Best Answer

The Flash can refer to a couple different people.

The first is Jay Garrick, the original Flash. He gained the ability to run at superspeed through a lab accident. He appeared mostly in the Golden Age of comics (the 1930's through the early 1950's) but occasionally shows up in modern media as a retired Flash.

The second is Barry Allen. He is one of the two most mainstream Flashes. Barry was a forensic scientist with a habit of running late, but one night a bolt of lightning struck a shelf of chemicals, which crashed over him, giving him superspeed.

The third is Wally West, the second most mainstream Flash. He was originally Barry Allen's sidekick, Kid Flash, until Barry died. Wally is Barry's nephew, who got his powers on a visit to the police station where Barry worked when the exact same lab accident that gave Barry his powers occurred again (in some versions, Wally recreated the event himself to give him his powers).
