## Synopsis

Wally West, Flash's (Bary Allen) nephew who, after 12 years of keeping his powers a secret in Central City, decides to finally embrace his superhuman abilities and be the hero he was always meant to be. Twelve-year-old Wally was trapped in the cosmic lightning storm that also gave Barry Allen his powers. Protected and raised in Central City by Barry's girlfriend, Iris' older brother and his wife family, the Wests, Wally grew up in the shadow of his foster brother, Sam, and learned to conceal the phenomenal powers he shares with his famous uncle in order to keep his identity a secret. Years later at 24, Wally lives in Shore City assisting crime investigator Patty Spivot, who just hired the Central City Police Department’s former morgue worker, Linda Park, as her new press director. However, Wally's days of keeping his talents a secret are over when Max Mercury, head of a super-secret agency where his brother also works, enlists him to help them protect the citizens of Shore City from sinister threats. Though Wally will need to find a way to manage his newfound empowerment with his very regular-human relationships, his heart soars as he takes to the streets as Kid Flash to fight crime.
