just thought i'd remind everyone that a flash series came out in the 90s that *didn't* star a creepy weirdo. (www.writeups.org)

Speaking of 90s Super Hero shows & actors, I recommend checking out

Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman

staring Dean Cain as Super Man, Cain is one of the few Hollywood conservatives. From my observations of Cain on Twitter, he is a decently level headed guy.

Lois was pretty obnoxious in that show when she got on a soapbox. Way less often than what we see in grrlbosses these days but it was still there.

Danny Eflman's theme for the show was spot-on, and the cinematography and framing was made to somewhat blend with Burton's Batman films.

Loved this show as a kid. Have quite a few Flash comics. Earliest one from 62 I think

Shipp is a highly suspected gay but isn't open about it. I will cede that this doesn't make him a creeper but Flash can't get a break.

Was Grant Gustin a creepy weirdo?

I figure you can assume most actors are creepy weirdos and be right more than half the time. Of course, that rule would probably also apply to John Wesley Shipp as well.

More seriously, I haven’t heard anything about either of them being creepy, no. I’m guessing OP’s title refers to Ezra Miller, from the recent movie(s), who is definitely a creepy weirdo.

Jack Gleeson, Joffrey from Game of Thrones, IMMEDIATELY quit mainstream acting once his GoT obligations were done because he saw what Hollywood did to people.

Good for him. I wonder if playing Joffrey made it easier to walk away—I imagine he had to worry about perpetually being “the character the audience hates” in his future roles, after all.

maybe not...my bad. I tend to assume most actors hired in hollywood these days are creepy weirdoes, though...my bad

Don't worry, I was being a smartass, since Grant was in a Flash series and Ezra was only in films.

Ezra was only in films

Not true. All 3, including the 90s Flash, actually starred in the CW Flash series at one point. John Shipp even starred as Henry Allen to start with in the CW Flash before also appearing as Earth 3 Jay Garrick and then the 90s Flash during the Crisis on Infinite Earths arc.

But it did have Mark Hamill as the Trickster.

That bit in JLU where he voiced him? That was Hamill reprising a role.

'Flash and Substance' is a hidden gem amongst the treasure trove of gems that is JL/JLU and the wider DCAU.

I saw that show. I kept wondering when Green Lantern would get something. We already had the Batman Animated series.

There was an amazing CGI Green Lantern series in 2011.

Sadly, it only got 26 episodes, largely due to the failure of the Ryan Reynolds movie it was meant to promote.

Still, that CGI show is absolutely worth checking out. Green Lantern: The Animated Series.

I don't think many realise just how catastrophic this failure was. It ended other shows like Young Justice because of the lack of potential toy revenue according to Mattel.

I am looking that up now.

For me it's Batman, Flash, Green Lantern, and then Superman.
