After a particle accelerator causes a freak storm, CSI Investigator Barry Allen is struck by lightning and falls into a coma. Months later he awakens with the power of super speed, granting him the ability to move through Central City like an unseen guardian angel. Though initially excited by his newfound powers, Barry is shocked to discover he is not the only “meta-human” who was created in the wake of the accelerator explosion — and not everyone is using their new powers for good. Barry partners with S.T.A.R. Labs and dedicates his life to protect the innocent. For now, only a few close friends and associates know that Barry is literally the fastest man alive, but it won’t be long before the world learns what Barry Allen has become…The Flash.

Harrison Wells = H.G. Wells (Time Machine) = Future Barry Allen

It is if they are using a bit of the new 52 story line... Regardless this show is doing a great job with the mystery behind him and just with everything else!

I think I have a good idea who he might be, but that's not just a Flash character per say, so I'd rather not speculate on it too much, I'm sure whenever the reveal comes it'll be epic regardless

@batz11 Also, we've seen what Barry Allen looks like 10 years from now. He looks like an older version of himself, not Wells.

Gusto thinks Wells is Bart Allen, but I think that's a bit of a strecth.

Maybe he's a wizard?

@batz Seeing that Gusto has lived through medieval times, he could very well be a wizard...

Oh, you were talking about Wells. My bad.

;P
