I have ideas for all of them. Daniel West? Here. This might help:

Daniel "Danny" West first appears in Flash #23 (of the New 52). He is Iris West's brother. Having received his powers from a combination of a Rogues attack and an incident in which the Speed Force granted powers to individuals, he wants to help Barry Allen. Since Daniel broke his father's back (making him a paraplegic and alienating Iris), he wants to travel back in time to kill his father before the incident—altering the timeline and regaining Iris' affection. West was defeated and stripped of his powers.

Regaining his powers, he joined the Suicide Squad. Danny was killed while saving children from a time bomb, when the bomb exploded after West threw it into the ocean (creating a vortex which killed him). In DC Rebirth, he happened to be Kid Flash's biological father.
