Kid Flash

Kid Flash is the teenage speedster identity of Wally West, nephew of Barry Allen (the Flash), who gained the same super-speed powers as his uncle through an identical freak laboratory accident. This entry represents the character as published in French-language DC comics by Semic S.A.

Bursting onto the page in 1971 courtesy of the legendary creative duo of John Broome and Carmine Infantino, this Kid Flash is a Bronze Age speedster whose catalog presence is distinctly shaped by Semic S.A.'s French-language DC publications. Appearing most prominently in titles like Spécial DC and Comics Signatures, this version of the character keeps genuinely stellar company — sharing adventures with the likes of Robin, Flash, Green Lantern, Wally West, and Dick Grayson across a remarkable span stretching all the way to 2025. For collectors with a passion for international comics and the rich history of European DC publishing, tracking down these appearances is a rewarding niche pursuit that connects the global reach of superhero comics to one of the most beloved legacy identities in the DC universe.
