- Опубліковано 5 лют 2025
- Kid Flash: Running West is a short fan film following the lives of Wally West and Artemis Crock. The two have left behind their superhero identities and moved on to college in hopes of leading normal lives together. When trouble arises, however, Wally is faced with the choice of whether or not he wants to pick up his former mantle as a hero.
After more than a year of work, the film is finally complete. This project could not have been accomplished without all the support we’ve received, so thank you to all who helped out!
Today marks the birth and death of Wally West in the Young Justice Canon. On June 20, he sacrificed his life as a hero, and this film celebrates his journey into becoming that hero.

i love the effects on this fanfilm. So much better than all the others I have seen.
This fan film was brilliant in terms of acting and story Thank you for making such an awesome piece of content for us diehard DC Comics Fans
Amazing effects, acting and plot. Loved it
I have waited a fucking year YESSSS
This was epic. You should team up with Ismahawk and do a Nightwing Kidflash Fan film
That would be fun!
10:09 made me laugh so hard "dick" "what" "i wasnt saying your name" lol
"Dick"
"What?"
"I wasn't saying your name"
BWAAAHAHAHHAAAHAHAHAAAAA
Well I really enjoyed this, Wally West is my favorite character of all time! So I really appreciate this.
Man this is awesome make more I've been waiting ages for this
This is the best Kid Flash Fan Film I have ever seen
I loved this film and the costumes, but I thought he smiled to much at the begging. I also liked how you showed what it looked like for wally while he was running. :)
this is great it's awsome to see a fan flash film not based of the TV show. too many people are blinded by the TV show and forget about the some of the easier comic lore like how there are other costumes and flashes etc
Well done! Glad I found this. The actors playing Wally and Dick were perfect. I could see either of them in their own film. Artemis actress was also good.
YESSSS I've been waiting for so long thank you
Best fanmade video ever
Ok so the directing and camera work were pretty good, there were a couple of places where the acting was a little cringe worthy but overall not bad. The more you rehearse your lines the less you worry about them and the more you can concentrate on your acting, also the best actors act with their eyes. Keep at it, I love these fan films.
Awsome work! Keep up :D
I loved it. The suit could've been more detailed but still everything else was perfect.
That was amazing! For an indie - fan film, you guys did amazing! Agree with everyone tho...that costume for wally....that was painful. ahah his face looked so smushed 😂
Damn this was amazing. Kudos to y'all!
I'm a big fan of Wally West and this was perfect!
Great Job you guys!
Duddeeeee amazing film!!!
good film keep it up awesome job I give y'all clapps good actors to👍👍👍
This is awesome! man really amazing!
Awesome!!!!!! :)
Very Awesome!!!! :)
Well Done!
Now that's what i call a fan made film. The Dialouges was so amazing , the effects was so awsome , the charecters were awsome too but the fighting scenes were a bit bad. Keep it up Boys.
This was a good film. I liked the special effects. would like to see more lightening surge through Wally West as he taps into the speed force. I definitely look forward to another film from you guys. I know budget can be an issue. Even CW has budget issues when it comes to special effects but hey I like what you guys are doing.
Great fan film. I wish it was longer but I'm pretty sure there is gonna be a sequel to this. Right???
Let me mention a few things I like
1. The chemistry between Wallace and Artemis
2. Superspeed effect
3. The film starting off with a kill
4. The chemistry between Wally and Richard
A few things I didn't like
1. The costume
2. The bad guy was poorly used
3. Not enough superspeed. Even tho Wally does not want to use his speed.
Now I have 2 questions about the film.
1. Is this suppose to take place within the Young Justice continuity. And if yes where are all the other characters at?
2. Why was there not mention to the flash members (Ex. Barry, Iris, Linda etc)
If you do decide to do future installments, I have few suggestions you can do if you would like to hear them.
Thanks, glad you liked it! For your questions:
1. Technically no. But theoretically yes.
2. As for other characters, they weren't a part of this short & brief story, so they did not appear.
To elaborate on both answers: essentially we wanted to make this our own storyline as to not infringe on existing DC shows. But theoretically, this would take place between seasons 1 & 2 of Young Justice.
+Lumis Entertainment KID FLASH costume looks great just do more work with the mask so his hair is lsnt all puffed up and more work with the goggles every thing else is awesome!!!!!!!!!
Giovanni M. Kyh😡💩🙁😫🤕
This was awesome.Nice Work!!
