Barry Allen (Earth-1: Post-Crisis)

"Make your own future. Make your own past. It's all...right...now."

- Barry Allen

Bartholomew Henry "Barry" Allen is a vigilante from Central City. After his interaction with his Earth-1 doppelgänger, he started to use the alias as The Flash after his doppelgänger introduced himself as The Flash and gave Barry the idea of the name.

Early life
Barry was born on September 30, 1992, in Central City, in Ohio, to Henry and Nora Allen. When Barry was 9 years old, his mother was murdered and his father was arrested for her murder despite Barry's protest.

Getting powers
One night, Barry was struck by lightning which gave him super speed becoming a Meta-Human.

Monitored by Lex Luthor
At some point, Barry witnessed an armed robbery and used his speed to stop the criminal. Unbeknownst to him, Lex Luthor caught him on camera and kept him in his files with other Meta-Humans.

Stopping Captain Boomerang
When Captain Boomerang tried to rob the Central City Diamond Exchange, Barry disguised with a red suit appeared and stopped him.

Crisis on Infinite Earths
During the Crisis, Barry was present in the Speed Force and was not aware of the event. Later, his Earth-1 doppelgänger met him and Barry thought he was a cosplayer. Barry of Earth-1 told him that they are both the Flash, an alias he has not yet used on his universe. They both were impressed by each other's suit and introduced themselves as Barry Allen. Barry of Earth-1 claimed that this is not possible now which confused Barry as he was not aware of the Crisis. Barry slowly faded away saying he told Victor it was possible.

Powers
"It's like this layer of dimensional reality that seems to manipulate space-time. I call it the Speed Force. It causes me to burn a tremendous amount of calories, so I am just a black hole of snacks. I am a snack hole."
