Creation

Turbine was created by The Flash writers Brian Buccellato and Francis Manapul.

Major Story Arcs

In 1944, Roscoe Hynes was flying a prototype airplane into battle against the Axis over Italy when it was pulled in by the Speed Force, trapping him there for decades, which caused him to lose some of his sanity. When the Flash uses his powers, portals appear in the Speed Force and Turbine's attempts at passing through them created vortexes as well as the EMP blast that shut down the two cities. He gained an extensive understanding of the speed force and how it worked, explaining it to the Flash when he was trapped there in hopes that the Flash would help him escape. However, when the Flash refused to take him back to his own time, he grew enraged and attacked him, but the Flash managed to stop him long enough to pull him out of the Speed Force.
