One lightning strike changed everything. Two boys were left searching for the truth.
When Ethan McGee was eight years old, he witnessed the impossible.
A man made of living lightning murdered his parents before vanishing into the night.
The authorities called it a tragic accident. Everyone told him to move on.
But Ethan knew what he saw.
On that same night, his best friend Barry Allen suffered a similar tragedy when his mother was killed by the very same mysterious force. Bound together by loss, the two boys grew up determined to uncover the truth behind the impossible events that shattered their lives.
Raised by renowned scientist Dr. Christina McGee, Ethan dedicated himself to science, believing that one day he would find the answers that had eluded everyone else.
Then the impossible happened again.
The S.T.A.R. Labs particle accelerator exploded, unleashing a wave of dark matter across Central City. Struck by a bolt of lightning infused with unimaginable energy, Ethan fell into a coma that lasted nine months.
When he finally awoke, he discovered that he had become something more than human.
Gifted with a connection to the mysterious Speed Force, Ethan can run faster than sound, faster than light, and faster than anyone thought possible.
Now, while maintaining the appearance of an ordinary scientist, Ethan secretly protects Central City as its scarlet guardian-the Flash.
But heroism is only part of his mission.
As dangerous metahumans emerge, ancient secrets unravel, and enemies from across time begin to surface, Ethan must confront the truth about the lightning that took his family and the monster responsible for it all.
Because some mysteries refuse to stay buried.
And some destinies cannot be outrun.
He is the fastest man alive.
He is The Flash.
