The Flash is a classic DC superhero whose debut launched the Silver Age of comics, but what if everything we know about Barry Allen's origin as the Scarlet Speedster is wrong? What if that lightning bolt that struck him and doused him in chemicals wasn't a freak accident, but was a deliberate choice? Today we're talking about Barry's history with an imp named Mopee to learn the REAL origin of the Flash!
Every Wednesday, Comic Misconceptions explores fascinating trivia, crazy stories, and mind-blowing theories about the comic book universe from Marvel, DC, and beyond!
