Robbie Amell is returning to The Flash, but this time as the Earth-Two Deathstorm! Executive producer Andrew Kreisberg told Entertainment Weekly:
We are beyond excited to have Robbie back on The Flash. You can’t keep a good Firestorm down. Only this time, he’s back with a twist, a deadly Earth-Two version of our beloved Ronnie in the form of Deathstorm.
I’m not sure how much similarity we’ll see between the TV version of Deathstorm and the two comic versions we’ve met previously. Personally, I’m hoping if there are any similarities he’s more like the second comic incarnation of Deathstorm (from the Crime Syndicate). I’ve previously outlined my concerns about the first Deathstorm incarnation.
Also, according to the EW article, on Earth-Two Ronnie and Caitlin are still a couple! If you’ve been watching previews for The Flash, then you know the Earth-Two version of Ronnie’s former wife, Caitlin Snow (Danielle Panabaker), is actually Killer Frost! Below is a pic of Robbie Amell in his Deathstorm costume taken on the set of The Flash.

My thanks to many, many Match-heads for the heads-up on Robbie Amell’s and Danielle Panabaker’s alter-egos!
Support Firestorm (and The Flash TV Series)! Fan the flame!
Awww yeah! You know I got Flash S1 for Christmas purely because it had Firestorm. (well… it’s not a bad show either lol)
My biggest problem with Deathstorm in the comics is that they overplayed him (well, I didn’t see his forever eval version) to the point it started becoming humorous. If you told me he wasn’t a reanimated Ronnie, but William Shatner brought back I would have believed it.
