You can also see a one-page comic preview for the episode at The CW’s official Tumblr site, and it features the escape of someone we met in the last episode.

In other news, Comicbook.com is reporting that actor Vito D’Ambrosio has been cast to reprise his role as Tony Bellows in the current Flash series. Bellows was a police officer in the 1990s Flash series, but will be the mayor of Central City in the modern show.

Anyone looking forward to Barry’s new love interest?
