10 Justice League Easter Eggs You Might Have Missed

The Flash’s Rogues

Barry Allen wouldn’t classify himself a superhero at the beginning of Justice League, as he admits he’s never done battle before, he’s just pushed some people and run away. However, some clues in the movie hint that he’s just being modest and has actually faced some supervillains in his time.

There’s a lot to pick out in Barry’s hideout, but if you have Superman’s eyes you might have noticed the schematic for a suit upgrade on one of his screens is labelled “Cold Resistance.” This has to be a nod to the Flash’s recurring rogue Captain Cold. Later on, Barry lists his skills, one of which is “gorilla sign language.” Has Barry already encountered his comics foe Gorilla Grodd?

Meanwhile, the character’s backstory and future career are also hinted at. We meet Billy Crudup’s Henry Allen, who Barry believes is wrongfully-imprisoned for his mother’s murder. Fans of The CW’s The Flash will know that he’s right – Reverse-Flash is the real perpetrator. Henry is also keen for his son to use his criminal justice degree to get a good career. By the end of the film, Bruce has pulled some strings to get Barry a job at a crime lab. Which sets the stage for him to become a forensic scientist.
