Red Gloves


Before Kid Flash made his debut, he was given the chance to design his own costume. He drew a little from his Uncle's costume design, but overall kept it original. Red? Nope. He didn't need the villains taunting him with names like 'mini-Flash'. He went for yellow - bright, vibrant - something to stand out against the famous Flash.

Yet, when it came to the gloves, Wally couldn't help but colour them in red.

It'd looked a little off the way they seemed to be drawn on last minute, looking a little too simple and similar to dishwashing gloves. He'd laughed it off when Flash questioned him about the choice, but inwardly he knew exactly why.

While Wally was a superhero now, he was not infallible. He would try his best on every mission of course, but if he failed … he knew he wouldn't be able to bear to see blood stained on his hands.
