Kid Flash is a speedster and side-kick to The Flash, a member of the Flash Family. His costume has the reverse color scheme of his mentor. Originally the character behind the mask was Wally West, the nephew of Barry Allen, who received his super-speed powers in an identical accident to his adult counterpart. West was Kid Flash for many years until Barry was killed during the Crisis on Infinite Earths and Wally graduated to assume his position. The second and current version is Bart Allen, a descendant of the Allen Family from the 30th Century who traveled back to our time as Impulse before graduating to his current title. They have both been regular members of the Teen Titans while using this alias. Kid Flash was created by John Broome and Carmine Infantino, first appearing in Flash #110. (1959)
