Some of you may be looking at Andy Poon's concept art of Ra’s al Ghul (Matt Nable) and thinking to yourself, is that Oded Fehr ("The Mummy") or Liam Neeson ("Batman Begins")? If you had either of those thoughts you'd be correct on both accounts. Poon, or as I like to call him Poontang, illustrated his Ra's al Ghul costume designs before the role was cast. For fun, he decided to incorporate the likeness of each actor based on the rumors linking Fehr and Neeson to the part. It does NOT in anyway mean they were actually considered. Still neat to look at though. Then there is John Gallagher's awesome Captain Cold (Wentworth Miller) costume design, which was not chosen. Boo! Gallagher used elements of the New 52 look for hie Captain Cold design, but producers decided to go in a different direction. The final image below, is not from either CW show. It is an unused design for DC Comics' New 52 Reverse-Flash, whose secret identity is Iris' brother Daniel West.

And that is how Reverse Flash should look in the Flash movie.

Cold looks sick, def prefer the goggles they went with but would like to see him evolve over time into that new 42 esque look!

I wonder if this is a semi spoiler showing the Daniel West concept Art... possibly the shows reverse Flash???

On the original Deviantart description it says "Concept piece for New 52 Reverse Flash. Not used - clearly lol - but still fun to tackle this one as an exercise"

Why they even bother in making concept arts. They never use those great ideas.
That Ra's from the show looks like some random bum.

why is concept art always awesome and nothing like the finished product?

Ra's actually looks like himself in concept art. Too bad the show went in a shit direction and stripped him down to just a dude with some aftershave holding a sword.

Dammit Capt. Cild And RF look awesome. Should've used those at least for Cold

Oded Fehr would have worked perfectly fOr Ra's al Ghul and used Matt Nable as Ted Grant Wild Cat they missed the mark on this one

I agree with jondoe297. Matt Nable would have been a perfect WildCat Ted Grant. See him in Riddick. He's a baddass.

Captain Cold looks cool, but Ra’s, what did they do to you? His face looks like a mask

I'm sorry, but Daniel West sucks…
CombatWombat
CombatWombat - 12/19/2014, 9:21 AM
I mean, that art is awesome. And if he was a revamped version of Speed Demon maybe I'd like him better

But to me he's no Reverse-Flash

I don't get the appeal of the sleeveless Cap Cold. It looks stupid. Hopefully that doesn't happen on the show. No power for him, please. Just stick to the gun, thank you.

@fatcobra "I don't get the appeal of the sleeveless Cap Cold."

Same. Unless Wentworth is yoked, put the pipes away.

From the neck down, he looks like a hipster SubZero. This version of Captain Cold is smart and calculated, he wouldn't go sleeveless.

He can look cool bundled up, GI Joe did it.

I don't think that's concept art. That looks like fan art

That looks like the Black Flash not the Reverse Flash
