Summary
In this new timeline, details of Barry Allen's history have changed. He has never been married to Iris West, and instead is in a relationship with co-worker Patty Spivot. Bart Allen is still a member of the Teen Titans as Kid Flash, although their relationship is unclear. Wally West doesn't become Kid Flash and his future version is a speedster but that ends quick.
The New 52 timeline takes a new take and modifies many things on the Flash comics. Such as the Rogues gaining powers, Iris West's brother (Daniel West) as Reverse Flash, and Professor Zoom's time related powers coming from the Speed Force. In the New 52, the Speed Force can give people a variety of powers, much more than it did in previous continuities. It can give people the power of complete control of atomic structure, being able to go anywhere in space and time instantly, and having the power of controlling someone's age.

- His instincts and reflexes allow him to react and move the femtosecond he feels even the slightest changes in air pressure.
- Flash calls the Watch Tower’s computers slow, despite the fact that they can preform over 100 quadrillion calculations per second.
- Can learn how to use Hal Jordan's Power Ring in seconds.
- Can speed up all of time and space and take everything a few seconds into the future, choosing who to take with him and who to leave behind, skipping a time paradox in the process.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- Accelerated Healing: Barry isn't invulnerable, nor durable enough to sustain damage. However if he is harmed he will heal at high speeds. Any normal wear and tear damage to his bodies are almost instantly healed.
- Flight: Barry can rotate his arms and spin his body like a top to achieve something resembling helicopter flight.
- Increased Perceptions: Barry traveling at incredibly high speeds may miss important events as they run by. The Speed Force grants him enhanced senses that allow him to see, hear, smell, touch and/or taste at an increased speed and understand it as it is processed.
- Phasing: Barry can vibrate his molecules so quickly that he can achieve intangibility allowing him to phase through objects.
- Supercharged Brain Activity: Barry can access superhuman levels in his brain further than processing information. He can test theories, understand difficult equations and run trial and error in his brain at superhuman speeds. Barry can think of an enormous number of outcomes of a situation if he focuses the Speed Force on his brain.
- Vortex Creation: Barry can rotate his arms and cause an incredible amount of wind to burst through his focused funnel. Barry uses this ability automatically when he runs, reducing the air currents around his body to low enough levels to no longer inhibit their speed. Creatively, Barry can create tornadoes and gusts with his arms.
- Speed Force Drag: Can drag people into the Speed Force and have increased stats and control over his power. Barry can even defy gravity and grab things using the Speed Force lightning-aura.
- Time Shift: Barry is connected to time in a similar way like Professor Zoom, but Barry doesn't slow time down, he can move it forward.
