Wally West Will Be New Member Of Legends of Tomorrow
One of the biggest appeals about the CW/DC Comics show Legends of Tomorrow is that it features no true “A-List” heroes, but instead, feature the “B-Listers” coming together to save all of time. And though it had a rocky start, it soon became one of the best shows on the network. Now in Season 03, the series is still on its midseason hiatus, but it’ll soon be the Legends turn to shine again, and soon after they return, they’ll be getting a new member via Kid Flash, aka Wally West.
“We loved working with Keiynan in our series premiere — the episode in which we learned that in between seasons 2 and 3 he had been fighting crime in Central City with Nick Zano’s Nate Heywood. So when his character stepped away from Flash to go on walkabout, after being dumped and feeling somewhat estranged from his family and team, we knew that Wally West would fit in perfectly on Legends,” executive producer Phil Klemmer told Entertainment Weekly.
This is truly a good thing for the character, for while his arrival in The Flash was highly anticipated, the execution severely lacked, to the point where the writers basically wrote him out of the show. But now, via Legends of Tomorrow, he can truly have his time to shine.
He’ll appear in Episode 13, and join the team full-time soon after.
