Biography:
Jay Garrick is a superhero known as The Flash in the DC universe. Created by writer Gardner Fox and artist Harry Lampert, he first appeared in Flash Comics #1 (January 1940). He is typically portrayed as the Golden Age Flash, operating primarily during World War II. He is often distinguished from later speedsters, such as Barry Allen, by his winged helmet and his origin story, which usually involves inhaling "hard water" vapors that grant him his super-speed.
Garrick's powers include superhuman speed, allowing him to run at incredible velocities, generate cyclones, and vibrate through solid objects. Unlike some versions of the Flash, Garrick's connection to the Speed Force is often portrayed as being somewhat less direct, relying more on his inherent metahuman physiology.
In more recent interpretations, especially on television, Jay Garrick is a character who has appeared in multiple universes, further cementing his legacy as a key figure in the DC multiverse. He frequently acts as a mentor to younger speedsters, offering his experience and wisdom.
