The Flash Appears on Arrow TV Series!

The Flash will be appearing as a guest on the CW Arrow TV series.  Barry Allen will be appearing in 3 episodes with the 3rd one being a backdoor pilot into the new Flash TV series being created by two of the three Arrow TV series creators, Andrew Kreisberg and Greg Berlanti and DC Comics superstar writer, Geoff Johns.  No official announcement has been made as to when the new Flash tv series will begin. Johns also wrote two upcoming episodes of Arrow for season two. These would episode 8 and 9 which most likely be the episodes the Scarlet Speedster from Central City will appear in.

This may not be the live action appearance that comic book fans have been looking forward to but it will have to do for now. Marc Guggenheim stated that he still plans on making a Flash movie and is aiming at a release date sometime in 2016.

Comic Review: Flash Rebirth

DC Comics Flash Rebirth

After being presumed dead for almost 25 years, Barry Allen, the Silver Age Flash, has returned to the DC Universe. This mini-series is written by Geoff Johns (JSA, Green Lantern Rebirth) and artwork is done by Ethan Van Sciver (Green Lantern Rebirth, New X-men).

Barry Allen was killed in the original DC “Crisis” story, Crisis on Infinite Earths, while trying to stop the Anti-monitor. There was much speculation on how Barry returned during the later parts of Final Crisis. Now that he’s back, he has to deal with all that has happened during his absent as well as the people that loved and respected him.

Again, Geoff Johns has not disappointed. I loved the story and it is also a great lead in to Blackest Night and as well Flashpoint. Ethan Van Sciver artwork is well done just like his previous DC titles.
