After making his debut on the scarlet speedster’s second season of the hit CW series as Wally West, fans have been counting the days leading down to actor Keiynan Lonsdale dawning his own Flash costume. Today, CW and DC Entertainment have unveiled a first look at the suited and booted Lonsdale as Kid Flash! The images can be viewed below.

Recently, it was learned that The Flash third season will be titled “Flashpoint,” based (in the plot’s inciting incident at least) on the staple DC Comics event sharing the same name. Flashpoint served as the penultimate comic run before DC’s New 52 launch back in 2011. The second season of The Flash shares common ground with the source material, in that it left us with a bereft Barry going back in time to do what he couldn’t before: save his mother from dying at the hands of The Reverse Flash.

The Flashpoint comic presented a dark, world-bending tale about the consequences of Allen’s choice, with fundamental changes to the DCU including Captain Cold being the hero of Central City, the Justice League not existing, Wonder Woman’s Amazonians and Aquaman’s Atlanteans being engaged in all out war, Bruce Wayne being the one who died in the alley and not his parents inspiring his father to become Batman (and his mother The Joker), and Superman being kept in an underground base for years after being found by the military; among others.

It is currently unknown which elements of the comic will be used in the much altered live-action series, but it can be expected that The Flash will follow a similar arc.

The Flash stars Grant Gustin as Barry Allen/The Flash, Candice Patton as Iris West, Danielle Panabaker as Caitlin Snow, Carlos Valdes as Cisco Ramo, Tom Cavanagh as Dr. Harrison Wells and Jesse L. Martin as Detective Joe West. Season 2 of the series also introduced Keiynan Lonsdale as Wally West and the Earth-2 version of The Flash as played by John Wesley Shipp (who also played Barry’s father, Henry Allen).

The Flash season 3 premiere is already set to debut on The CW on Tuesday, October 4 at 8 PM ET. Until our favorite speedster returns, and as always, stay plugged in to SEV for more Comic Nook News as it develops.

Supergirl will be joining the troupe of other DC related series, Arrow, The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow.

Supergirl stars Melissa Benoist as the title character, as well as her mild mannered human identity, Kara Danvers. Also starring; Mehcad Brooks as James Olsen, Laura Benanti as Alura Zor-El, Calista Flockhart as Cat Grant, Chyler Leigh as Alexandra “Alex” Danvers, Jeremy Jordan as Winslow “Winn” Schott, Jenna Dewan Tatum as Lucy Lane (sister of Lois), David Harewood as Hank Henshaw, Peter Facinelli as Maxwell Lord, with Dean Cain and Helen Slater as Kara’s adoptive parents, Jeremiah and Eliza Danvers.

Earlier this year, The Flash has a run-in with Supergirl the crossover episode “World’s Finest” on CBS, wherein we learned that the world of Supergirl takes place on parallel earth to the ‘Flaro of Tomorrow’ universe. Seeing how this is altered to better fit the CW’s breadth and scope for their DC properties will be an interesting (if at times confusing) feat.

Supergirl previously aired Mondays on its former home at CBS. Her season 2 timeslot has not yet been revealed, but stay plugged in to SEV for more Comic Nook News as it develops.
