Harrison Wells (Earth-2461)

Dr. Harrison "Harry"  Wells was a brilliant scientist working for the Cincinnati Branch of S.T.A.R. Labs. He was married to fellow scientist Tess McGee. He returned home one day to find Tess being murdered by a man who would later be revealed to be the Reverse Flash. Harrison was blamed for her murder and was jailed. After the S.T.A.R. Labs particle accelerator exploded, it caused a giant thundercloud to form and Harry was struck by lightning, falling comatose for nine months. When he woke up from his coma, he discovered that he had developed superhuman speed. Harry escaped from prison and began acting as a vigilante and superhero known as the Flash and was able to confront his wife's killer, revealing him as a time traveller known as Eobard Thawne. He went on to become a founding member of the Justice League.
