8. Time Travel
If X-Men: Days of Future Past proved anything this summer, it’s that when done well, even time travel can work in a superhero movie. That’s good news for The Flash as he spends just as much time zipping through time as he does through Central City.
In the comics, Barry has used a device known as the cosmic treadmill to travel to specific points in time, and it’s a plot device which plays a big role in many of the character’s most well-known stories as you’ll have likely gathered from our previous points. If Warner Bros. really want to differentiate themselves from Marvel with the types of stories they tell, imagine if The Flash was sent backwards or forwards in time?
Remember, introducing these heroes in Justice League means that the studio will probably avoid origin stories, so that frees them up to tell many different and unique stories early on.
