Malcolm Thawne

Malcolm Thawne is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics as Cobalt Blue, an enemy of the Flash. The character was created by Mark Waid and Brian Augustyn, and first appeared in Speed Force #1 (November 1997). He is the twin brother of Barry Allen, an enemy of Wally West, and an ancestor of Eobard Thawne.

Malcolm was raised as the son of con artists, Hugo and Charlene, who lure unsuspecting victims. He learned in Central City that he's actually Henry Allen's and Nora Allen's son who Dr. Asa Gilmore used to cover Hugo's and Charlene's true child's accidental killing, resulting in him tracking down and murdering the doctor in a rage. His grandmother helped train him as he was fueled by rage and jealousy to utilize the Cobalt Blue gem capable of stealing super-speed. His first attempt against Barry ended in failure, and he was absorbed into the Cobalt Blue gem, only to re-emerge years later after Barry's death during the "Crisis on Infinite Earths" with Wally as a successor. Apparently having been cheated out of his dreams of revenge, Malcolm instead focused on his brother's descendants traveling through time in a bid to exterminate. His Cobalt Blue identity ignited a family feud that endured for a millennium. The feud came to a head in the late 30th century, where Barry was living with Iris Allen and Wally arrived as protection. Various speedsters (including Jay Garrick, the Tornado Twins and XS) are under the control of Thawne's spirit as each one carried a shard of the original Cobalt Blue gem. After defeating the other speedsters, Thawne's menace ended with Wally overloading the Cobalt Blue gem with the Speed Force's energy.
