Flash TV Pilot to Screen at Comic-Con

On Saturday, July 26, Warner Bros. will have a massive 3-hour event at Comic-Con International featuring the screenings of both the Gotham and Flash pilot episodes, scenes from Constantine, and cast/crew appearances.

Sadly, this means I won’t be able to attend the event, as I don’t have Saturday tickets. On the plus side, I also don’t have to worry about spending 4 hours waiting in line and getting shut out, so that’s 7 more hours of convention I can actually go to. Now that I think about it, I might be getting a better deal.

Flash TV Quick Hits

  1. The US debut for the first episode of the Flash TV Series is set for October 7. To help get you up to speed (so to speak), CW will be airing the two-part “Arrow” episode introducing Barry Allen the previous week. They also plan encore showings of the first two episodes.
  2. Rumor has it that CW will be screening the pilot at Comic-Con International next month in San Diego. I’ll try to make it to the presentation if it’s on one of the days I’m attending.
  3. The pilot has apparently leaked online. No, I haven’t watched it.

And in digital back-issues, DC is adding two more issues to the backlist: Flash #239 and Flash #240, parts 2-3 of “Fast Money.” Could cashing in on his fame be the way to solve Wally West’s money problems? Probably not, if Spin turns public opinion against him. And what’s Grodd doing in all of this? Tom Peyer, Freddie Williams II.
