his powers. First, it is suggested that Allen had not actually been human after gaining his own powers, but was in fact a powerful energy force. As Allen's career ends after his death, West has access to only a fraction of this energy. Later, West discovers that Allen was in fact a conduit to the Speed Force, an extradimensional energy force that West and other speedsters could also tap. The Speed Force is a fictional concept presented in various Comic books published by DC Comics. West had been holding back from fully embracing the Speed Force for fear of replacing his uncle in the minds of the public.
In honor of his mentor, Wally took the name and costume of the Flash. He went through a difficult period of emotional instability during which he used his powers irresponsibly, developed a reputation as a womanizer, and finally sought psychiatric help, As he matured—much of which he credits to his now-longstanding relationship with reporter Linda Park—and learned to fulfill his responsibility, Wally slowly developed confidence and regained his earlier speed.
Finally breaking through his mental block of replacing Barry Allen, he achieved full speed, only to find himself changing into energy. In the midst of a battle for Keystone, he sacrificed his life and his humanity to save Linda—and became the only person known to return from the other side of the speed barrier. Wally now has a direct connection to the speed force, and subconscious knowledge of new ways to use it, including the ability to lend speed to other objects and people (Terminal Velocity and aftermath: Flash #95–101, 1994–1995).
Wally now wears a costume made of concentrated speed force energy. Unable to wait for both broken legs to heal and inspired by a then-recent Justice League case, he gained enough control over the speed force to create a costume which would support him and enable him to run despite his injury (Flash #131, 1997).
Realization of his full potential
A difficult encounter with a particularly vicious foe, the first Reverse-Flash (Eobard Thawne, originating from a time before he even had his first encounter with Barry), who was bent on destroying Allen's legacy finally motivated West to use his abilities to their fullest potential. Reverse-Flash is a title that has been taken by three Supervillains in DC Comics. Upon arriving, Thawne believed he was Barry Allen due to the shock of time travel and the trauma of learning of his future death at Barry's hands, causing him to 'hide' behind the identity of Barry Allen, whose life he had learned all about thanks to an as-yet-unpublished autobiography of Barry he possessed in his time. An autobiography, from the Greek αὐτός autos "self" βίος bios "life" and γράφειν graphein "to write" Although he initially worked as a hero, Thawne's true personality began to emerge, and "Barry" went rogue, attacking Central City for "forgetting him," even breaking Jay Garrick's leg in a battle. Jay Garrick is a Fictional character, a Comic book Superhero in the DC Comics universe and the first to use the name However, as Thawne (now his true self, uniform and all) bragged to Wally about how, when he was finished with Central City, no one would even remember Barry, a subconscious mental block Wally had imposed on his speed finally snapped; Wally had always limited his speed because, when he could move as fast as Barry, he really would have replaced him, but he feared Thawne replacing Barry more than he feared himself doing so. After this encounter, he was Barry Allen's equal in speed, though he still had not been able to recover Barry's vibrational abilities.
After discovering and being absorbed by the Speed Force, returning to Earth found Wally to be even faster than Barry Allen. This also saw the return of his vibration powers, though they had a destructive side effect of destroying any walls or objects he passed through. Battling the student/priest of speed, Savitar, West gained some additional powers from the Speed Force, and even more powers after meeting an alternate version of himself, Walter West (the Dark Flash), via Hypertime travel, including the ability to 'steal' speed from other speedsters to temporarily increase his own. Savitar is a Fictional Supervillain published by DC Comics. He first appeared in Flash (v The Speed Force is a fictional concept presented in various Comic books published by DC Comics. Hypertime is a Fictional concept presented in the 1999 DC comic book series The Kingdom, both a catch-all explanation for any continuity
Until West's accumulation of new powers circa issues #90 and up, some of his uncle's abilities continued to elude West; most notably, the power to precisely travel through time, especially with the ease which Allen accomplished these feats. More recently, West has on several occasions used his speed to break time and even dimensional barriers, though unlike Barry Allen, he did not require the use of the Cosmic Treadmill to do so. By this time, Wally had also learned to temper the destructive nature of his vibration powers. While Walter seemed able to traverse dimensions easily (in The Flash vol. 2, #159, Walter West landed on our Earth and recognized himself on the cover of what was then the current month's issue of the comic), Wally has not, to date, been able to do so easily. The abilities that West has not been able to duplicate seem to coincide with Barry Allen's unique and complete control of his molecular structure.
Like his uncle, West had a friendship with Hal Jordan, a. Harold "Hal" Jordan is a Fictional character, a DC Comics Superhero. k. a. Green Lantern. When Jordan became Parallax, he was replaced by Kyle Rayner. Parallax is a Fictional character, a Comic book Supervillain in the DC Comics universe. Kyle Rayner is a Fictional character, a Superhero from the DC Comics universe, known for most of his publication history as Green Lantern Having grown up with Jordan as Green Lantern and having always seen him as 'Uncle Hal', West did not warmly embrace Rayner when Rayner first took over the mantle and was very critical and sometimes harsh with Rayner during his early days. In time, West eventually accepted Rayner as Green Lantern and they became best friends and supporters. When John Stewart reprised his role as a Green Lantern once again and took Kyle's place within the Justice League, Wally accepted him as well. John Stewart may refer to Robert III of Scotland (c1340&ndash1406 who before he became king was known as John Stewart Earl of Carrick John Stewart He also has a solid friendship with another one of his uncle's best friends, Oliver Queen, the Green Arrow, and his son, Connor Hawke, the second Green Arrow.

