Britne Oldford, a Canadian actress best known for roles on the British teen drama Skins and FX's American Horror Story has been cast as Lashawn Baez on The CW's Flash.  Lashawn Baez is apparently based on the DC Comics character named Shawna Baez, better known as the reluctant villain, Peek-A-Boo; a Flash Rogue with the power of teleportation.  

Oldford will reportedly play the girlfriend to Micah Parker's character, an Iron Heights inmate who convinces his significant other to break him out of prison and use her metahuman powers to pull off one last heist before leaving Central City for good.

The Flash returns on the CW on January 20th at 8PM.  Titled "Revenge of the Rogues".  Peek-A-Boo premiered in The Flash Vol. 2 #180 (2002), which was written by Johns and featured art from Scott Koins.

Teleportation is a good counter to the Flah. Should be an interesting character

Damn she fine. Teleportation is a good counter /antithesis to speed. Can he possibly catch her while she's teleporting? How fast does he need to move....can he predict where she Teleports....this is a good villain. Can speed stop telportation??

She's pretty cute. If she can act, it'll be a good addition to the show.

Who's Peek-A-Boo?

@ComicsBornandBred

In the comics whenever someone tries to touch her she involuntarily teleports a short distance away. Which is why shes formidable against the Flash. Fighting her is pretty much like playing a game of keep away.

Also, found my favorite Walken gif.

I think Season 2 of AHS is very underrated but I would say Season 3 is the best.

The British show she's on (Skins) is alright. Not nearly as good as the Canadian show "Wheels."

Not that it really matters, but @MarkJulian I think you actually switched up the names, it's:
"... has been cast as Shawna Baez on The CW's Flash. Shawna Baez is apparently based on the DC Comics character named Lashawn Baez."

Pas de probleme, ils sont juste bizarre.

Don't think my conjugation is correct...plural form for they escapes me.

MercwithMouth - 1/9/2015, 9:31 AM
Well, nevermind, my conjugation was correct. My high school diploma told me I was fluent in French...lying ass piece of paper.

Changing the name from Shawna to Lashawn. Now that is American.

@summeriscoming

Actually, they are changing the name from LaShawn to Shawna. The comic character's name is LaShawn.

She was in the shitty AMERICAN version of Skins. Not the much better original British version.

Ugh...starting to tire of these lackey-of-the-week episodes...These villains are laughable at best..other than the reverse-flash....PeekABoo? Pied Piper? Heat and Cold Mizer? firestorm has potential but lets see how he looks in an actual costume...not an overcoat with a hood which seems to be the costume of choice for villains in Flash Town...

@DrunkenNukem Did you say "mappleland?" What the heck's a "mapple?" Did you mean Maple? Oh, you're probably from 'murica, that explains it.
