 This incarnation of the Flash is also one of the few superpowered characters on "Smallville" who is not a "Meteor Freak", meaning they have not acquired their powers through Kryptonite-related means via one of Smallville's infamous meteor showers.Although commercials for "Run" billed him as "the Flash", he is never called by this name in the episode.Instead, in "Justice", he has been given the codename "Impulse".
