72: My Three Dads

The Flash Season 1.

During Arrow season two an intrepid young forensic scientist from Central City showed up to help solve a case and in the process learn the identity of Starling City's masked vigilante. He traveled home only to be struck by lightning and wake up in his own show.

In this episode of The 602 Club host Matthew Rushing is joined by fellow Rogues Bruce Gibson and Norman Lao to talk about The Flash season one. We discuss the quickness of the storytelling, if Arrow helped Flash start so well, the characters brought to life, rogues and villains, father figures, subverting expectations and our ratings.
