Johnny Quick (Johnny Chambers)
Johnny Quick's secret identity was Johnny Chambers, a newsreel photographer. He invoked his power by reciting a mathematical formula ("3X2(9YZ)4A").
He was a prominent member of The All-Star Squadron as well as husband to Liberty Belle. His daughter, Jesse Chambers, assumed his speed mantra and became Jesse Quick and served a short while with the Titans.
After the war he periodically was active as a superhero, having encountered Savitar.
He ultimately entered the Speed Force, saving his daughter from Lady Flash - then called Lady Savitar.
Later, he was "seemingly" reanimated during the 2009-10 DC comics "Blackest Night" story arc for a short time, but after his daughter, Jesse Quick, realized that the man in front of her was just an evil mockery of his former self and that his resurrection was a false one, he was forcibly laid to rest again.

Yes, his white-on-white shirt and tie were luminous.
