ARROW, FLASH & FRIENDS

Let’s start with Arrow! 

Arrow is the story of Oliver Queen, a rich man who comes back to his hometown, Starling City, after a period of five years spent away.

In Starling City they thought he had died in a shipwreck, in which also Oliver’s father had been involved, but it wasn’t true:. In fact he was the only survivor of the accident, living in an island in the Pacific Ocean, called Lian Yu, which means Purgatory. This incredible experience changed Oliver: now he’s “someone else, something else”!

So he decides to become a vigilante, named Arrow, to honour his father and fix his family’s mistakes.

Rapid like a flash! 

During the eighth and ninth episodes of the second season of Arrow, Berry Allen appears for the first time: he’s a detective for the forensic department in Central City.

Because of the resounding success this character had achieved, CW, the TV channel which broadcasts Arrow, launched a brand new TV series, “The Flash”, which tells about Berry Allen’s deeds.

After coming back from Starling City, he is hit by a lightening caused by the explosion of a particle accelerator which belonged to Star Industries. After this event he is in a coma for nine months and, when he wakes up, he is welcomed by Harrison Welles, the man who had created the accelerator, Kaitlin Snow and Cisco Ramon, two scientists who were working on the project with Dr. Welles.

But now in Berry’s body something has changed: he is very, very fast!

However, he isn’t the only man with powers in Central City: many other people had been hit by the same radiation, getting super powers!

At his point, Berry, helped by Cisco, Kaitlin and Dr Welles, wants to fight evil, becoming a superhero: FLASH!
