DC TV Roundup: White Martians Cause Trouble, Kid Flash Comes Into His Own

1) My Plague

While Clive Yorkin – a villain who can decompose anything with but a simple touch – was certainly one of the most dangerous threats the S.T.A.R. Labs crew have faced to date, the Barry Allen-Wally West dynamic is what stole the show this week, at least in my opinion.

Although Wally has been running around in his Kid Flash costume for several weeks, I felt “Untouchable” was when he truly came into his own. Not only is he showing he has what it takes to be a hero, but his handling of his powers is also coming along thanks to the tutelage from his mentor.

Speaking of which, I like how their relationship is being fleshed out more than Oliver Queen and Roy Harper’s was over on Arrow. In my view, that never had the chance to be as fully explored as it should have before Colton Haynes departed the show. And, from what we’ve seen so far, The Flash will succeed in that area.
