Just in time for San Diego Comic-Con, a new batch of rumors from Bleeding Cool has fans dying for answers. The big news for The Flash Season 3 suggests Jay Garrick’s Flash may be crossing over to Supergirl, Arrow, and Legends of Tomorrow in particular. As a longstanding member of the Justice Society of America, it's only right his presence is felt among the newly introduced team of Citizen Steel and Hourman.
In addition to John Wesley Shipp, who plays Jay Garrick as The Flash from Earth-3, two other DC TV characters have also been promoted to series regulars across all four shows: Captain Cold (Wentworth Miller) and Malcolm Merlyn (John Barrowman).
Considering The Flashpoint Paradox is in motion at the start of Season 3, it may be Jay Garrick’s Flash who takes the reins as Central City’s scarlet speedster. Or, he may be aware of what Barry Allen has done, and recruit his JSA/Legends buddies to help fix the timeline.
Wally West was just outed as a speedster in Central City in the Flashpoint timeline, but the name ‘Kid’ Flash doesn’t make sense unless there is an elder Flash present. Set photos captured another Central City speedster sporting a demonic, all-black suit, which we assume means he’s a villain, however his true identity has not been confirmed.
The rumor mill also claims Batwoman and Orcale will join Supergirl in National City. Also, Matt Ryan’s Constantine is being eyed for a solo series next year, but is currently in talks for a role in The Flash , Legends or Arrow.
Bleeding Cool ’s inside scoops have been spot on in the past, so even though these are just rumors for now it is quite possible we’ll see these predictions come to fruition. Stay tuned for more DC TV coverage from iDigitalTimes at San Diego Comic-Con.
The Flash returns Oct. 4.
