Wally West is the third **Flash** , the defender of Keystone City. Wally is also a founding member of the Teen Titans , and a member of the Justice League.

## Early Life

Wally West was born to Rudolph and Mary West in Blue Valley, Nebraska. As a youth, Wally would dream about being The Flash. It was his love as a youngster. His idolization of Flash went far as a youth, even being the sole member and leader of the Flash fan club in Blue Valley. During these years, Wally's parents thought Wally had unrealistic expectations and attempted to put him on the 'right path' of getting Wally to work at the plant his father worked.

### The Birth of Kid Flash

Due to these constant events, Wally looked at a mother and father figure at Iris West and Barry Allen,which was Iris's then fiancé. Wally spent his summer at Central City at the age of ten. Barry knew that young Wally was a huge fan of the Flash, and set up a meeting between the two at Barry's laboratory. Wally and Flash conversated, with Wally just bombarding Flash with questions. Meanwhile, a storm brewed outside and gave Wally the fateful results that was given to The Flash himself.

#### Fastest Kid Alive

Wally then trained under Barry's tutelage. He had grown into a respectable and brash young sidekick. He then became close friends with the Justice League's sidekicks, as they then formed the Teen Titans. They had many adventures together.

### Skirmish in Burnley

Running around Gotham City, The Flash searched for The Batman and Robin to send the duo a invite to the grand opening for the Flash Museum. Seeing Killer Moth thugs tangled in wire, Wally transported each thug to the Diamond District GCPD building. After transporting the thugs, Wally finally met up with the Dynamic Duo and sent them a invite. Wally was then notified of a breakout at Iron Heights penitentiary, and immediately bolted to the scene.

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

* **Speed Force Conduit**: After he was struck by a bolt of lightning and doused in chemicals, Wally gained a connection to the Speed Force, a mysterious cosmic force that pushes time and space itself forward. As it does this, the Speed Force creates excess energy that builds up and needs to be released. Wally, along with all speedsters connected, acts as a release valve for the Speed Force. When Wally uses his powers, he taps into that built up energy and expends it. Being a Speed Force Conduit radically accelerates all aspects of Wally's being. Due to his time trapped in the Speed Force, Wally has since gained a much stronger connection to it, and can tap into it much more than before, due to being adrift within its cosmic energies for so long. Wally has a deep, spiritual understanding of the Speed Force. Wally's connection to the Speed Force grew even stronger after he was hyper-energized with a incredibly powerful surge of energy from the Speed Force itself. This granted Wally a raw connection to the Speed Force, meaning he cannot be cut off from its energy, due to his mainline-connection to it.
	+ **Superhuman Speed**: Wally is capable of moving at incredible superhuman speeds. He was able to cover 7,000 miles in 6.25 seconds, and even accelerate far beyond light-speed to the point of entering the Speed Force dimension. He is faster than both Superman, having beaten him in separate races. Wally is so fast that he had no problem moving at super-speed, even when time was frozen. He was even able to hit Ultraman hundreds of thousands of times before he could react. After pushing himself, Wally was able to accelerate faster than thought, time, and even the Speed Force itself. His unrivaled connection to the Speed Force makes Wally the fastest being in existence.
	+ **Superhuman Reflexes**: Wally possesses reflexes far greater than a normal human being. This allows him to easily react to danger and events, and perceive the world in slow motion.
	+ **Superhuman Stamina**: Wally's body can handle the stress of moving at superhuman speeds for extended periods of time without getting tired or weak.
	+ **Superhuman Agility**: Wally's agility, balance and bodily coordination are enhanced to superhuman levels. This allows him to easily make sharp turns and leap far distances while moving at superhuman speed.
	+ **Superhuman Strength**: The Flash can use his speed to boast his natural strength, allowing him to easily carry multiple people while running at super speed. Wally's strength combined with his speed allowed him to hit Reverse Flash with the force of one hundred thousand punches, with one punch.
	+ **Speed Force Aura**: Wally's body is surrounded by a "friction cushion", a field of kinetic absorbent energy that protects him and anyone who is running with or carried by him from the rigorous effects of using his speed, including friction, airborne particulate matter, kinetic impacts, G-Force and the like. It also allows speedsters like Wally to run at speeds faster than light, without causing damage to the environment.
		- **Superhuman Durability**: Thanks to his protective Speed Force aura, Wally is capable of resisting tremendous kinetic impact forces that could easily crush or kill a human, without suffering any serious external or internal injuries.
	+ **Accelerated Healing**: Like all conduits of the Speed Force, Wally is capable of regenerating from injuries much faster than any normal human.
		- **Toxic Immunity**: Wally's accelerated metabolism grants him significant resistance to drugs and other toxins. When exposed to a sleep gas, Wally was only slowed to normal human levels, rather than being instantly put to sleep by the gas.
	+ **Aerokinesis**: By rotating his arms at super speed or running in a circular motion, Wally can manipulate the airflow around him for various effects, such as creating strong vortexes of wind. By running fast enough, he can also pull the oxygen out of a fire in order to extinguish the flames. By running across water in circles, Wally was able to create a large vortex of water that he was able to pull behind him in his slipstream. Hawkman stated that when Wally ran around the world at immense speed, he created winds stronger than he had ever felt over all of his lives.
	+ **Dimensional Travel**: Wally is able to accelerate into the Speed Force by moving past light-speed. Entering the Speed Force is usually dangerous for speedsters since they need a "lightning rod" to ground them, or else they may become trapped.
	+ **Electrokinesis**: Wally can generate and manipulate the electrical energy that he draws from the Speed Force. This Speed Force lightning emanates off of him, especially when he moves at super-speed.
	+ **Speed Force Negation**: By interlocking energy currents, Wally was able to disconnect Savitar from the Speed Force, completely removing his powers.
	+ **Enhanced Mental Process**: The Speed Force enhances Wally's mental capacity to levels greater than any normal human, allowing him to take in and process information at an accelerated rate. This allows Wally to read through large amounts of information at super-speed. He can think so fast that he is able to hold two separate thoughts at once. Wally can think quickly, mapping out the potential outcomes of a situation and reading books in an instant.
	+ **Enhanced Senses**: The Speed Force grants Wally enhanced senses that allow him to perceive the world at a rate attuned to his reaction speed, as well as grants him extra temporal senses.
	+ **Molecular Acceleration**: Wally can vibrate his own molecular structure at varying degrees for a number of purposes, by adjusting to different frequencies.
		- **Intangibility**: Wally can vibrate his molecular structure to an intangible state, allowing objects to pass through him.
		- **Phasing**: By vibrating his molecules on an atomic level, and by doing so at just the right frequency, Wally can phase through objects such as walls without damaging them. He can allow others to phase through an object with him by vibrating them through physical contact
	+ **Sharing the Force**: Wally is able to use the Speed Force to "lend" velocity to objects or people already in motion. When he used the Speed Force Formula to give himself a massive speed boost, he was able to share this speed with the rest of the Flash Family.
	+ **Speed Steal**: Wally can use the Speed Force to absorb the speed and/or momentum from anyone or anything. He demonstrated this by slowing down an explosion, and even taught Kid Flash to do this.
	+ **Time Stopping**: Wally developed the ability to stop the flow of time when he temporarily gained a heart condition. This power would kick in when his heart rate would rise too high from straining himself at super-speed. While stopping time, Wally has the same advantages of moving at super-speed, without needing to move fast at all.
	+ **Time Travel**: By running fast enough, Wally is able to jump into the timestream and travel throughout it, without the aid of a Cosmic Treadmill.
