The FLASH TV SERIES

[Osiris-Rex]

You know what would greatly rectify this? Have TV Ollie cook up a pot of scorch-your-mouth chili and inflict it upon the ARROW, FLASH, LEGENDS OF TOMORROW, and SUPERGIRL casts.

With Supergirl sitting there wondering why everyone else is making such odd, pained looking faces.

Looks like Barry will be sporting the future Flash suit next season.

Well there was an overwhelming postive reaction to emo barrys costume so makes sense. Its looks more flash like

I guess that this isn't really a new suit, since we've already seen it. If they went to that expense, it's not likely they wouldn't use it. Was there a different costume in 2024?

Also, I doubt that they made a flashy new Flash costume for fake future Barry, and then not let actual Barry use it. Those things cost money.

It's the closest thing we've seen on the show to the comics book costume. All it needs are yellow boots.

How did they manage to get the boot color wrong? Yellow boots are iconic for Flash.

By looking at the above image, and then decide that they would rather not be mocked by almost their entire audience for having yellow boots, even if the tiny comicbook Flash fandom would go nuts over it.

I think if they actually tried to incorporate the yellow boots it would probably look better then the Halloween costumes the Big Bang Theory cast is sporting there.

They'd be probably more brownish golden boots (which I think would still look not terribly good), and fans would give them a hard time for making it too dark.

Hartley Sawyer (Saving The Human Race, SPiN) will be playing Ralph Dibny/The Elongated Man.

It seems this small-screen take on Ralph Dibny will be private investigator, with "skills that rival those of Batman. Upon discovering he has the power to stretch his body to any shape or form, Dibny uses his new abilities to help Team Flash solve one of Central City’s greatest mysteries."

They'd be probably more brownish golden boots (which I think would still look not terribly good), and fans would give them a hard time for making it too dark.

I think it would just depend on how they adapted them. I don't think it would all be that difficult to make them a seamless part of the design, but that's just me.

Socially almost all Comicbook charatcers are Liberal. As far as his party leanings iono much about current ollie but classic Ollie was pretty much a Demacratic-Socialist. But somehow i doubt he can be a fullblown Libertarian. I mean i dont see Ollie saying "Get rid of wellfare and Social security" but ive havent read anything with him in it in a long time. Or maybe you meant like a Beneign Libertarian. Alot of Libertarians are very liberal on social issues so there is that.

Hal Jordan, the Question, Wally West, and Hawkman are pretty well-known conservatives. Zatanna and the Atom also probably count. Green Arrow is the furthest left-wing you can find in comics as he reaches hippie levels. Which is ironic because he was super angry when his sidekick took drugs. Rorschach and Judge Dredd are probably the biggest conservatives.

Politics in comics, like in real life, are often complicated and depend on the person. Hawkman is a super conservative but a giant environmentalist. While Barry Allen and Wonder Woman are mostly liberal, they support the death penalty like Wally West. Daredevil is a devout catholic and never kills but regularly dates actual killers.

What's conservative about Zatanna? The whole mind-wiping thing?

What's conservative about Zatanna? The whole mind-wiping thing?

That's the biggest offender. Now, Hal Jordan is a conservative but was against mind-altering Dr. Light, but Barry Allen voted yes. So there is no easy answers. Someone like Captain America may typically be viewed as a traditional conservative, but the writers and character are normally more neutral and depends on the issue. However, Ultimate Captain America is a gigantic right-wing character. What upsets me about Arrowverse Green Arrow is that we're not really getting the Green Arrow from the comic books, we're getting Green Arrow "Batman". The fact the League of Assassins are major villains showed that.

Also, I'm pretty bummed how they've chosen Elongated Man over Plastic Man. O'Brien is much more complex as a character.

Hartley Sawyer (Saving The Human Race, SPiN) will be playing Ralph Diby/The Elongated Man.

Looks like Carmine Infantino drew him. That's the highest praise I can give. And I'm keeping my fingers crossed it will all work out.
