When it comes to DC comic conversions, The CW is the best place to look. A host of DC properties have already made the jump to live-action series thanks in large part to this network. One of the first DC series to make the jump to television was “The Flash”, and it’s about to make a comeback for its eighth season. You can watch it with a Subscription to YouTube TV.

About “The Flash”

Over the years, “The Flash” has pitted Barry Allen and his band of friends against a whole range of disasters. Most of the time they come out of the other side with some wide-smiled success. That’s the nature of being a superhero.

This time around, though, we’ll be looking at a few changes, perhaps the biggest of which is the color of Barry’s boots. Now, we’ll get a look at Barry Allen in the iconic gold boots, a development that many on set have been looking forward to for some time. It’s not just about fashion changes, though; an old familiar face will be making his way back to “The Flash” for season 8. Brandon Routh is set to return as Ray Palmer, otherwise known as “The Atom”.

The Atom shows up in the nick of time, too, as this season we will see the Flash pitted against a massive, existential alien threat. In fact, The Atom isn’t the only one who will be making a comeback to help Flash pull Earth’s collective bacon from the fire. Batwoman is set to make an appearance, as is Black Lightning, Sentinel, Green Arrow, and even Ryan Choi. That’s a lot of firepower, and it’ll be necessary, too. With both Eobard Thawne and Damian Darhk backing up the side of evil, it’s going to take a lot to get the world safely to the other side of this one.
