‘The Flash’ sizzle reel goes ALL IN on bringing absurd comic book villains to TV

If you want a sneak peek at what”s coming up for “The Flash,” you”re in luck. Warner Bros. just released the sizzle reel that was shown to WonderCon fans last weekend. Two things to take away: “The Flash” writers love a modified movie quote and they aren”t afraid of dipping into the Silver Age pool and pulling out the most absurd villains in Barry Allen”s gallery of rogues.

The video was the first look at featured guest star Emily Kinney (The Walking Dead), playing a gender-bent Bug-Eyed Bandit, a quick look at Gorilla Grodd (Simon Burnett). With villains such at The Mist, Weather Wizard, and Rainbow Raider, it looks like “The Flash” is sticking to their guns when it comes to mixing superhero action with not taking themselves too seriously.
