After a freak accident, young and impulsive Wallace Rudolph West gains superhuman speed, making him the fastest teenager in Central City. With the guidance of his mentor and fellow speedster, Wally West, Wallace becomes Kid Flash -- the city's newest defender against crime and danger.
As Wallace navigates his newly acquired abilities, he discovers a vast network of fellow-powered individuals, both friend and foe, and is called upon to use his powers to save Central City from a number of new threats. Alongside him on his journey are fellow reporters and friends, including his aunt Iris West and his love interest Linda Park, providing him with additional guidance and support.
As he becomes more confident in his powers and abilities, Wallace must learn to balance his desire to protect the city and his personal life, all while dealing with the challenges of adolescence, a discovery that there may be more speedsters like him, and the ever-present threat of villains.
