The Flash left any number of open questions by its Season 2 finale, among them the speedster future of Keiynan Lonsdale’s Wally West, who never seemed to sprout any powers despite a recreation of Barry’s accident. Wonder no longer, as Season 3 confirms West’s Kid Flash future in a new costume photo, but how?

The CW released an official portrait of Wally West suited up in a comic-accurate Kid Flash costume, albeit without any official explanation of the character becoming a superhero. It’s possible that Barry changing the past left West as the foremost Flash of our new timeline, given the costume is said to appear in October Season 3 premiere “Flashpoint.”

Elsewhere of The Flash Season 3, we know Harry Potter star Tom Felton has joined as a series regular, while Tom Cavanagh has confirmed his return as a Season 3 regular (as what character remains to be seen), along with Violett Beane as his daughter Jesse. John Wesley Shipp will also return as the Earth-3 Jay Garrick, whose identity was confirmed in the second season finale as the mysterious man in the iron mask, while Kevin Smith will direct the seventh hour.

Season 3 of The Flash grows ever more mysterious, but what should we learn from Comic-Con 2016 next week?
