Original Barry Allen portrayer John Wesley Shipp -- who played The Flash in the '90s TV series -- joins the cast of The CW's DC Comics pilot, Zap2it has confirmed.
Shipp will guest star in the pilot in a mystery role, and his part is intended to become a recurring role should the pilot be picked up to series.
