Having discovered his mother murdered and his father blamed for the act, forensic scientist Barry Allen sought to clear his father's name and find the real killer. After being doused in chemicals and struck by lightning, Barry was granted the gift of super-speed. Now he protects his hometown of Central City as The Flash, the fastest man alive and founding member of the Justice League.
Wally West was boring when he was Kid Flash, but when he was The Flash, he was awesome (and personally my favorite of all the Flashes). Bart Allen was best when he was Impulse back in the Mark Waid series, but he also got pretty boring as Kid Flash. Either way, he still wasn't as good of a sidekick as Irey. Jai is cool and certainly one of my favorites (not once was he ever boring), but it seemed like he wasn't involved in the stories as much as he could be.
Irey West was perfection. She had a great father-daughter relationship with Wally ( http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/8/84359/1966703-flash_241.jpg ) and always seemed like the best Kid Flash to me (Bart I only liked as Impulse and The Flash). She and her dad made the perfect team.
