Which Versions Of The Flash Are Going To Be Appearing In Season 2?

If you watched the CW’s hit television show The Flash last year, then you were treated to one of the best television adaptations we have seen of the Scarlet Speedster in years. Mind you, we watched the TV show in the 90s with John Wesley Shipp and LOVED it, but this new version is light years ahead. One of the things the executive producers of the show like to do is toss out Easter eggs to the fans of the DC universe. This season was no exception, including casting Shipp as Barry Allen’s father on the show as well as a direct nod in the finale to the very first version of The Flash from the comics. Hardcore comic-book fans will know that there have been a few different versions of the character over the years, but new fans or people whose only familiarity with the character are from the television show were probably wondering what was up with that metal helmet with wings. We thought we would give you a primer on all the different versions of The Flash over the years and also tell you which two of these four have been confirmed to join Barry Allen in season two of The Flash.

Bart Allen Version

Bartholomew Henry “Bart” Allen II is part of a complicated lineage which includes Barry Allen and Iris West as paternal grandparents and Meloni Thawne and Don Allen as parents. For most of his superhero career, Bart is the new Kid Flash to Wally West’s grownup Flash. He eventually joins the Teen Titans and then, when Wally West apparently dies in the Infinite Crisis storyline, Bart grows up and takes on the mantle of The Flash.

This version of Kid Flash also appears in multiple other storylines, including Blackest Night, Infinite Crisis, Flashpoint and The New 52. One of the interesting things about this character is that he suffers from hyper-accelerated metabolism, causing him to age faster the more he uses his speed force powers.
