The Flash Season 3: 10 Big Questions We're Asking After 'Paradox'

4. How Much More Jay Garrick Will We See?

After Season 2 ended with Henry Allen dying and Jay Garrick going home to Earth-3, there may not have been much cause for John Wesley Shipp to appear on The Flash this year.

Thankfully, between Flashpoint and this episode, they've found ways of bringing him back into the fold, which is great for the chemistry he shares with Grant Gustin.

Here, he turns up as Jay Garrick to give Barry a fatherly talk on the consequences of time travel. It's exactly as Jay should be, and no surprise that Shipp nails playing a version of the Flash.

How much more will we get to see of him though? It's unlikely he'll be a regular presence, since he's on a different Earth, but it'd be great to have him recurring throughout the season, and getting to see him use his speed.