Marriage
West married journalist and longtime girlfriend, Linda Park. A journalist (also called a newspaperman) is a person who practices Journalism, the gathering and dissemination of information about current events trends Linda Park (also Linda Park-West) is a Fictional character in the DC Universe. After an attack on Linda by a new Reverse-Flash, Zoom, caused a miscarriage of their unborn twins by triggering a sonic boom that caused Linda severe internal damage, West regretted the public knowledge of his identity. Zoom (real name Hunter Zolomon) is a fictional Comic book Supervillain from the DC Comics universe. With the aid of the The Spectre (Hal Jordan), the knowledge of the Flash's secret identity was wiped from the minds of everybody in the world, but the Spectre's attempts to "reassert" its mission of vengeance over Jordan's attempts to make it a mission of redemption resulted in even Wally forgetting his own superheroic identity. The Spectre is a fictional cosmic entity and Superhero who has appeared in numerous Comic books published by DC Comics. He began working as a mechanic for the Keystone City Police, a job that reminded him of Barry Allen (whom he only remembered as a police scientist). 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
Eventually, Batman deduced the truth and restored West's memory by revealing his own identity. Batman (originally referred to as the Bat-Man and still referred to at times as the Batman) is a fictional Comic book Superhero co-created The truth has also been revealed to Wally's friends in the heroic community, and to Linda Park, who initially found it difficult to deal with (as in her false memories, their twins had been innocent victims caught in the crossfire between the Flash and Zoom) and took some time away from her husband before reuniting. Disillusioned with typical heroics for a time after this, the Flash took up joint membership with the Justice League and the newly-formed Justice League Elite, working under Sister Superior- sister of the deceased Manchester Black- and assorted anti-heroes as a superhuman 'black ops' team, working to track down and eliminate metahuman threats to the populace before they went public, although the team eventually fell apart after Black's spirit was discovered to be influencing his sister and trying to drive her to destroy London. Justice League Elite was a twelve-issue Comic book Limited series published monthly by DC Comics in 2004 and 2005. Sister Superior ( Vera Lynn Black) is a Fictional character from DC Comics. Manchester Black is a Fictional character, and an Anti-hero in the DC Comics universe. A Black Operation or Black Op is a Covert operation typically involving activities that are highly Secret due to questionable Ethics and London ( ˈlʌndən is the capital and largest urban area in the United Kingdom.
Due to another fight with Zoom, which featured the temporary return of Barry Allen and Professor Zoom, the events leading to Linda's miscarriage were altered, as Zoom's future self took the brunt of the sonic boom that would have hit Linda when he attempted to ram her at superspeed, and the miscarriage was erased. Professor Zoom is a comic book super-villain in the DC Universe. Linda delivered twins shortly after Wally returned to the present, leading Wally to reconsider his position as the Flash, aiming to give more time to his newfound family than to the superhero business.
Infinite Crisis
In Infinite Crisis #4, Wally, Jay, and Bart joined together to stop the rampage of Superboy-Prime in Smallville, using their top speeds to hinder him and trap him in another dimension. Infinite Crisis is a seven-issue Limited series of Comic books written by Geoff Johns and illustrated by Phil Jimenez, George Jay Garrick is a Fictional character, a Comic book Superhero in the DC Comics universe and the first to use the name Bartholomew "Bart" Allen is a superhero in the. Allen first appeared as the superhero Impulse. During the battle, Wally seemed to turn into energy and started to disappear. He was able to appear to Linda (his "lightning rod"). Refusing to be separated from her husband, Linda grabbed onto Wally in the middle of her good-bye with their infant children in her arms and all four vanished.
Apparently, Linda, Wally and their twins were still alive in an alternate reality, living in its version of Keystone City, from which only Bart Allen managed to return. Bart told the other heroes that Wally was "just taking some time away" with Linda to watch his twins grow without dealing with the pressures of being a hero.
