Comic Book Resources bring word from the San Diego Comic-Con that original Flash Jay Garrick is indeed set to make an appearance in season two of The Flash. Geoff Johns confirmed that it will happen during the DC Page To Screen panel (there were sadly no comments about reports that he's writing a solo Batman movie with Ben Affleck), telling those in attendence that the helmet showing up in The Flash was much more than just an Easter Egg. In fact, he's coming to the show! 

"That's not an Easter egg, that's a story point," Johns said of its appearance. "We're going to see Jay." That's obviously huge news and something many fans suspected would happen in season two of The CW series. What kind of role he's going to play is a mystery at this point, but that helmet showing up definitely seems to be an indication that Jay Garrick will have his speed powers when we meet him (presumably from another timeline or dimension). What do you guys think?

They should make his suit just like the comic. Idc if it looks corny because he's from the golden age so his costume would fit the times. Just like how Watchmen did it.

All that running he did in Parks and Rec would pay off.

They should get John Wesley Shipp to play Jay Garrick. He's from an alternate universe where he was born to parents of the nae Garrick and he was named Jay. In his universe, he's been Flash since the 90s.
