On the Next Major Spoilers Podcast: The Flash: Born to Run (1992)
It comes as no surprise that Young Zach has not read too many comics featuring The Flash. This week, the Major Spoilers Podcast fixes that by not only looking back at the origin of Wally West, but also the introduction of a new Flash writer, one Mr. Mark Waid.
When Wally West, the adolescent nephew of the Flash’s fiancée, accidentally gained powers of super speed, he became the Scarlet Speedster’s sidekick. Growing up as his hero’s protégé, Kid Flash had a childhood of amazing action and adventure. But on the day that the Flash died, Wally’s carefree adolescence abruptly ended and his life as an adult began. THE FLASH: BORN TO RUN looks back at Wally’s earliest days as the Kid Flash and explores the gamut of his emotions and experiences from his first day as a child hero to his succession of Barry Allen as the new Flash. A journey full of humor and drama, this story shows just how much Wally West loves being the fastest man alive.
