CAPTAIN COLD on THE FLASH

On the day of the series premiere we have gotten our first look at Wentworth Miller as Leonard Snart aka Captain Cold on CW's THE FLASH, and he looks pretty great.


I have to say he looks damn fantastic, though I have some small issues here and there. The coat is terribly plain, and the goggles don't have the cool factor of the classic glasses from the comics. But as this is just the beginning I'll wait and see how it evolves. Word is we'll see Cold's origin, along with the origin of the rest of the Rogues, and the evolution of the character as time goes on. So there is always opportunity for development. I suspect that, while we're getting the badass Cold Gun, we'll likely see Cold and the Rogues become super powered like they are in the New52. Eventually.

Just for reference here's both the classic look from the books and the New52 redesign;

Classic and New52

Can't wait to finally see the show. :-)
