Barry Allen is a police scientist (his job was later changed to a forensic investigator) with a reputation for being very slow, and frequently late, which frustrates his fiancée, Iris West. When Barry was a child, his mother was murdered, and Barry's father was unjustly blamed. It was actually the Reverse-Flash. One night, as he is working late on a new case, a lightning bolt strikes and shatters a case full of unspecified chemicals and drenches all over Barry, temporarily knocking him out. As a result, Allen later finds that he can run at super-human speeds and possesses equally enhanced reflexes, senses, and healing. He later dons a red bodysuit, sporting a lightning bolt in the chest (reminiscent of the original Fawcett Comics Captain Marvel), dubs himself the Flash (after his childhood comic book hero, Jay Garrick), and becomes Central City's resident costumed crime fighter and protector.
