Heatwave is an antagonist in ''The Flash: Quick Element. ''He is a pyromaniac and an enemy of the Flash, as well as being an long-time accomplice of Captain Cold.

Personality
Heatwave is obsessive, unstable, a pyromaniac, hot-headed and sometimes loses focus. He is highly impulsive, combative and somewhat hyperactive as he despises sitting around and doing nothing. He is a man of action who prefers getting things done as opposed to analyzing them and he is a self-admitted thief, who does not care about any rules, unless they are needed for survival. Despite having a lifelong hatred for police officers, he hates snitches even more and encouraged such carefree attitude towards laws and rules in others.

Despite his less than sophisticated demeanor, Heatwave is incredibly philosphocial in the view of the nature of fire itself. He views his burns as revealing truth of who he really is, he had embraced his self-determined truth of who he is: a man who burns the world to reveal its own inner nature as it did to him. In spite of Heatwave's nature, he still has a code of honor.
