So I have seen the first 2 episodes. I have some issues and concerns but then I was never much a Flash (or DC for that matter) reader.

But the show looks good and I will keep watching!

So here I go with some thoughts and spoilers on the first 2 shows:

The first episode: was a good start. It was a little rushed... I would have liked more on the getting use to his powers and less of the bad guy. The bad guy was a bit of a waste too. And there is little logic to him robing banks. It seems he could get rich in less violent and less notable ways.

As for Thawne... well that is going to be a fun character to watch.

The ending was not all that shocking or surprising. I suspected he was not all that he was presented to be.

Ep 2: The Fastest Man Alive:

a little more of him learning his powers and his limits. That was cool. But maybe a little under played. The story was solid for a 2nd ep. They are still setting up things

Now I have some nerdist complaints! So the Danton Black guy: so he can do that clone thing. But where do all the clothes come from and are they all identical? Seems that if the boots were identical they would realize that by very basic forensic study... (Easily fixed by assuming it was a manufacturing defect.) But again where do the clothes come from? And why did no one mention it at least in the LAB. (the one in the lab should have had a STAR Lab shirt and sweats or something... with a quick like "why is he wearing that? with I guess when Black does it he also provides a copy of his cloths")

Last: what happened to all the left overs? That would be a hard thing to explain. Was there any mention that they vanished or whatever? (Another easy fix with just having a line "at least the copies vanished when they are dead)

I like the show, beats Gotham hands down, but the costume looks like something a fanboy would make and wear to a cosplay event.

Good show (but Gotham is better) though don't care for the fact that the same bolt of lightining storm also created all those meta humans (they did that on Smallville already). Also don't know why his hood keeps coming off? Seems like Hollywood just can't stand when a super hero whose face is covered (Captain America, Spiderman) dam they show is face when he's Barry Allen. Hate to agree with lazycrockett but the suit could be better. I liked the 80's/90's flash out fit (who plays the dad in the CW's version)

I'm calling it a tie between you guys. So, now on to really important things.

With the exception of The Batman's new costume (and by "new", I mean starting with the Michael Keaton "Batman" movie), ALL these new uniforms are HORRID. The Flash's uniform is supposed to be bright red with a bright yellow lightning bolt.

And don't even get me started on the new, muted Superman costume. Whoever designed that should be banned from the comic book world forever.

It usually does

it is way easier to draw a cool looking body suit than to make one...

I hear he will fight an new super villian soon... Adobe Man!

I think I read somewhere his costume will change to what we see in the comics at some point.

I think they are trying to have the 52 look
