20 Mind-Blowing Facts You Didn't Know About The Flash

20. He Has A Secret Brother

When a drunken doctor botched the delivery of the child from the wealthy Thawne family, he stole one of Nora Allen's twins and told her that her baby was a stillborn. In actual fact, he switched the children, and The Flash's brother didn't learn of his true parentage until years later. Filled with jealousy over the loving family Barry had growing up (compared to the abuse he suffered) Malcolm became Cobalt Blue and set out to rob his brother of his speeding abilities. When the villain started a campaign to wipe out his descendants, a feud was born between the Allen and Thawne families which would last for centuries.
