The Flash on Sky1

Arrow airs on Sky 1 in the UK, and with a crossover confirmed between that and The Flash, it seemed inevitable that The CW series would be joining that show on the same channel. There's no confirmed air date as of yet, but based on past experience, it will probably reach the UK only a week or two later than when it hits the US this October. The above promo poster has also been officially released after originally being spotted on the floor of this year's San Diego Comic-Con. 

After a particle accelerator causes a freak storm, CSI Investigator Barry Allen is struck by lightning and falls into a coma. Months later he awakens with the power of super speed, granting him the ability to move through Central City like an unseen guardian angel. Though initially excited by his newfound powers, Barry is shocked to discover he is not the only “meta-human” who was created in the wake of the accelerator explosion — and not everyone is using their new powers for good. Barry partners with S.T.A.R. Labs and dedicates his life to protect the innocent. For now, only a few close friends and associates know that Barry is literally the fastest man alive, but it won’t be long before the world learns what Barry Allen has become…The Flash.

I like the suit, but Gustin's head or the cowl looks a tad bigger (and distracting).

Noticeable nitpick

Even more nitpicking.

Do you know that sprinters make an effort to keep their palms open and not balled into a fist when they run?





Not really their fault on this one since that's how The Flash has always been drawn in the comics, with his hands crunched tight into fists. It looks better, I suppose, more action looking, than spread palms. Oh well...

Predicted it'd be Sky 1. So is Arrow, it makes sense.

Can I just point out, you never actually mention in this article that The Flash will air on Sky1, you just kind of hint at it.

infact you put this;

"Arrow airs on Sky 1 in the UK, and with a crossover confirmed between that and The Flash, it seemed inevitable that The CW series would be joining that show on the same channel."

Before even saying it was on sky1 so the sentence had 0 context.

All you Brits think you're better than us 'Muricans because you have free health care and better public education and more attractive women.

Well guess what...we're number one in obesity. So eat it!

Because if you don't, we will eat it.

@McGee

Actually I saw on the news yesterday that the ISIS terrorist that beheaded James Foley was a British national. This only means one thing ... we have to go to war with the Brits and wipe them off the map.

We'll grant amnesty to cipher. The rest are screwed.