This Was Really Good.. The Effects And All
It was all around solid. Audio was good, it was well shot too. Acting was also really solid. There are some hiccups for sure as with any small indie flick or fan film. But I will say I am absolutely certain you can do better with the suit. That Kid Flash suit doest look great, but the bigger issue is that I look at that and minus the symbol nothing about it says "Flash Family" to me.
But still, good job all around.
I think it was his stealth mode costume from Young Justice but yeah it doesn't really scream "Flash"
+Andrei yeah this was a young justice canon
acting was shit wtf u talking about
Acting was solid?, did we watch the same short lmao 🤦
Well done! Love this!!
Also, these actors have a future ahead of them! They both (Wally and Artemis) do an amazing job in this!
It's a great fan film and it's a great job on this video!!!
Just subbed that was amazing please tell me how you did the lighting and I loved artemis costume and kid flash this is now my favourite short film the part I like was when Wally said I wasn't saying your name and once he run to his house before Artemis came
definitely subscribing! good show man!
pause on 16:38 - costume looks sick fam LMAO
lol
lmfao Atleast they tried 😂😂😂😂
Lmao
lmaoooooooo
+reece vollans Hey, better than the one they're using for the CW
This was great!
RIP Wally... He was my favorite hero from Young Justice.
nice episode!
Amazing guys
this was awesome I think u should make the whole young justice serious like this
the lightning bolt was the wrong way but this was soooooo good like you killed it guys fantastic job
I like the young justice vibe going on
+Lumis Entertainment the fan film was GREAT!!! I agree tho the suits were a little odd but I do have some tips that may look a little better. (these are only if wanted and if you are not planning to upgrade the suit) So I would figure out a way to take off Wally's head piece from the neck up so that you can place the goggles as the mask instead of placing the mask on which it smooshes his face LOL. And Artemis' suit was great except what I would do is put like just a mask sort of how like arrow has his in the tv series and I would put her hair in a pony tail to make it more like young justice. So now I am not attempting to be mean I'm just saying my opinion cuz I really wanna see where this fan film will go so far it seems awesome but those are just my pointers and I hope you don't take it the wrong way. I think it benefits your fan film looks so if you like my ideas then try it out and if it doesn't look good then you can go back to ur original design cuz that's cool too.
Amazing Video. Will you be making a Kid Flash: Running West 2?
There are no plans to as of now unfortunately. But we'll see what happens! :)
wtf man I waited forever
but the theme was really cool guys so thanks can't wait to see more but with upgraded suits
bi
15:00 when you call her over to netflix and chill, and all you do is watch netflix and chill...
There were many things good about this. But...the costumes weren't so good but not bad a little bad but not bad acting and audio is great I like the effects 👍🏾
I liked this!! Job well done. The effects were pretty good, too. Will you be making more??
This is actually mad good
amazing
You guys did an amazing job and if there is a part two I can't wait for it!!!!
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVED THIS FAN FILM IT WAS AWESOME
Artemis' suit was lit fam
you guys should've just got a kid flash shirt or sweater and maybe order a custom mask. but other than the costume, it was great.
this is really good acting not even kidding kudos
the second half was pretty bad tho for acting by wally
This was amazing 10000/10
NICEEEEE! i love the costume i like the red and the black
It was amazing!!!!
In joyed the movie please tell me ur making a a Kid flash running west 2 it would be awesome to more young justice members
This is the greatest fan film I have ever seen and where did you get the costumes I need to have one for comic con
I've watched this three times now. I wanted to give it a couple of watches before I commented. I have to say, I really enjoyed this. I'm going to try to be as precise as I can possibly be with my comments, here, but if you need me to elaborate further, please feel free to ask.
I'm going to start off with the stuff I didn't particularly care for, to get that out of the way early.
Amos Fortune didn't really have much of a presence. I thought the actor was great, but he shows up at the very beginning, kills a gangster's(?) kid, and then disappears until Wally comes across him towards the end of the film. I know Dick asked
Wally to keep an eye out for him, but what exactly was Fortune doing that was cause for suspicion?
Not nearly enough Artemis. I know the title is Kid Flash, but she's a very big part of Wally's life, and as he told Dick, the whole reason he's even attempting this whole civilian lifestyle is for her, so seeing more of them together would have been nice.
The Kid Flash suit from the neck up. This is an “Oh, yeah. It's a no budget fan film” thing, but I thought the suit itself was very nice looking, but the head covering just didn't work at all, unfortunately.
The talk with Dick had some mentions to “last year”, which left me a little confused, because I really have no idea what they are alluding to. Is it a comics thing? A show thing? It' not a huge issue, but I was left wondering exactly what all the details were.
