The Flash Season 2: 10 Questions We're Asking After Family Of Rogues
7. Who's Paying For STAR Labs?
STAR Labs has now been responsible for two disasters in Central City, creating metahumans, almost wiping out the entire population with the singularity, and yet somehow it is still going. How? Aside from the fact you'd imagine there would have been some sort of major inquiry into the lab after at least one of those huge events, all of that technology doesn't come cheap. Then factor in the fact that it's not really doing anything else other than Flash related stuff, and Cisco and Caitlin appear to be back there full-time (still holding out hope for the Cisco and Joe buddy-cop spin-off though), and it makes even less sense. Who is funding all of the tech and the salaries? Also, is Jay Garrick basically just living there now? It seems so, even though he's been on Earth-1 for around six months. You'd think he might've found a place in that time (I'm sure Caitlin would be happy to offer him a place to stay though).
NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far.
A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
