So it was announced today that The CW is planning a series for the Flash, and that it would be spun-off from Arrow. As excited as I am for the new series, it's disappointing the CW is tying it to Arrow. He doesn't fit here. Arrow created a universe where superpowers don't exist, and one that's defined by a semi-realism and darker tone (a clear influence from Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy). A guy in red tights with little lightning bolts on the side of his head who can run super fast has no place in this show.
