Impulse (Comic Book) | comment |
Impulse is the title of a DC book by Mark Waid, Ethan Van Sciver, Humberto Ramos and Wayne Faucher featuring the speedster Bart Allen that ran from 1995 until its cancellation in 2002.Spinning out of The Flash (1987), Bart Allen, Barry Allen's grandson from the future, is in the present to stay and he's sent to live with Max Mercury, formerly known as the speedster hero Quicksilver, in Alabama for guidance and guardianship. Bart enrolls in school where it quickly becomes apparent that being raised by virtual reality has not prepared him for interacting with real people, nor studying in such an environment. Bart manages to find some fast and loyal friends regardless of the inadvertent destruction he tends to leave in his wake and learns to get by in the modern age even if he never tries to fit in. Bart also ends up time traveling to other periods rather often during his adventures as Impulse.For the character see The Flash – The Flashes. For the second Impulse see The Flash – Other Speedsters. | |

Pull the Thread | |
Impulse (Comic Book) / int_109dbb51 | comment |
Pull the Thread: When Inertia impersonates Bart nearly everyone takes note of how different and more responsible (and less fun) he's behaving but puts it down to it being his reaction to his mentor's state as Max is dying at the time. Carol doesn't quite buy it and after playing along while doing her own research is able to discover Bart has been replaced. | |

Rogues' Gallery Transplant | |
Impulse (Comic Book) / int_2f8c5157 | comment |
Rogues' Gallery Transplant: One issue had Impulse having to deal with The Riddler note seeking Revenge by Proxy after his encounter with the Flash and Tim Drake in Robin , who Bart kept confusing for other villains. The Green Cigarette, believe it or not, was an incredibly minor character in Peter Milligan's Animal Man run. In a story that took place in an alternate universe. A villainous version of the character appears to bedevil Bart a couple of times. | |

Chuck Cunningham Syndrome | |
Impulse (Comic Book) / int_c33ba0a8 | comment |
Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Sadly the Impulse supporting cast soon vanished after his book ended, most notably Bart Allen's best friend Preston and love interest Carol. Much to fans' displeasure, one line in Geoff Johns' Teen Titans had Bart suggest it was Wonder Girl who got him to like girls, rather than mentioning Carol or even Arrowette (another crush of his). Bart's dog Dox was also never seen again or mentioned by any later writers. | |

Lighter and Softer: Despite the page image here, this series was more of a cartoon compared to the other comics at the same time. | |

Wake Up, Go to School & Save the World: Bart is going to school while he's not acting as Impulse, not that he pays much attention to anything the teachers there might be saying. | |

Crossover | |
Impulse (Comic Book) / int_eb6da8ef | comment |
Crossover: Bart tries to help out Zatanna with her magic show in issue 19, only to annoy her so much she accidentally sends him to another dimension trying to get him to just let her work. The Legion of Super-Heroes shows up in #21 looking for their missing member XS (Bart's cousin who'd been staying with him) or how she got back to the future, only to find that she's gone and Bart doesn't know how to get them home. "Lessons in Fear" features Superman showing up and helping out, while he was in his "must use my powers at all times to their fullest extent phase". Max had to explain to Bart how unhealthy this could be when Bart considered taking a page out of Supe's book. In issue 50 Imp goes to Gotham to play an April Fool's joke on Robin but ends up coming across Batman fighting the Joker and stops to help instead. Imp and Max visit Stars and S.T.R.I.P.E. for issue 61, and Max chats with Wildcat at the JSA headquarters as well. The Justice Leauge and the JSA attend a party for Max in issue 67. Green Lantern Kyle Rayner and Adam Strange feature in issues 68 and 69. With Young Justice for the Our Worlds at War event which plays out across the DCU. | |

Cool Big Sis: She appears only briefly, but Jesse Quick was this to Bart, as often as he annoyed her. | |
