The Flash Season 2: 10 Problems Nobody Wants To Admit

8. Jay Garrick Is Really Disappointing

During the first season finale, fans everywhere collectively lost it when Jay Garrick's helmet came flying out of the rip in time. With Eobard's quip saying it was his signal to leave, it was assumed he knew who Jay was and was ready to high tail it out of there before he had to deal with a speedster well beyond his ability. At the start of season two however, we've found that Jay isn't anywhere near the fabled hero he should be. Outside of putting on his hero costume and standing in the way of danger once, he really hasn't done anything heroic. In fact, his character has done the opposite time and time again, refusing to help Barry take on villains, attacking people from Earth-2 who arrived to help and just being an overall whiner every chance he gets. We get that he lost his powers, but that shouldn't stop a veteran Flash from doing the whole hero thing. Everyone wants Jay to get his powers back, but at this rate will anyone even like him when he does have his speed?
