Thoughts On Flash Debuting in Arrow; How Does This Affect Booster Gold?

Wow, unexpected news today. We learned that not only will Barry Allen be a supporting character in season two of Arrow, but he will also be getting his own TV series and maybe still a movie. What does this mean for Booster Gold, Amazon and the rest of the DC Universe? Click on to read my thoughts.

Ever since they announced that they were developing a prequel series on Wonder Woman called Amazon, I've been excited. I thought that'd be a great way to introduce the character of Wonder Woman before Justice League without having to do a movie quite yet.

But today they announced that they were putting that on hold (which probably means it's not going to happen) and that they're focusing on a Flash series, spinning-off from Arrow. While I think I speak for the majority of CMB when I say I'd rather have a full-length franchise film, there's no denying that this has potential.

What I'm wondering is what this means for the Booster Gold series that was revealed to be in development a few months ago (I believe for si-fi, but don't quote me on that). I've always wanted the DC TV shows to be in-continuity with the DC films. That doesn't mean I want Green Arrow and Booster Gold in Justice League, but I think it'd be great to have it all taking place in the same universe.

But with Arrow being a success and The Flash becoming a priority, does this mean Booster Gold is still on the agenda? I doubt it, but I hope so. To have three DC shows to keep up with would be, in a word, legit.

Who knows what they'll do. Maybe they're pushing a Flash TV series so they can focus on bigger names like Batman and Superman, or Wonder Woman. God knows they better get Aquaman right. Anyhoo, while it's not what I would do, I'm excited nonetheless. What do you guys think of today's news and Booster Gold? Sound off in the comment section.

Thanks for reading!

P.S. I wrote a fan fic for a Justice League movie before Batman vs. Superman was announced, and of course it'd have to adjust to that movie, but I'd really appreciate it if you read and commented on that one too. Thanks! http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fan_fic/news/?a=82335
