| While visiting the lab of
his uncle-to-be, Barry Allen (Flash
II), Wally's life changed by a
seemingly random bolt of lightning duplicated the event that gave Allen
his speed, granting Wally identical powers. Thrilled to be Flash's junior partner, Kid Flash, Wally operated as a member of the Teen Titans and was a super hero all his young life. He grew up the only kid sidekick ever to fulfill the job's inherent promise; when Barry died, it was Wally's responsibility to adopt his costume and identity to become the Flash. |
