I had the *exact* same thought as Leenovak too. They just thought the name sounded cool.

For years during Smallvilles 10 year run, I hoped that Ronnie, Prof. Stein or even Jason would turn up. I wanted them to be inspired by Clark, so when he would eventually turn into Firestorm, he would use Clark’s example and become a hero… Sadly it never happened.

Im glad to see that WB are continuing to use characters that already exist in DC Universe rather than create new ones.

I agree with Leenovak16 that some exec read her name in somewhere and decided to use her for the series.

As much as I would love to see some version of Firestorm/Ronald Raymond in this series, I am not getting my hopes up. Part of me thinks the executives saw the name “Felicity Smoak” in some “Super-Duper Encyclopedia of Minor DC Characters” and thought the name would appeal to the demographic this show is going to be skewed toward. When a DC employee casually said, “You know, she is part of Firestorm’s history”, I have a feeling the producers of the show said “Firewho?”.

I am looking forward to this show. This bit of news… does not impact me one way or the other, although this is a quite strange character choice.

It’s nearly as strange as the inclusion of Eric Savin (Coldblood?) in Iron Man 3.
