## Appearances

### First Appearance

The Flash Fanfiction: Part 1; Chapter 1: Scarlet and Sapphire Speedsters

**Iris Ann West-Morningstar** (née **West** and **West-Allen**; born June 24, 1989) is the co-leader of Team Flash, a former journalist of Central City Picture News, a former waitress at CC Jitters, a psychology graduate student, and the owner/editor of *The Central City Citizen*. She is also the daughter of Joe West and the late Francine West, the older sister of Wally West, the older paternal half-sister of Jenna West, the fiancée of the late Eddie Thawne, the wife of Barry Morningstar, Adoptive Sister turned Sister-in-law of Sam Allen and Caitlin Snow-Allen, and the mother of her future children, Nora and Bart West-Morningstar.

In the Flashpoint timeline, Iris and Joe seemed to have some tension since Iris didn't know about Francine being alive. She also knew that Wally was the Flash and they formed a brother-sister crime-fighting duo. After Flashpoint was removed from existence when Barry let Eobard Thawne kill Nora Allen in an attempt to restore the original timeline, Iris was estranged from her father Joe only to reconnect after hearing of Barry's time traveling. The life of Iris was later threatened by a powerful villain named Savitar, which they could foresee due to Barry accidentally traveling into the future trying to trap the villain, which was a future time remnant of Barry. Iris survived thanks to the sacrifice of H.R. Wells, and in the final battle, she killed Savitar, erasing him from existence.

After Barry's disappearance into the Speed Force, she took over Team Flash and coordinated the superhero activities of Vibe and Kid Flash. After Barry's return, she continued her position as team leader until she decided to retire and be a reporter again, serving as mission control, giving herself the code name "**Eye in the Sky**". During an encounter with the meta-human Mathew Kim/Melting Point, Iris briefly gained her husband's superspeed and took over as **The Flash**, before tracking down Kim and having him return the powers to Barry. She later helped Barry and his friends defeat Clifford DeVoe and became an older sister to her father and Cecile's new daughter, Jenna.

When Iris and Barry's future daughter, Nora, arrived in the present, Iris found out that her future daughter held a grudge against her for implanting a power-dampening chip inside Nora. Iris shocked at this, but she was determined to not do that to her daughter in the future, causing the two to bond as they worked with Team Flash to stop Orlin Dwyer and a future murderous Grace Gibbons. When Iris found out her daughter was working with Reverse-Flash, she showed no animosity to her after finding out why Nora started working with Thawne. After destroying Cicada's dagger, Nora was erased from existence, leaving Iris and Barry devastated.

During the Anti-Monitor Crisis, Iris was instrumental in convincing Ryan Choi, the Paragon of Humanity, to join their fight to save all of existence. Afterwards, on the new Earth, Iris began an investigation into the assassin guild called Black Hole, but her curiosity caused her to be trapped in another dimension called the Mirrorverse. But she was released months later thanks to Barry.
