Engelsk Terminsprøve - What a Character!

For my character I have decided to write about Barry Allen, also known as The Flash. Barry Allen, or The Flash is the main protagonist of the TV-series called, “The Flash”. When Barry Allen was a child, his mother Nora Allen, was killed, and his father, Henry Allen, was convicted of the crime. Barry knowing his father was innocent, gave him a strong belief in justice. After a particle accelerator exploded, Barry was struck by lightning resulting in him lying in a coma for 9 months. When he woke up, he finds out he has superhuman abilities - superhuman speed (He will be known as a speedster at a later time). He eventually finds out that other people was also affected by the particle accelerator explosion, and they had gotten superhuman abilities. Only to his surprise though, they were not all using it for good. Together with his friend at Star Labs, they protect the city of New York against all of the evilminded villains. Barry Allen is a caucasian male with brown hair and bluish-green eyes. He is a person that needs friends to be at his fullest, as it is shown in one of the very first episodes. His adoptive father, Joe West did not believe in his abilities, which weakened Barry mentally, making him unable to beat the villain in that specific episode. The head of Star Labs, Harrison Wells convinces Joe West that he needs to tell Barry that he believes in him. As it turned out, being told by his adoptive father that he could do it, made him do it. In season 1, the main antagonist is Reverse-Flash/Eobard Thawne. Eobard Thawne is also a speedster that can travel through time. Eobard Thawne finds out in a later timeline that his worst enemy is going to be The Flash. He travels back in time in hope of killing him when he was a child, he was unsuccessful in his attempt as The Flash from the future travels back in time to save Barry, but his mother, Nora Allen dies. Unfortunately, as a side-effect, Eobard Thawne lost his ability to travel through time. In season 2, the main antagonist is Zoom/Hunter Zolomon, is also a speedster. Zooms only goal is to become the fastest man alive, and he does this by destroying The Flash, not necessarily killing him, but siphoning the power out
