The Flash: New Banner Image Released

A new promotional banner image for The CW's The Flash has been released to the show's official social media pages.

You can check it out above.

While the original header graphics were basically a headshot and a logo, the new image is more action- and effects-oriented, with a slightly different logo and a much larger scale. During Comic Con International: San Diego last month, the network split the difference, with full-body banners of The Flash star Grant Gustin running.

This one also features both the official premiere date (missing from the original as it had not yet been set) and a recommended hashtag (#InAFlash) for the series (since both #flash and #TheFlash would probably be overcrowded with unrelated material).

Of course, given that particular hashtag -- a reference to a piece of dialogue in the pilot episode -- and the funnel cloud, it could be that this banner is specific to the premiere and that each week we'll have a new image and social media push to go with it.

The Flash debuts October 7 on The CW. It stars Gustin alongside Candice Patton, Danielle Panabaker, John Wesley Shipp, Tom Cavanagh, Jesse L. Martin, Rick Cosnett and Carlos Valdes.
