Tracie Mauk is a cartoonist/actress/cubicle drone living in Omaha, Nebraska. Her work has appeared in publications such as Wildguard: Insider, Golly! Catching Hell, Matinee Eclectica, and the prestigious and long dead Nebraska Quarterhorse Magazine. She can also be found online via DeviantArt, Tumblr, and as co-creator of the webcomic FIGHT! with writer Kevin Church.Tracie says: “Impulse is one of my all-time favorite characters and I felt a lot of temptation to put Bart Allen back in the role, for this piece, but ever since Wally West’s daughter, Iris, pronounced herself the new Impulse in Flash: Rebirth, I’ve really liked the idea of a young girl with her dad’s Speed Force connection who happens to have a twin brother who got cut out of the whole superpower deal and has to stay at home with Mom, while Irey and Wally go on patrol together. That seemed like it would create some fun conflict for the characters with Irey having to deal with Jai’s jealousy and frustration and it throws a very young, female superhero in the mix, which I totally get behind. It’s a shame that was never really explored further.”Impulse and Iris West were created by Mark Waid, Mike Wieringo, Alex Ross and Ethan van Sciver. From DC Fifty-Too.
