Either way, part of the reason they gave him powers is because for years people complained about some idiot with a cold gun being a threat to the Flash pushing their suspension of disbelief.

And yet they had no problems when Batman did it.

Of course, don't you know anything about ALCHEMY?!- Twin clones of Ivan the Great

So, when he can shoot cold out of a metal gun it's ridiculous, but when he can shoot cold out of his hand everything is a-ok?

The last hurrah? Nah, I'd do it again.

[up]Kind of, yeah. One purports to be normal, the other is explicitly extraordinary.

And Freeze only gets a pass because of his appearance in BTAS.

[up] But how does having that power naturally make him more effective at fighting the Flash?

The last hurrah? Nah, I'd do it again.

Though I liked the pluckiness of so many of Flash's rogues being Badass Normal, the coolest thing about Cold is that he's the boss of the most official (or not necessarily most successful) supervillain worker's union in the verse, anyway.

Though I'll admit I think he's a lot more badass when he doesn't have powers, but that's just me.

Let us hope the inevitable Justice League Of America / The Brave And The Bold allusion will be less on the nose than Smallville's.tongue

[up][up][up][up] It really doesn't make much sense at all. The problem Captain Cold has isn't that he's using a cold gun, its that he's a guy without superspeed fighting someone with. All the natural power in the world won't change that Flash goes first, goes more often, and oh, Captain Cold is as hard to hit as an immobile statue.

wild mass guess The new Captain Cold will be able to do tangentially ice related things with his powers and will sing "Let it go".

Felicity will appear in Episode 4 which is now officially titled "Going Rogue."

“It’s an episode where Barry’s beginning to question his teammates, and Felicity coming along is not just to reconnect with him; it actually serves a grander purpose, which is that Felicity is somebody who knows how difficult it is to have teammates who are fighting crime. So, she’s there to offer some sage advice, both to Barry and to Caitlin, Cisco, and Wells. So we’re really excited.”

The Suit will evolve overtime.

At the Television Critics Summer press tour, it was said by executive producer Greg Berlanti that the team working on The Flash costume is "evolving the suit over time" with it stated to "become more vibrant and red" as the series progresses.

TV Guide has a special prequel comic by Geoff Johns and Scott Kollins. The last page shows a shot of the Rogues shadowed. Any takers on who we've got?

Is it a Prequel comic or is it Flash Season Zero which takes place between Episode 1 and Episode 2 of the Flash.

Well, the guy in the last panel is Captain Cold obviously, since he's addressed as Snart.

[up][up]Oh, good call. Also I assume this means Cold already has powers by the time we meet him, since he's already wearing his hood and it looks like his breath is cold.

Andrew Kreisberg talks about the Crossover between Arrow and The Flash during Episode 8 of both shows.

...both Episode 8 of Arrow and The Flash will be a two-part cross-over. Not to toot our own horns, but I think we’ve designed it in a way that, if you’re not watching The Flash, you can just enjoy it from the Arrow perspective, where these crazy Flash people show up for an episode, and vice versa. We don’t want to be brazen and assume that everybody is watching both shows. Hopefully, they will be. I think it’s one of those things where, if you’re not watching both shows, whichever show you’re watching, it will all make sense to you. But at the same time, if you are watching both shows, you’re really gonna get a fun, cool two-night event.

I don't know how you can not watch both shows. Unless you really don't like one character or the other.
