In "The Flash", we witness the thrilling origin story of Barry Allen. The story begins with Barry Allen as a brilliant forensic scientist working for the Central City Police Department. After a lightning bolt strikes his lab, Barry is doused in a combination of chemicals and subjected to a powerful electrical surge. Miraculously surviving the incident, he discovers that he has gained the incredible ability to move at incredible speeds. Embracing his newfound powers, Barry becomes The Flash, using his extraordinary speed to protect the innocent and fight against the rising tide of crime in Central City. As he unravels the mystery behind his transformation, he faces off against the formidable "Turtle-Man", who harbors the Still Force and serves as the anti-thesis to The Flash, as well as facing off against iconic members of his Rouge's Gallery. This is to be part of James Gunn's new DC Cinematic Universe.