Return
During the events of the JLA/JSA "The Lightning Saga" crossover, several members of the Legion of Super-Heroes travel to the present to resurrect an ally via lightning rods. The Justice League sometimes called the Justice League of America or JLA for short is a Fictional DC Comics superhero team. The Justice Society of America, or JSA, is a DC Comics Superhero group the first team of superheroes in Comic book history The Lightning Saga is a Comic book crossover Story arc that took place in DC Comics ' two flagship team books Justice League This is about the DC Comics superhero team For the animated television series based on this see Legion of Super Heroes (TV series. The locations the Legion travels to include the spots where Barry Allen and Wally West gained their powers as well as the last spots on Earth where Barry appeared before his death. Both Batman and Hal Jordan realize this fact and believe Barry's return is imminent. Batman (originally referred to as the Bat-Man and still referred to at times as the Batman) is a fictional Comic book Superhero co-created Harold "Hal" Jordan is a Fictional character, a DC Comics Superhero. However, they instead retrieve Wally, Linda and his twin children, Iris and Jai, who appear to have aged several years. Wally is immediately offered membership in the Justice League, which he accepts. Brainiac 5 implies West's return was a freak accident and that they still retrieved the correct person they wanted and he is encased in one of the lightning rods used in the resurrection ceremony. Brainiac 5 ( Querl Dox) is a Fictional character who exists in the future of the DC Universe.
In All Flash #1, after learning of Bart's death, Wally seeks those responsible: Inertia and the Rogues. ]]|caption=Inertia in art from Flash The Fastest Man Alive #5 by Ron Adrian. This article is about a specific group of comic-book villains He steals Inertia's speed, immobilizes him in stasis in the Flash Museum, and leaves him conscious to stare at Bart's statues as Impulse and Kid Flash for eternity.
Flash has returned as a regular monthly comic book. The book has much to do with Wally being a father of twins with powers, similar to his own. The first few issues dealt with Wally teaching his kids how to control their powers along with a minor alien invasion in which the Flash takes care of with the help of the Justice League.

Powers
Wally's primary super power is his speed. Over the years, this has fluctuated from his career as Kid Flash, where he could approach the speed of light, to the beginning of his career as The Flash, in which he was limited to a top speed of approximately 700 mph (1,100 km/h), leading to near retirement and returning to college before the death of Barry Allen. (For the South African airport with IATA code "KMH" see Johan Pienaar Airport. In recent years, with the knowledge and mastery of the Speed Force at his disposal, Wally has managed to surpass the speed of light, though it is tough to do and can lead to being trapped in the Speed Force.
As Kid Flash, Wally had the ability to control the vibration of his molecules to the degree that he could vibrate through solid objects and traverse other dimensions and times. He lost this ability when he became The Flash, and regained this power in later years with the added twist that vibrating through objects could cause them to explode; apparently, this later version of the power passed kinetic energy into the molecular structure of the object he vibrated through, and the object would explode from the charge.
Other applications of super-speed:
- Does not leave a scent trail that a bloodhound can track, even at the "low" speed of 700 mph
- Being able to run across the surface of large bodies of water--moving so fast that he does not break the surface tension of the water as he runs. For the work of fiction see Surface Tension (short story. Surface tension is a property of the surface of a Liquid that causes it to
- Overcoming gravity by running up and down vertical surfaces.
- Creating wind vortices by running in circles or rotating his arms and legs.
- "Lending" velocity to objects or people already in motion
- "Stealing" the speed of others and utilizing it himself.
- Vibrating his molecules so fast he can travel through objects such as walls.
- Use of his incredibly fast reflexes in order to withstand powerful blows.
- Gaining infinite force or weight as he approaches light speed, resulting in extremely heavy blows.
- Creating after-images of himself.
- Vibrate so that light does not reflect off him sufficiently, rendering him invisible[1]
- "Accelerated Healing" the ability to speed up his natural healing process.
- Talking at a super-speed whereas only other super-speedsters (like Superman, Jesse Quick, Max Mercury, etc. Jesse Chambers is a Fictional character in the DC Comics universe. Max Mercury is a Fictional character, a DC Comics superhero based on Quality Comics ' Quicksilver. ) can receive, interpret and return communication at the same velocity.
As with most super-speedsters, Wally possesses an "aura" which protects him (and whatever he carries) from heat and air friction when he travels at high velocities. He also has a slight amount of invulnerability with this "aura".
Costumes
As Kid Flash, Wally wore a costume that was primarily yellow with red leggings, gloves and mask. The costume, like that of the Flash, would compress into a ring's compartment for quick changes.
At the beginning of his career as The Flash, initially wearing the costume of his late mentor Barry Allen, Wally would soon modify the belt of his costume to resemble two connecting lightning bolts, remove the wings from the top of his boots, alter the material of his costume, and add opaque lenses to the eyes of his cowl. This modified design utilized elements of the costume designed by artist Dave Stevens for the live action television series, The Flash. Dave Stevens ( July 29, 1955 – March 11, 2008) was an American Illustrator and Comics artist Later, after an accident left him with two broken legs, Wally discovered he had gained enough control over the Speed Force to create a costume of solidified energy which would support him and enable him to run despite his injury. In Science fiction and Fantasy literature a force field or protective shield is a barrier made up of energy to protect a person area or object from With enough control, his Speed Force Energy costume could be shaped identically to his costume. This energy-based costume could appear at Wally's will, and could be mentally modified to show his eyes (which he resumed as the normal appearance) and mouth, or to shield both from a hostile environment.
As of All Flash #1, Wally's costume has been modified slightly with the addition of wings to his boots similar to those featured on Barry Allen's costume.
Villains
