The Flash Season 2: 23 WTF Moments From 'Welcome To Earth-2'

Alternative heroes and villains, Easter eggs aplenty, and unnecessary undressings are the order of the day on Earth-2.

With Welcome to Earth-2, The CW€™s Flash delivered one of its very best episodes to date. Seriously, this is an outing that left jaws agape, smiles across faces, and gave long-time comic book fans a whole host of Easter eggs, nods, winks, and references to warm their inner geek. Plot-wise, this episode saw Barry Allen, Cisco Ramon and Harry Wells head over to Earth-2 in order to rescue Wells€™ daughter Jesse and to hopefully put a stop to uber-rogue Zoom once and for all. Rather than waiting for Zoom to come to them, they decide to take the fight to his world. Unfortunately, all doesn€™t exactly go to plan, and Barry even ends up locked in a cell alongside Jesse by the time the episode comes to a close. With this alternative world, though, we were given different takes on familiar characters as we met up with the likes of Earth-2€™s Iris West, Caitlin Snow, Ronnie Raymond, and even Barry Allen himself. Dotted throughout this latest outing were a whole host of shocking, knowing, and humourous WTF moments.

23. Cisco€™s T-Shirt

Is there a cooler dressed character on television than Cisco Ramon? To certain viewers, no, no they€™re isn€™t. It seems that rarely a week goes by that we don€™t see a super cool, super chic t-shirt adorned on the torso of Carlos Valdes€™ Ramon, and this time he was firmly representing for Lord of the Rings. Cisco seemingly has an endless range of awesome t-shirts, and this Mordor effort was up there with the best of them. Sure, my personal favourite was his €œwhite bear/black bear/let€™s make a panda€ effort, but there was no disputing how brilliant his latest tee was.
