Cast CW Flash series

[ozcollector1992]

when did CW approve a Flash series? Man, I am really getting behind the 8 ball. Only makes sense that if ABC/Disney will be taking advantage of the fact that they own a comic book company that WB would follow suit with new series. It's a shame that it took them this long. Birds Of Prey was great and the WB just drop the ball back then. They could have teamed it up with Smallville on the same night. Guess WB wasn't that smart.

He is being introduced in the 8th episode of Arrow and then 2 more episodes. after this they are going to spin him off into his own show. they are starting with his backstory first

[Operation:Mego]

Yeah, I know you're just busting my spoiler-skiddish chops!

I think you'll really enjoy The 90s Flash. I recently got the soundtrack CD that came out a few years ago, and watched the Trickster episodes again. Great stuff!

Chris

Great, along with buying the complete DVD series I now have to buy the soundtrack! You're bleeding me dry here.

I liked the suit, but I felt it was unnecessary. Shipp was built very well (better than many artists drew Barry, honestly) and would have looked the part in just spandex. The suit cost a lot of money to develop and maintain, and increased the show's already high budget. Toward the end of the season, it was starting to look a bit rough. You can see where they patched it up in several episodes.

Also, if you notice, in the pilot, the suit was a brighter, more vibrant red. I preferred that version.

All in all, the folks at WB wanted to emulate the then-recently successful Burton Batman film as much as possible, hence the rubber-like suit.

I understand what you're saying Chris, but they did explain why he wore the suit. It was supposedly a experimental Russian deep sea diving suit, that could with stand all sorts of pressure or friction. Remember his clothes got ripped every time he ran around. When he ran around the track the suit held up well. Spandex would in reality rip right off him at those high speeds. You best believe that when they put him in the movies or in the TV show wearing the suit,it won't be spandex. It won't be as big as the tv show one, but it will most likely have that rubber scuba look.........

[Earth 2 Chris]

Oh yeah, I remember that. But I think they just came up with that to explain the need for the big suit.

I'm thinking new Flash will get a MOS type textured suit.

Of course they did....lol but I dug it anyway...It was very Batmanish lol YUP textured suit no need to bulk it, the actor most likely will be built......agree

I like the silly comic book explanation that Flash has a protective aura around him, lol.

While there are some sprinters who are bulky - Herschel Walker still owns some SEC track records - I think Flash would have a more slender build than Superman or Batman or Aquaman.

I like the bit that Mike Baron added to Flash about him needing to eat mass quantities of food to replenish his energy. With that in mind, I would think Flash would be like distance runners runners whose bodies actually eat away at their muscle mass since there is so little fat to draw from.

If I were costuming Flash, I'd have the costume made out the Lycra (thick spandex) that most sprinters wear with a helmet-like mask similar the Batman Dark Knight Returns mask.

[Earth 2 Chris]

What's Brue doing? He's perfect for it, and he's got the suit!

I actually liked that, It was used in the TV show thought it was funny seeing him scarf down food....to replenish his body......

[madmarva]

I renounce any thought I ever had about a Flash helmet,lol.

That costume was Badarse!!! I loved it!! The suit was a latex muscle with red flocking so it would look better when shot at night

I'd like to see Flash a little leaner...but yes...it does look baddarse.
