The Flash: First official look at The CW’s newest speedster Impulse

Our first official look at Jordan Fisher (To All the Boys: P.S. I Still Love You, Until Dawn) as Bart Allen/Impulse for The CW's The Flash has come racing in.

Naturally, Bart is the future son of Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) and Iris West-Allen (Candice Patton), on The Flash. In the comics and on the show, Bart is the fastest teenager on the planet. However, he's also known for being extraordinarily impulsive, so Barry and Iris are about to be put through their paces when Bart comes barreling into their lives. But they're going to have to make it work, considering that the biggest threat to Team Flash is on its way.

Bart will team up with his sister, Nora/XS (Jessica Parker Kennedy), as well as his parents for “Heart of the Matter, Part 1,” the show's 150th episode.


Fisher himself is what I like to refer to as a Swiss Army knife of talent, meaning that he does it all as a producer, musician, actor, dancer, and activist. Soon, he'll be adding the job of superhero to that list. Is there anything this kid can't do?

What do you all think of Impulse's costume? It's comic book accurate AF I'll give it that. I also dig the gold lightning bolt lining as opposed to the original red-on-red. I think it's the kind of thing I need to see in action before coming down on either side. How about you? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
