If today’s news that the voice of villainousZoomhas been cast didn’t give youThe Flashfix you’re looking for, then perhaps this newSeason 2poster featuring Jay Garrick’s iconic helmet will do the trick. Today’s earlier report revealed that the secondSeason 2episode will be calledFlash of Two Worlds, which is the title of an iconic comic book featuring both Barry Allen and Jay Garrick. It’s certainly possible that this episode will be the first time we see Jay Garrick, played byTeddy Sears, but we may see him first in the season premiere,The Man Who Saved Central City, airing Tuesday, October 6.
Earlier this month, The CW released a new poster that featured bothJay GarrickandBarry Allen(Grant Gustin), which was an homage to the classic 1961 comicThe Flash#123, better known asFlash of Two Worlds. Thiscomic bookwas the first to introduce themultiverse, where it was revealed that both Barry and Jay hailed from Earth-1 and Earth-2. It has already been confirmed that The Flash Season 2 will introduce the multiverse, which was briefly teased in theSeason 1finale, when Barry entered the singularity known as the Speed Force.
New cast members coming aboard inSeason 2includeKeiynan Lonsdaleas Wally West,Michael Ironsideplaying Lewis Snart, Shantel VanSanten as Patty Spivot, former WWE SuperstarAdam Copeland, a.k.a.Edgeplaying Atom Smasher,Violett Beaneas Jesse Quick, Demore Barnes as Henry Hewitt andTony Toddvoicing the primary villain Zoom. Executive producerAndrew Kreisbergrevealed earlier today that the show will draw out the mystery of who (or what) is actually inside the Zoom suit, unlike last season, when it was revealed early on that Harrison Wells (Tom Cavanagh) isReverse-Flash.
Also coming aboard this season are two characters who will be introduced inThe Flash, before starring in the midseason spinoffDC’s Legends of Tomorrow.Falk Hentschel’s Hawkman andCasper Crump’s Vandall Savage will pop up in unspecified episodes ofThe FlashbeforeDC’s Legends of Tomorrowdebuts this spring. The CW also released a new trailer that teases Barry Allen’s new blue lightning powers, which will surely be on display during the season premiere, airing Tuesday, October 6 at 8 PM ET on The CW.
You may recall that the The Flash Season 1 finale featured a brief glimpse of this helmet while Barry was in the Speed Force, and all we know about Jay Garrick in the show is that he arrives in Central City to warn Barry and his team of an impending danger that he cannot stop on his own. It’s certainly possible that Jay will be warning Barry about Zoom, but we don’t know for sure. While we wait for more details on this new season ofThe Flash, check out this new poster, to get a closer look at Jay Garrick’s helmet.
