The Tornado Twins are a pair of superheroes in the DC Universe and were descendants of the Flash.
Origin[]
Descendants of the superhero the Flash, Don and Dawn Allen learned that they could gain super speed on "Flash Day", a holiday honoring the Flash.
Biography[]
Donald Wallace Allen and Dawn Jae Allen were the children of Barry Allen (better known as the superhero The Flash) and Iris West. Born after their father's death, they were raised in the 30th Century by their mother. They were born with super powers but Iris encouraged the children to hide them, knowing that the Earth Government was known for exploiting superpowered people. When Wally West, Barry Allen's successor, ended up in the future after a battle with the speedster villain Savatar, he encountered the twins.
In other media[]
