Biography:
Jay Garrick is the original Flash, a Golden Age speedster from DC Comics. He first appeared in Flash Comics #1 (January 1940). Unlike later versions of the Flash who draw their speed from the Speed Force, Jay gained his powers after inhaling hard water vapors in a lab accident during his time as a student.
This accident granted him the ability to move and think at superhuman speeds, allowing him to become a hero. Jay is easily recognizable by his steel helmet, an homage to the Roman god Mercury. He served as a prominent member of the Justice Society of America, DC's first superhero team.
Jay's character embodies a more grounded and less overtly 'superpowered' approach compared to subsequent Flashes. He relies on his resourcefulness and determination, making him a beloved and enduring figure in the DC Universe.
