Who is Mary West?

Mary West is the mother of Wally West, the speedster known as Kid Flash and later The Flash, placing her at the heart of one of DC's most prominent super-hero families. She appears as a supporting character connected to the West family's corner of the DC universe.

Stepping onto the Bronze Age DC stage in the pages of The New Teen Titans #8 in 1981 — courtesy of the legendary creative team of Marv Wolfman, George Pérez, and Romeo Tanghal — Mary West has kept remarkable company across three decades of comics, sharing adventures with the likes of Wally West, Kid Flash, The Flash, and Green Lantern. Her presence across titles like Flash and The New Teen Titans places her squarely in some of the most beloved corners of the DC universe, woven into stories that defined an era. With a publishing history stretching all the way to 2011, she's a quietly enduring figure whose sixteen appearances reward the dedicated reader hunting for every thread in the rich tapestry of DC's speedster mythology.
