A unique combination of comic-book illustration and prose, The Life Story of the Flash follows Barry Allen from his humble childhood to his noble death, dealing with his transformation from a methodical police scientist to one of the DC Universe's most dynamic heroes-one whose legacy endures years after his death. The biography reveals new details of Allen's personal life, as well as insights into his infamous Rouges Gallery, the history of his young prot'eg'e (and current Flash) Wally West, and the heartbreak of his wife Iris' "death", as well as Barry's largely unknown life in the 30th century, when he and Iris were reunited and finally became parents. The ultimate Flash book, The Life Story of the Flash is a must-have addition to the collection of anyone who is, or has ever been, a Flash fan.
