WALLY WEST

Wally West is a fictional superhero that appears in American comic books published by DC Comics. He is the third Flash and the first Kid Flash. His power consists mainly of superhuman speed. He made his first appearance as the Kid Flash in the Flash #110 in 1959. Barry Allen dies in the crossover Crisis on Infinite Earths #8 (Nov. 1985), and Wally took up the mantle of the Flash in Crisis on Infinite Earths #12 (Mar. 1986), holding that role until 2009 in DC's main lineup. His physical appearance is generally a redhead with green eyes, and is generally portrayed with a lighthearted, comic, and caring personality. Wally has an important role as the Flash in DC Rebirth (2016). In his debut as the Flash, Wally wears a distinct red and gold costume, traditionally storing the costume compressed inside a ring and later creating a costume directly out. He is the fastest character to take on the mantle of the Flash. In the DC Rebirth, The Flash (Wally West) wears a red and silver costume and generates blue or white lightning to show that the Speed Force is inside him more than ever before.
