Bart Allen is a speedster, the original character known as Impulse, the second Kid Flash, and the fourth hero known as The Flash. Originally born in the 30th Century as a descendant of the Allen Family, he traveled back to our time and became a member of the Flash Family. His grandfather is Barry Allen, and his mentors have included Wally West and Jay Garrick, along with Max Mercury. Originally given the codename Impulse for his impulsiveness, he became Kid Flash after learning greater self-control, and eventually The Flash when he grew up further. Bart was killed by the Rogues during Full Throttle, but resurrected as Kid Flash again during Final Crisis. He is a founding member of Young Justice and a member of the Teen Titans and Legion of Super-Heroes. Bart Allen was created by Mark Waid and Mike Wieringo, first appearing in Flash (Volume 2) #92.
