Whether it be the costume design, the speed streaks from the different speedsters or the actual CGI from the different metahumans’ abilities, the Second Season feels like a show with an increased production budget. The Flash has always excelled with its pure superhero action and thankfully, the second Season delivers another visually pleasing series of action set pieces.

With the inclusion of an alternate Earth, the creative script writing is really cleverly done, with more stand out episodes this time around than before. The episodes are more in-depth this time around though, playing on the character strengths from last year to deliver a season chock full of deeper character motivations and angles.

Much like last year, the overarching plot is woven throughout a more traditional episodic format. With Central City still reeling from past events, rumours of a new super speed villain named Zoom come to the surface and together with a familiar cast, The Flash sets off to find out who Zoom is, what he wants and more importantly, whether he can stop Zoom from his ultimate goal. Picking up right where Season 1 ended, the second Season of Flash resolves the initial conflict before jumping forward six months. The visuals are impressive too and with some good acting all round, The Flash proves it’s not just a one trick pony with another great season of superhero entertainment. With a relatively unchanged cast and some interesting “doppelgängers” from alternate Earths, The Flash boasts a bigger and bolder series with more twists and turns than before.

Following on from a solid first Season, Season 2 of The Flash expands the universe with deeper character arcs and an intriguing overarcing plot about a new speedster and multiple universes.
