barry allen is always wearing sweaters and vests not just because he's a nerd but also because when he was growing up (and really anytime before he got superspeed) he would be really cold. Suddenly drafty rooms and inexplicable wind on a otherwise fine day always around him, so he needed something to be more warm. the wind was of course thawne being his usual hater self doing both petty and totally fucked up thing to absolutely ruin barry's life, and causing some wind in the process. bastard probably knows he made it really cold and embraced it too.

Have I mentioned it’s kind of hot when he loses it and starts to go full Speed Force because it’s hot when he loses it and goes full Speed Force.

Barry Allen is such a fun character. He's a 1950s midwestern forensic scientist. He will accept literally anyone into his family. He endlessly forgives as an attack measure against his villains. He and those villains played Santa together. He is the paragon of hope and the heart of the universe. He rambles at Batman about cold cases. He is the cosmic avatar for time and when they say he runs them all to the future that's super literal. He gives his friends Terrible relationship advice. Everyone loves him his family would do anything for him. His mere existence determines the status of a universe and he can change it in an instant. He thinks he's some normal guy on the justice league. He can connect himself to every living thing on Earth and change their standing in time. He marvels in space at the Earth wondering if Clark feels like 'this' everytime he stares down

The flashes have:
• weird found family that is a mix of a found family and blood family and most of them actually truly get along and care about each other even if some of them are little sassy.
• have powers where the upper echelon of their brood, with the most power are verging on multiverse and time gods and the ones just starting out still range on the side of most destructive meta humans on earth, if they are still human at all.
• their most interesting villains are crime syndicate with a amazing dental and medical plan who usually have something approaching morals.
I think they make other heroes only a little jelly beans cause they have all these boons and they are still interesting as characters to watch.
like it's actually so crazy if you think about it. in 1938 the DC universe time began. but the way time works in DC it's easier to think of time as the addition of every second. it's static not accumulative. 1 second 1 second 1 second 1 second and on to eternity. A life is made up of seconds coming together 1 2 3 4 5 6. But this didn't happen not for 18 years. Until 1956 when Barry Allen was struck by lightning in both canon and out of universe. Things started moving Forward
Tumblr media
(The Flash: Rebirth)
And he made the speed force. He keeps the present in the present and the rest of time away by generating the kinetic force that makes the lightning that gives the Flashes their speed.
Barry canonically moves Time forward by existing but he can also force it. He did so twice once fighting reverse flash/zoom and once fighting the turtle. When fighting Turtle, Barry connected himself to every living being except Turtle and pulled them all into the future by a few seconds to thwart his Turtley plans.
And Wally well I have a theory that Wally stores the memories the moments added together that make a life. In 1986 Barry reset the universe and everyone's minds got Fucked. Before Final Crisis when they bring back Wally from the speedforce it causes Bruce and Hal to remember Barry and incorrectly assume he's the one coming back. In 2011 when Flashpoint happened Barry did it Without Wally. Wally who was in the speedforce and got stuck again and once again everyone's backstories reset and their memories were fucked. In 2016 when Wally breaks out he returns memories to people. With Infinite Frontier this is the first universe reset where Wally's speed force is actively contributing to what happens and not only do people retain their current memories they start getting All their old memories back.
Reverse Flash represented paradoxes in time. But in the most recent run Barry phases through him giving him some speed force. And Eobard gets reset to how he should have been. Becoming connected to Barry fixes his Present. That kinetic wall between the present and time.
Bart I have no idea what they're doing with him they should be remembering that he's the best Fighter of the flashes. That he's vicious and blitzes enemies like Godspeed. Also how Bart is the most scatter brained and seemingly can not slow down unlike his grandpa and cousin. Yet he also is the only one of the entire family to be able to retain what he's learned forever. And has I think the greatest feats of cosmic awareness basically teaching himself about the meta of the DC universes reboots. Bart I think should represent the inevitability of the future coming. No matter how many changes you think you can make a future will always be there. Something to be said for him being a character created during Zero Hour year too I'm sure of it.

Bart Allen's early life really is a psychological horror.
Everything he once knew as fact, was a lie. The world he was used to living in was entirely a fantasy, he was dying, but there was no cure, he was doomed to live in the fantasy until the end of his days. A woman he had no knowledge of rescues him and suddenly he is in the real world with 0 real world life skills, nothing makes sense, everything hurts, everyone expects you to just get it - but how can you get anything when you just had your entire life just start over and you never had to get anything before? But they all tell you that you need to stop, slow down, that's not how you do that, stop being weird, do things at normal speed but what the hell is normal speed when this is what normal is to us?
