Fastest Killer Alive (Last 52 Multiverse)

The Fastest Killer Alive was a Wally West from a Last 52 reality where he became a serial killer after the Sanctuary incident.

History

On his home reality, this version of Wally was also sent to the Sanctuary like his primary counterpart and killed some of the superheroes in rehab. However, unlike the Prime Earth Wally, he enjoyed these murders and became a sadist serial killer: victims of his madness included his reality's version of the Teen Titans.

Later, he was summoned, along with other villains from the Last 52 worlds, to be part of the Darkest Knight's forces that fought against the Earth 0's resistance army. During the clashes, he targeted the Teen Titans, shooting at them with his guns, but his shots were stopped by his Prime Earth counterpart. The Fastest Killer Alive menaced Wally to gun him down in order to make him "famous" for his death like Barry Allen but, before he could deliver his fatal shot, he was killed by an arrow in the head that was fired by the undead Roy Harper.^[1]
