Synopsis:

The JLA want to know who the Flash is. They know that he recently disappeared for a time and resurfaced, and they also know that they used to know his name, but this has been lost to their memories, their computers and everywhere else. And they need to know why. However, Flash is more worried about finding Linda, and is pursued on his fruitless search for her by Superman. Finally realising that he isn't going to find her, he reveals his identity to Superman and the two of them help Keystone to rebuild from the recent super-villain attack, doing so in their civilian identities. Wally then sets out to let the rest of the heroic community know who he is, saving his closest friend, Nightwing, until last.
