The Flash has cast another dangerous meta-human! Adam Stafford is all set to join the hit CW superhero drama as the DC Comics villain Geomancer in two episodes later this season. Plus, the show is reportedly casting another speedster! Come check it out!
ComicBook has learned that the second season of The Flash has cast Adam Stafford (Peter Pan) as the DC Comics villain Adam Fells a.k.a. Geomancer. The character is being described as "a dangerous meta-human with the unique ability to create earthquakes. Intent on destroying the Flash, Geomancer uses his powers to unleash a string of targeted earthquakes, optimistic that he’ll draw out the Flash for a mano-a-mano fight to see who’s the most powerful metahuman in Central City." Stafford will make his debut as Geomancer in episodes 13 & 14 of the current season, two episodes producer Greg Berlanti has stated are "the two craziest episodes that we've ever done - and probably two of my favorite episodes ever"
Additionally, TV Line reported yesterday that the hit CW superhero drama is currently in the midst of guest-casting another speedster - Eliza Harmon. In the comics, Harmon is a Lex Luthor-created speedster. Her television origin story is yet-to-be seen, but this incarnation is being described as an "exceptionally bright scientist with a split personality a la Jekyll and Hyde." She'll make her debut in episode 16.

Last year, the S.T.A.R. Labs Particle Accelerator exploded, creating a dark matter storm that struck forensic scientist Barry Allen — bestowing him with super-speed and making him the fastest man alive. But Barry wasn’t the only person who was given extraordinary abilities that night. The dark matter also created meta-humans — many of whom have wreaked havoc on the city. With the help of the S.T.A.R Labs team, Caitlin Snow, Cisco Ramon and Dr. Harrison Wells, Barry protects the people of Central City from these powerful new threats as The Flash. Following the defeat of Allen's arch-nemesis Eobard Thawne (aka Reverse Flash), Team Flash must quickly turn their attention to the singularity swirling high above Central City, consuming everything in its path. Armed with the heart of a hero and the ability to move at super speeds, Barry charged into the eye of the singularity, but can he actually save his city from impending doom?
