One reason to be excited about "The Flash" season 2 release date are the new speedsters.
Earlier reports say the new season of the CW superhero series will see the arrival of Jay Garrick, Wally West, and Jesse Quick.
Here is another reason why "The Flash" season 2 release date should come now. New villains might be unleashed as the season goes along but Barry Allen could get the reinforcement he needs.
What's interesting about is that the support he is going to get are basically the same with the villains. The word for the reinforcement is - doppelgangers.
DC has introduced doppelgangers for its heroes and villains in "Flashpoint" but with completely different personality. Think the Flash and Reverse Flash. For the seconds season, "The Flash" might introduce the counterparts of Captain Cold, Heatwave, Firestorm and other characters.
"What's great about the introduction of Earth-Two is it opens up the possibility of seeing doppelgangers of our favorite characters. One I'm dying to see is Citizen Cold, the hero version of Captain Cold, who was featured in the Flashpoint comic arc. When I asked EP Andrew Kreisberg about it last month, he said it was still TBD," Entertainment Weekly's Natalie Abrams wrote when a fan asked for a "The Flash" season 2 spoiler.
She then followed it up with a quote straight from Kreisberg's mouth.
"There are some things that we're planning on, there are some things we're excited we have an idea for," he said.
"We found in breaking this season, it's getting crazier the more we talk about it. We were afraid to really dive in in the beginning, and the more that the stories really help sell the idea of Earth-Two, in the same way that we sold the idea of time travel last year, we really feel like we can start toying with some of the more whacked out possibilities of having a parallel world and dopplegangers."
How awesome it would be see other new characters that mirrors the ones that already appeared?
"The Flash" Season 2 release date is Oct. 6.
