My predictions for a Wally West Flash, and the future of the DC Television Universe

My Prediction for Season 2 flash story line includes Futures end influences and a Wally West Flash! Here is how I have come to that conclusion and then some.  In Tuesday night's episode of The Flash during the body snatcher scene Eobard says to Harrison; "In the year twenty twenty (five years from now) you and your wife Tes Morgan successfully launch a particle accelerator that changes the course of history". Eobard accelerated that timeline, to the year 2015 (technically 2014, and they should have had the line read 2019). Five years from now, the DC Comic Universe plot line for Futures End is as follows: "Reeling from a war with Another Earth, leaving the world unprepared for an approaching evil that threatens to destroy the future can a time traveling Batman (beyond)."  Now simply begin to replace batman with "Can a time-traveling Barry Allen, help a massive cast of the DCU’s finest avert the impending apocalypse caused by the changes to the timeline Eobard Thawn the Reverse Flash set in motion after the eventual survival of Barry's mother? That means season two should be getting heavy doses of influence from the Futures End storyline. For the new as-yet-unnamed show, they are casting characters like HawkGirl, so this gives some credibility to a "massive cast" I digress, now since Harrison wells and Tess Morgan will be the cause of the S.T.A.R. labs explosion in 2020, we should see some new superheroes from older cast members, like Cisco becoming Vibe and Mrs. Katlin snow becoming Killer frost. Biggest change of all should be Wally West being struck by lightning. Now Barry Allen should be around and most of the show(s) will somehow revolve around getting Barry back to his timeline. (This plot point will require assistance from some very powerful superheroes and multiple Speedsters) Barry will be playing a Sensei role to Wally in somewhat like a Kid Flash like relationship. So the Grant Gustin Fans should remain at ease. I'd expect Arrow to follow suit for its next season. I wouldn't even be surprised to see The Arrow die and have a funeral at the end of this season only to have the events from the flash overwrite that series to get it in line with the new format. This could also explain Red Skies and a differently dressed flash in Eobard's news paper. Well there you have it, only time will tell but we will have to wait to see what happens. To end on a personal request if anyone from DC is reading this, (I'm looking at you GJ) I'd love to see the new show called Another Earth, it would be a fantastic nod to the Futures End Storyline.

It's honestly astounding what DC has accomplished on the television front. They come up with these fresh and new ideas to make shows that people love. I personally think that Flash is going to create a time rift in the season finale causing Sarah Lance to come back to life, Hawkgirl to come into fruition, and Rip Hunter popping up out of nowhere. I even think CW has a secret card up their sleeve that might be Smallvile's Superman.

All in all I can't wait to see what they do, because they are the best at what they do.

I think a good title for the other show would be 'Justice Society', thats kind of what they're building to.

@Pasto

You think Tom Welling's gonna make a return as Superman? I read something about Welling making a return for season 2 and it said Greg Berlanti said that, but i thought it was just bs

@Pasto @supes123 Surely it wouldn't make sense to crossover the Smallville universe with the Arrow/Flash universe as Smallville already had its own different versions of Oliver Queen, Barry Allen, etc in that. Unless I've misunderstood you guys.

Yeah, that's what i thought that article i read about it was bullshit. But, i don't think it was Barry Allen, i think it was Bart/Impulse. I could be wrong though.

I really hope they leave the past in the past. And as for superman, well, they just killed off Deadshot so he can take his place in the DC Movie universe. It seems like if you die on TV you get reborn in the movies. That will be the probable reality for the near future.

Tom Welling would never return as Superman. He spent 10 years dodging having to wear the costume, and didn't even put it on for a minute in the finale.

I don't see it. If it does happen, color me surprised.

Press the ENTER button sometimes! It's not good to read this way.

And use some more pictures.

And on your idea, I like it.
