The Flash returns to The CW next week and the network has today released some photos from the upcoming second episode. Featuring John Wesley Shipp as Jay Garrick, we also see the return of actress Michelle Harrison. She's played Nora Allen (Barry's mother) since the first season, but she's Joan Williams here, Jay's love interest on his Earth.

We also get to see Barry trying on Jay's helmet as he comes to terms with his impending death, something which is set to happen during the planned "Crisis on Infinite Earths" crossover event.

The CW has also released a synopsis for the episode which is titled "A Flash of the Lightning."

JOHN WESLEY SHIPP TO GUEST STAR – Faced with the news of his impending death, Barry’s (Grant Gustin) resiliency suffers as he struggles to fight fate. Meanwhile, Cecile’s (Danielle Nicolet) career as a D.A. conflicts with her identity when she crosses paths with a villainous meta-human. Chris Peppe directed the episode written by Sam Chalsen & Jeff Hersh (#602). Original airdate 10/15/2019.
