Wallace Rudolph West, also known as Kid Flash, Wally West, Winghead and Speedbump, is a character from the Teen Titans series.
== Charactah Account ==
A charming speedster who develops a thing for Jinx and manages to convince her to change sides.
One of Kid Flash's most notable personality traits is his wit. Because his super-speed literally allows him all the time he needs, Kid Flash is very laid-back. He likes to wise-crack and make snappy quips, and seems to be quick with making decisions as well. He seems to prefer humiliating his criminals rather than arresting them, as seem in his his actions against the Hive Five. Perhaps due to his cocky nature, he sometimes finds himself going far too fast for himself, which can lead to mistakes. Despite this, Kid Flash is very charming and has a kind heart that can see people for who they really are, which he displayed in his interactions with Jinx.
He is shown to be very insistent with pursuing somebody he fancies as shown in Lightspeed. After he was taken by Jinx, he tried multiple times to get close to her, but she always struck him down. Despite this, he kept trying and eventually succeeded.

== Trivia ==
* Kid Flash is voiced by Michael Rosenbaum, who was the voice of Wally West/Flash in the animated Justice League series. This lends more to the fact that this animated version of the character is none other than Wally West, the first and original Kid Flash.
** Rosenbaum had also provided the voice for Barry Allen/Flash in the 2012 animated film Justice League: Doom.
** Rosenbaum also portrayed Lex Luthor in the live-action TV series Smallville.
* In the DC comics, Wally West gained his powers when he was exposed to a lightning blast under the same circumstances as his uncle. He eventually becomes the Flash after his uncle's untimely demise during Crisis on Infinite Earths.
* According to Beast Boy at the beginning of "Calling All Titans!", Kid Flash already had a communicator even though it was not shown how he got it.
* Even though he had a communicator, Kid Flash was not ambushed by the Brotherhood of Evil.
* In the original DC Comics, Kid Flash, along with Robin, Speedy, Wonder Girl, and Aqualad, was among the founding members of the Teen Titans, who were sometimes referred to as the Fab Five.
* Out of the four boys with obvious crushes on Jinx (the others being Cyborg, See-more and Kid Kold), he is the only one who succeeds in stealing her heart.
* Kid Flash is one of the few characters in the series to fully resemble his comic counterpart. However, the current Wally in the comics has green eyes, but the design of Kid Flash with blue eyes remains consistent with his original Pre-Crisis appearances.
* Two of the villains that Kid Flash faces in the show's comic counterpart are siblings called Kid Kold and Ice Kate, real names Leo and Katie. Their designs, names, and powers lend to the extremely likely probability that they are based on the Flash villains Captain Cold (real name Leonard Snart) and his sister Golden Glider (real name Lisa Snart). Captain Cold is the leader of a group of Flash enemies known as the Rogues, and Golden Glider vowed to get revenge on the Flash after she blamed him for the death of the man she loved.
