Entertainment Weekly has some new snippets of information about upcoming episodes of The Flash series. Spoilers behind the jump!
Flash #51 Variant Cover by John Romita, Jr.
DC has revealed its variant cover theme for April 2016: the DCU drawn by John Romita, Jr. While he’s done Superman and Batman recently, the legendary artist is best known for his work at Marvel, so bringing him over to DC for a whole month of covers is an event in itself!
Flash also appears on the Justice League and JLA covers, and you can see all of them at the linked gallery on DC’s blog.
“Fast Lane” Official Synopsis
The CW has released the official synopsis for the third episode of 2016, titled “Fast Lane”. It will air on February 2nd. Spoilers behind the jump!
Flash TV News Tidbits
It was announced the other day that Kevin Smith (he of Clerks fame and more) will be directing an episode of The Flash in May. That should definitely be interesting; Smith has of course written for DC Comics before and is well known to be a major comics fan. No word yet on what episode he’ll be helming.
More behind the jump, including some moderate spoilers for upcoming episodes.
