The Flash: Ranking Every Character From Worst To Best

14. Jay Garrick

Flash Flashpoint

Earth-3's Crimson Comet, Jay Garrick's years of experience as a speedster often results in Team Flash turning to him for guidance and expertise - something that he always willing to offer them.

Not only has he educated Barry Allen on the dangers of timeline-meddling, he also assisted him and Jesse in their attempt to stop a nuclear bomb from wiping out Central City, warning them not to throw it into the Speed Force.

Originally designed as another means of keeping the incomparable John Wesley Shipp on the show (following the death of his original character), Garrick is undoubtedly the ultimate tribute to TV's original Flash - and one that doesn't appear often enough.

You can simply never have enough Jay Garrick.
