Biography

A Tuskegee airman from the US army he piloted an experimental aircraft which disappeared right as his team entered the war. He spent the next seventy years driven almost completely mad from loneliness and isolation. When Barry Allen got his powers he saw it as a way to finally escape his prison. However he could not escape and caused many disasters which pulled others into the speed force. When he finally met Flash he explained his connecting to the speed force, a form of symbiosis. He wanted to return to his original time but Flash feared what effect that would have on the timeline and so pulled him into the present.
