How many Flash's were there?

Question

Including Kid Flash, I know there were Wally West (Flash), Wally West (again?)(Kid Flash), but somewhere I read something about Barry Allen? I'm kind of confused.

Answer 1

Yeah Barry Allen was the Silver age Flash who died in Crisis on Infinite earths, Jay Garrick was the Golden Age Flash, and Wally West was once Kid Flash now the current Flash.

Answer 2

There are 3: Jay Garrick, Barry Allen and Wally West.

Answer 3

Hi. 4 because there is Jay Garrek, Bartholomew (Barry) Allen, Wally West and Bartholomew (Bart) Allen. I heard Bart ( Who was the flash in smallville who was called impulse even he didn't choose his name like in the comics i heared and he is for me the best flash and he was the fastest flash before he got shot in the knee) and Barry were father and son (Bart's the son of Barry). Also there is 2 Kid flashes Wallly and Bart. There is also a Flashback and Reverse (and 2 Doctor Zooms who are fast like flash but not as fast) Flash who I think are bad guys apart from Dr. Zoom who I know is a bad guy. Also Bart Simpon was based on flash which is how they came up with Bart man. Lastly Wally West's uncle was The Flash I just read of my top trump card. Sorry I don't read comics but I know a lot about superheroes cause I'm a superhero geek, expecially DC and Flash just happens to be my 3rd favourite superhero.

Answer 4

3 Flashes:

Golden Age Flash: Jay Garrick

Silver Age Flash: Barry Allen

Silver Age Kid Flash: Wally West

Bronze Age Flash: Wally West upon death of Barry Allen

Answer 5

Where is the love for Bart?

As everyone has mentioned,

Golden Age Flash, Jay Garrick

Silver Age Flash, Barry Allen (died or did he?)

Wally West was Kid Flash, now is current Flash

Bart Allen was Impulse, Kid Flash (Teen Titans), and, for a short time, Flash.  Wally West disappeared for a time, so Bart became Flash but died.  Wally returned and took up the Flash role again.

4 Flash heroes

Answer 6

I agree with Dennis. There are 4 people who wore the Flash costume and assumed the role as Flash. Why isn't Bart included?
