Airing as Supergirl’s last-minute tag, the crossover moment makes a big leap for John Wesley Shipp’s return to this superhero universe.
He’s not reprising the role of Earth-3’s speedster or merely nodding to his former TV glory, but is instead literally playing Earth-90’s Barry Allen from the 1990 TV series.
“Whoa!” is a completely acceptable response after watching the first actual episodic moment introducing Arrow-verse fans to this year’s giant “Elseworlds” crossover.
