On the heels of last night's promo, The CW has debuted a full batch of promo stills for next week's instalment of The Flash, "The Elongated Knight Rises."

ARROW: New Promo Images For Upcoming "We Fall" Episode Focus On Oliver's Divided Team

We've already had a glimpse of Ralph Dibny in his somewhat embarrassing-looking grey outfit, but these images confirm that the budding hero will be suiting up in a slightly more comic-accurate costume at some point.

Plus, we get a first look at Bill Goldberg's character, as well as Corinne Bohrer - who appeared in the '90s Flash TV show - as the Trickster’s sidekick, Prank.

Check out 20 promo stills and the synopsis for the episode below.  


When a familiar villain returns to terrorize Central City, Ralph (guest star Hartley Sawyer) must rise up to defend the innocent while Barry (Grant Gustin) is detained by his trial. Meanwhile, Barry searches for the strength to keep his optimism alive in the face of his new circumstances. Alexandra La Roche directed the episode written by Sterling Gates & Thomas Pound (#411).Original airdate 1/23/2018.

Hey, is that Trick from the 90s show?
Omegacron
Omegacron - 1/17/2018, 12:13 PM
@FishyZombie - not 'Trick', but 'Prank'. Yes - the actress is the same one. She's the second Prank, the one who was obsessed with Trickster.

@Omegacron - Basically Harley Quinn but before Harley Quinn was a thing.

Original Prank actress is still cute. Go figure. Also, nothing says "tough prison life" like a "No Swearing" sign in the courtyard.

I stopped watching this show a long time ago.
But from the looks of it, it seems like a parody of itself. The costume, set pieces and the actors' over expressive reactions.
The tone shift between the two scenes is something else.
One could easily fit into NCIS and the other into Legends.

Hate this Elongated Man/Plastic Man hybrid. He's Ralph Dibny but they call him Plastic Man and he wears Plastic Man's colors and goggles but has the Elongated Man body suit.

@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - I dont think the GA would know the difference between the Elongated man and Plastic man if you asked, so doing a hybrid of the two is a good solution
GAThrawnIGF
GAThrawnIGF - 1/17/2018, 3:01 PM
@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - The general public are actually much more knowledgeable of Plastic Man than Elongated Man, especially the people who grew up in the 40s and 50s. Besides, you do know the Plastic Man name was a joke, right? Dibny even said no.
TheFox
TheFox - 1/17/2018, 3:51 PM
@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - I'm sure they're going to give him the "Elongated Man" name-- probably even in this EPISODE, given that the title is "The Elongated KNight Rises"-- but you've gotta admit, from a storytelling point of view, that's a tough name to come to organically.

I mean, "Elongated Man"? That is not, and should not be, the first name that comes to mind when you have a guy with stretchy powers. That's, like, the fifth name you come to when you start running out of ideas. At best, it sounds like a dirty joke. So if they're gonna use it, they're gonna have to work up to it... and that's gonna take a bit of creativity.

@BlackIceJoe - Probably didnt want another hero in red, the costume is fine but they could have also gone with this

megabatfan - 1/17/2018, 12:49 PM
@BlackIceJoe - I thought for sure they would have gone with this one... WTH!!! And the material... It could have been a Spider-man type spandex with accents and padding, but the one he has on looks stupid for a man that stretches

@dracula - Yep, I never expected the red costume, but they could have adapted more closely to the grey one (obviously they had to get rid of the white in the costume).

Identity Crisis made me care about Elongated Man. A lot of people don't like that story, but I loved it.

@blackandyellow - that's one of the best books to have come out in the last 20 years. People dodnt like it because of the rapey sue stuff.
