He was never Wells on Earth 1.

thats not true, he was wells on earth1 up to thawne killing him and then he became wells through his life leech device. then he pretended to be wells and all the crew thought he was. the only one who noticed a difference was the chick from mercury labs. he may have been thawne the whole time and it came out when nobody was looking, but to us and team flash he was wells until the big reveal.

I'm sorry, you're right, he was Wells on Earth 1 for about 30 seconds.

he had one full scene and then the scene when he was murdered. so more like 5 minutes.

when the wraiths took Zoom at the end he kinda looked like the Black Flash

I thought the same thing. Either it is just an easter egg thing for the comics or maybe they bring him back at some point next season when a speedster is supposed to die

Grant Gustin on Twitter:

S03E01 title = Flashpoint, so yeah they did it.

seems like it got lost after he gave up his speed for Wally then entered the speed force and seemed to come out even faster since he didn't need it to keep up with Zoom.

I thought they shrunk it and hid it under his flash symbol. I do not recall what makes me think that though, so it might be a fever dream if no one else thought the same thing.

I believe you are right. I vaguely remember Harry putting it behind the Flash symbol.

It's official for season three.

Just saw that. "Kid Flash". You'd think they'd wait til the actual show was on to premiere a big character change like someone getting powers (even if we all knew it was coming).

Did they leave the top off his cowl so we could see the afro because his skin wasn't dark enough?

Yeah that's exactly what they did.

DAFUQ? He's pretty much had the same top-less cowl for the last 70 years.

Although they did bring the costume up over his chin and jaw which I really don't like. Looks like they did just take Barry's costume and chop the top off. The ear piece looks wrong too.

It's not terrible ,but definitely could have done better.

The Firestorm suit is the on that really bugs me the most. They didn't even attempt to do the cowl...

As a non comic book reader this is some bullshit. They showed and went out of their way to say he had no powers and now they fucking spoil it. I enjoyed not knowing what was coming.

They spoiled it for comic book readers too. We could only speculate exactly what would happen with the Flashpoint story, we didn't know Wally would end up a speedster this season.
