The Flash: Born to Run\\n
When Wally West, the adolescent nephew of the Flash\\u2019s fianc\\xe9e, accidentally gained powers of super speed, he became the Scarlet Speedster\\u2019s sidekick. Growing up as his hero\\u2019s prot\\xe9g\\xe9, Kid Flash had a childhood of amazing action and adventure. But on the day that the Flash died, Wally\\u2019s carefree adolescence abruptly ended and his life as an adult began. THE FLASH: BORN TO RUN looks back at Wally\\u2019s earliest days as the Kid Flash and explores the gamut of his emotions and experiences from his first day as a child hero to his succession of Barry Allen as the new Flash. A journey full of humor and drama, this story shows just how much Wally West loves being the fastest man alive.
