35. Character Progression - Wally West from DC Comics' The Flash (Mike Logsdon)

The only thing harder than blazing your own trail is doing it in the shadow of those who came before you.  Some keep pace with the demand while others may fall behind.  But some run right by everyone's expectations until they hit a new level, all their own.  And  if any series knows what it takes to run that race, it's The Flash!  DC Comics superhero, founding member of the Justice League, and star of a hit self-titled show on CW, The Flash is the fastest man alive and has a lineage of heroes spanning millennia.  Jay Garrick may have started the line and Barry Allen may have popularized it.  But for today's guest, no Flash will ever match the speed, personality, and story of the original Kid-Flash who took up the mantle after Crisis on Infinite Earths, Wally West!
