Although he featured briefly in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, yesterday’s DC Extended Universe panel at Comic-Con gave us our first real look at Ezra Miller’s Barry Allen suited up as The Flash with the release of a promo image and first teaser trailer for Justice League.
Miller’s Flash costume is very different from that worn by Grant Gustin in The CW’s his superhero series, and Screen Rant managed to catch up with Gustin at Comic-Con yesterday to get his thoughts on the rival suit:
“Oh sick, I haven’t seen it,” said Gustin, before being handed a phone with the image. “They’re completely different. Yeah, I mean I was kind of expecting this, I heard it was going to be kind of like Injustice. I hadn’t seen this yet, what else is out? Sorry I’m scrolling through the whole thing, I haven’t seen this picture. Yeah, that’s sick. Um… yeah, it’s sick. I’m glad it’s really different though [laughs]. Because ours is like a street, vintage feel that I don’t think has been done in any other version of the character.”
How do you think the two costumes stack up? Which do you prefer? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below…

Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.

In my very brief experience with the Ezra Miller version, it seems a little bulky for someone who is trying to run around. It’s not bad, but not super. It may grow on me.

Miller’s costume looks like someone tried to make a homemade Power Ranger costume for Halloween. It looks like something out of a B-movie. His Barry Allen take seems pretty weak. Grant Gustin’s version and costume is infinitely better.

Grant Gustin is a whiny bitch who can’t do two shits without Cisco & friends. If a threat arises he keeps blabbering “He’s out there!” “We have to stop him!” “Cisco can you do ‘xyz’ for me?” Barry Allen is supposed to be smart and independent, not some stupid lab intern. Ezra Miller’s Barry looks like he can give Tony Stark a run for his money. Gustin’s suit looks like a bunch of velcro strapped together. At least Miller’s is red. And it’s just a prototype. Not to mention Gustin’s Barry is a total idiot who went up against Zoom with zero prep and handed him his powers on a platter.
Kevin Carter says
Well that escalated quickly….
Joe Ruck says
Ok Ezra don’t hide behind a made up commenter identity, lol
Cameron Olsen says
I don’t love the suit. Its not very eye popping or like something you would say,”wow they did great or it looks so cool.” It doesnt make me feel that way. Its weird and bulky in strange areas. Not terrible but not very good either. I like the CW suit better because it’s simple yet still cool. It has a flash feel to it but the Ezra Miller suit doesnt shout THE FLASH at me. Whats up with the blue lightning too. The flash always has yellow lightning. Oh and who else has a problem with cyborg? Thats some of the worst special effects and costume design ive ever seen. Another bad thing to add onto a failing cinematic universe. Oh but hey justice league look terrible. Oh wait thats bad too. The stories and overall feel of these movies are just absolutely unappealing. One day someone will get this stuff right, but for now Im going to watch movies that actually have well written scripts, better acting, and arent super dark and brooding. Cough, cough, MARVEL, cough, cough.
Bolted4Life says
Lol better scripts? Have you seen Ultron and Civil War? Don’t knock DC when Marvel has its own problems.
Cameron Olsen says
Oh sure it does. Theres no doubt, but Avengers Age of Ultron and Cap 3 are way better than Man of Steel and Batman v Superman. They have the money and the ratings to show for that.
Gary@FlickeringMyth says
I prefer Man of Steel to Avengers: Age of Ultron. Unsure about Batman v Superman yet, but I think if I had to pick one to watch again today I’d go for Batman v Superman over Ultron.
Civil War on the other hand I would agree is better than both.
Katrina Van Dyke says
I agree with you 100%!
Timo Qvintus says
The dumb suit aside, why is his lightning blue? Isn’t that a sign of artificial speed force manipulation?
Cameron Olsen says
I guess you could say that. But I still think its weird. I guess they’ll explain it when the movie comes out.
Who Cares says
Ezra is gonna knock it out of the park. Already loving it more than the CW show, which already pissed on fans by not giving us the original Kid Flash due to redheaded racism, not that BvS didn’t shoot Jimmy Olsen in the face or anything either tho.
Cameron Olsen says
I like Ezra Miller too. He has that joking Flash feel to him and he’s pretty likeable. Im just glad they cut his hair. Thats what’s missing in the CW Flash. Grant Gustin needs to be a little more humorous and upbeat, but otherwise I still like him.
Vic Nardozza says
Ezra Miller completely blows. A horrible casting mistake. Can’t act and looks like a twerp.
Lihn Mahr says
It looks weird to me. Like its too bulky for his tiny frame or something. I dont know. The limited shots of cyborg look weird to me as well. Everything is very angular. Just doesnt look right. Could grow on me im not dissing anything just my first reaction.
rob247 says
Are those armor shoulder pads?
James says
This is FUCKING rubbish
the costume looks robotic
