Want the scoop on the second season of The Flash? Executive producer Andrew Kreisberg and the cast sat down with reporters at San Diego Comic-Con and here’s what they had to tell us.
“Barry is going to have a new mentor. His new mentor is going to help him find new ways to use his powers. He’ll mature over the course of this season and he’ll start to feel like the hero that the city is treating him as. When we first come back, he’s in a place where the Flash is getting a lot of acclaim. He’s being treated as a hero, but he doesn’t feel like one because, as we all know, Eddie is the guy that stopped Wells. And that’s weighing very heavily on Barry when we come back. He’s kind of a lone wolf, doesn’t want to work with anybody else. He’s in a dark place when we find him in Season 2 — it’s going to be a long road to getting out of that and being the positive Barry again. I hope we can get there sooner rather than later. The only thing I’m pushing for Season 2 is fun! But we’re definitely dealing with a lot of the weight from the Season 1 finale for the first part of the season.”
