HISTORY
The son of an evil king from a fairy tale land, Grimm was inspired by Wally West, Kid Flash when the latter visited his world with his mentor, the Barry Allen Flash. Told by Wally that he didn't have to follow in his predecessor's footsteps, Grimm at first rebelled against the evil of his father's land. Much later, he learnt that Wally had taken up Barry's mantle as the Flash, and felt betrayed - Wally was a hypocrite! He set about a campaign to punish Wally, becoming obsessed with his wife Linda. He has made two attempts to kidnap Linda for his own and to kill Wally, but has failed on each occasion. He is made more dangerous in that he can sense the use of the speed force, so he always knows when Wally is coming.