And now for some thing that I really enjoyed about this.
I cannot express enough how much I loved that Artemis ended up saving Wally. It was a genuinely surprising moment, and one I really liked because of how sidelined Artemis really had been to that point. The fact she brought up the lying and sneaking out on this mission behind her back makes me realize that if this were longer, a subplot where Artemis thinks
Wally is cheating on her would have worked perfectly.
The scenes with Dick. There was a real connection between the two actors that showed that something happened, but they are still close despite everything. Even Dick's( frankly, well deserved) “What The Hell, Hero?” speech to Wally about not stopping the mugger shows that he still cares about Wally.
I like that it was Artemis that suggested that they go back to hero-ing while still staying in school, together. Over the course of this, they both realize they both still want to do both. I just like it was her that took the initiative.
So, I just wanted to say how much I've enjoyed this film, and would like to see more of them in the future, whether it be a continuation of this story, or something else entirely. I was surprised at how fast the movie went by.
One thing I noticed: The restaurant Wally walked by on his way to meet with Dick had a phone number with a 617 area code. Was this filmed in Boston? I'm actually from that area, though I live in New Hampshire, now. Actually filmed a short
film in Boston at the director's school when he was attending there.
Thanks for the insightful comments, and for watching it so many times! Happy to hear that you enjoyed it. This was indeed filmed in Boston.
Regarding the suit, it unfortunately did not turn out the way we had hoped it would. Later on we might show some of the concept art and designs we had, which envisioned the suit to be a little different. Sadly, transferring those ideas from paper to a physical costume was difficult and where things got messed up. But, lessons learned for the future!
A lot of back story is left out, due to the nature and length of the project, but hypothetically this story would take place between season 1 and 2 of the Young Justice series. Though a lot of details about characters and such are not explained in the film.
+Lumis Entertainment Amusingly I've recently started watching Young Justice for the first time. I don't know much about the Wally West character, but he came off as very likeable, here.
I know I would love to see any concept art that you would release. A film commentary could be neat too, I think.
the casting for this is great (though Wally is a little wooden sometimes) and the outfits are amazing (except Wally's mask. I've never understood his style choice). the effects are ace too. good job
The only thing bad about this great fan film was that the logo and suit for Wally is wromg.
Wrong*
ikr
Daniel ExtremeGamer ikr
It's the stealth mode
The effects were amazing please tell how u make those effects
well done guys!
Awesome
It amazingGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
very nice production value
awesome, With a better suit everything will be perfect
Good job guys
acting is soooooo good. definitely nominate for oscar
12:56 im crying lmaoooooo
Godamnit, that is freaking hilarious but hey they tried
I really enjoyed this film. The thing that I loved the most was the reality parts were they focused on Wally, Dick and Artemis. I also noticed the Young Justice connection that obviously inspired the script. I know that this is a low budget film however I still think you could have done a little better with the costumes and effects. It really affects the quality of the film and to some at first sight it's immediate turn off. I also think you could have improved some of the dialogue more, the talk between Dick and Wally sounded very repetitive. But I liked what you tried to do with this fan film.
Well done
That ring tone killed me
Explain the process of making this effect at 18:29 is it with green screen?
No green screen, but there are plenty of great tutorials on doing a 'time freeze' effect on UA-cam if you're interested!
+Lumis Entertainment not bad i really liked it
+Lumis Entertainment Would you consider siding with ismahawk, and start a series with him? Also how did you do the speed effect?
Well I don't think 'consider' is the right word ha, as we don't even know them and we don't live near each other, but it would be fun!
+Lumis Entertainment how did you do the speed trail?
How long do I hafta wait for Episode 2??
When's part two coming out
The acting is overall amazing
This is why young justice needs a season 3
Christopher Teo And there is
this was good
I agree with everyone that the costume was weird but does the villain comes from the comics?
artemis is great in this omg
But you could run east?
east side. #ny
this flash video is way better than the other one
wow this is awesome! XD
Wow nice video :)
Nice Film
are u going to make more because iv been waiting 2 years plz make another
was that a gimp suit?
Besides the logo being backwards, this film was great.
If only the costume was just a little more accurate
That was a nice fan film, the costumes were very weird though.
why is the lighting bolt on his chest done like reverse flash?
11:18 imagine if he dropped the phone on his nose lol
Nice!
All in all amazing. The acting, plot and mostly everything else was good but the KF costume was very strange, must say the artemis costume looked dead on.
