[edit] Character history

Malcolm Thawne was the twin of Barry Allen. The doctor that delivered the twins accidentally killed the child that belonged to Charlene Thawne. To cover the mistake, he gave Malcolm to the Thawnes and told the Allens that one of the twins had been stillborn.

Raised by uncaring parents, Malcolm ran away and, finding out about the truth, killed the doctor.

Years later, after finding his twin, he became jealous of the life Barry had. Using the Thawne's gem, he became Cobalt Blue. He attacked Allen and Wally West (Kid Flash at the time). Years later, he attacked Wally West, now the new Flash, and was defeated.
