Saviors of Earth: The Flash

Flash is an assistant scientist from the Criminal and Forensic Science Division of Central City Police Department. One night, as he was preparing to leave work, a freak lightning bolt struck a nearby shelf in his lab and doused him with a cocktail of unnamed chemicals. As a result, Barry found that he could run extremely fast and had matching reflexes. He donned a set of red tights sporting a lightning bolt, named himself the Flash, and became a crimefighter active in Central City.
