One of The Flash TV series’ mysteries is Barry Allen’s benefactor at S.T.A.R. Laboratories, Harrison Wells. He’s got secret abilities, secret knowledge, a secret agenda, and only the vaguest of backstories, and if he’s not actually a time traveler, he at least has access to future knowledge.
We ran a poll over the last week asking readers which secret identity they thought was most likely. Here are the results.

The CW has finally released the trailer for next week’s Flash episode of the crossover, titled “Flash Vs Arrow”. The episode will air December 2nd, with the Arrow half of the crossover airing December 3rd. You can find the synopses for the episodes here.

A graduate student at Hudson University, he was part of Martin Stein’s research team on the F.I.R.E.S.T.O.R.M. project. In the DC comics, Jason takes over the Firestorm matrix after Ronnie Raymond’s death.
