West was Kid Flash for many years until Barry was killed during the Crisis on Infinite Earths and Wally graduated to assume his position. The second version is Bart Allen, a descendant of the Allen Family from the 30th Century who traveled back to our time as Impulse before graduating to his current title. The third and current version is Wallace "Ace" West, the cousin of the original Kid Flash, who has the same name as him. They have all been regular members of the Teen Titans while using this alias and the third has been a member of Defiance.
