SDCC '14: Two Major DC Comics Villains Confirmed To Appear In Season One Of THE FLASH
Both of these very well-known members of Barry Allen's rogues gallery were teased in the pilot episode, and it was confirmed at a panel for The CW series at this weekend's San Diego Comic-Con that we'll see them both in the first season! Who are they? Read on for details...
Superhero Hype reports that The Flash producers Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg dropped some major announcements in regards to a few villains who will be making an appearance during season one at this past Saturday's Comic-Con panel for the series. First of all, they confirmed that Weather Wizard (who plays a major role in the pilot) will return at some point, especially as Captain Cold - the next member of The Rogues to be introduced - is on the way and looking to form that classic team of baddies. Far more exciting though is the news that Gorilla Grodd will also make an appearance this year. In the leaked pilot [SPOILER ALERT] we saw an empty cage in STAR Labs that he had escaped from, and seeing them bring the villain to life should be very interesting. That's not all though as they also revealed that Reverse-Flash will be making a physical appearance too!
