Long before Barry Allen was struck by lightning and became the Scarlet Speedster, there were whispers of something-someone-beyond human comprehension. Around the world, myths spread of a mysterious white streak tearing across cities, deserts, and oceans faster than the eye could follow. Known only as "The White Flash," this enigmatic figure was more rumor than reality, a ghost in the Speed Force who seemed to appear and disappear at random.
But Astrid Force was no myth. Created by the Speed Force itself in response to an unknown cosmic disturbance, she exists as its living avatar-its protector, its warrior, and its guide. Astrid has spent years silently observing humanity, intervening only when the Speed Force's delicate balance was threatened. But as the world enters a new era of heroes and villains, her quiet existence is shattered.
When Barry Allen gains his powers and becomes The Flash, Astrid realizes that the Speed Force's plan is bigger than her. Drawn to Central City by the arrival of speedsters and threats beyond imagination, Astrid steps out of the shadows. Her arrival sparks curiosity, awe, and fear-not just from Team Flash but from those who seek to control or destroy the Speed Force.
As the years pass and the battle for the multiverse escalates, Astrid fights alongside Barry, Wally, and the rest of Team Flash, becoming an integral part of their journey. Her unparalleled connection to the Speed Force and her white lightning make her both a powerful ally and a target for enemies like Eobard Thawne, Zoom, and Savitar. Yet beneath her godlike power lies a growing conflict-can she remain a force of nature, or will the humanity she's come to love reshape her destiny?
From the night Barry Allen becomes The Flash to the final battle for the multiverse, this is the untold story of the Speed Force's greatest secret-the White Flash, the fastest being who ever lived.
