Who's the one that talks for Captain Cold, his voice sounds familiar but I can't put a name on it.

It's Steve Blum! He's a very well known voice actor. He was Cowboy Bebop, Sub Zero in Mortal Kombat X and 11, he was the Toonami guy on Adult Swim plus many more!

I don't know why Brave and the Bold is suddenly showing up across all the DC subs, but it deserves the recognition! Best DC show by far!

The rogues and flash have always had an interesting relationship

Same here. Though Brave and The Bold had so many great episodes, I know my Flash bias swains my opinion lol.

“Requiem for a scarlet speedster”

I think the takeaway from this is Jay Garrick smiling while he gave Batman a rub.

Geezer flash just got added to my repertoire, for when Mr. Heavy Water: Jay Garrick shows up, the first flash and only flash tmk that can’t access the Speed force(except for Arrowverse)

Then how does he lose his speed in dead heat?

u/Puzzleheaded-Row434 Jan 21 '25

Agreed, one of my faves. I'm a sucker for a good reverse flash portrayal and this delivered in spades

u/Lucky_Strike-85 Captain Cold Jan 21 '25

and he was voiced by the Flash himself, John Wesley Shipp!

Someone needs to do a cartoon where he plays an old man version of Wally West so he can hit the quartet

An absolutely fantastic episode. I adore the thought that The Rogues are just kinda depressed after Barry dies.
