HISTORY
A reporter from Central City who fell in love with the eternally-late
Barry Allen, Iris West was eventually to learn that not only was Barry also the super-fast Flash, but that her nephew
Wally was his sidekick. She married her lover and, through a series of horrible events, wound up in the future, where she bore twin children shortly before Barry's apparent death. She later returned to the present day with one of her grandchildren,
Impulse, and has settled here, though for some time she kept herself to herself, fearing she knew too much of the future. For a time she resided near her nephew Wally, and adopted
Josh Jackam, the son of Julie Jackam and
Mark Mardon. Josh died during the event known as
Final Crisis, which also brought back Barry Allen.
