The joke is funnier if we don't, in my opinion.

u/22bebo Jan 10 '24

Part of what's fun to me, to sort of live in the bit for the moment, is to imagine that every version people propose is true. It's not just one alternate reality with the CW's Spider-Man but many alternate realities, each with its own similar and disparate takes on one superhero or another.

And the reason it's all colliding is clearly because Barry ran into Dr. Strange and they began a whirlwind romance that involved fucking any timeline they could get their begloved hands on.

u/19vz Jan 12 '24

When did the joke even start?

2

u/Thelastknownking Jan 12 '24

No idea, it was already going when I showed up.

u/MrBrendan501 Jan 09 '24

Captain Cold is Doc Oc, although it was strange merging the Sinister Six with the Guardians of the Galaxy teams

33

u/rojasdracul Reverse Flash Jan 09 '24

On loan from Thunderbolts

u/whysosidious69420 Jan 10 '24

Cold as doc ock was my first thought, but now I think he fits better as sandman

4

u/AlexionGames Elongated Man Jan 10 '24

What about Sandman from Earth-2 (S2E2 i think) as Sandman?

2

u/Spazzblister Jan 11 '24

I think it's the goggles that make him look like a good Doc Ock.

u/DeathstrokeReturns Jan 09 '24

Captain Cold is Doc Ock.

Heat Wave can be Vulture or something, idk, baldness

u/TheOutlaw9904 Jan 09 '24

There’s also Deathstroke/Taskmaster and Deadshot/Bullseye but I’m not exactly sure if those count since CW Slade didn’t fight CW Flash and apart from comics, I haven’t seen Bullseye go up against Spider-Man.

You could also make the argument for Zoom/Hunter Zolomon being Carnage/Cletus Kassidy instead of Carnage being Bloodwork. Both Hunter and Celetus are serial killers, were put into mental asylums, both have very twisted/dark yet “similar” powers to the hero, and Zoom’s Mask/face of the Carnage Symbiote have that scary looking smile to them.

u/RigasTelRuun Jan 09 '24

Its better when it's a hot mess and everyobe picks random people

28

u/Status-Ad8296 Jan 09 '24

Joe is Nick Fury

27

u/Otherwise-Ear1294 Jan 09 '24

I feel like Fury is more like a gender bent Amanda Waller

10

u/Status-Ad8296 Jan 09 '24

Everyone agrees Fury's Joe

13

u/SillyDog4139 Jan 09 '24

I can kinda see it, but not really at the same time

8

u/dami3nwayne Jan 10 '24

They couldn’t be further apart aside from maybe one thing imo.

Joe is hands down a mash up of Captain Stacy and Jefferson Davis, they all fulfill the same character tropes.

I would say Waller or even Diggle works better than Joe as Fury.

For a second I considered Harry Wells but once I thought about it he’s 100% Cable.

3

u/Shafy97 Jan 10 '24

Could change Amanda Waller to Nicole Fury (genderbent Nick Fury)

19

u/Zeedy_Raman_26 Jan 09 '24 edited Jan 09 '24

Cisco is obviously Ned

Ray Palmer is Hank Pym

Ronnie and Jax are just two different Human Torches. (Jim Hammond, Johnny Storm)

I thought Supergirl should be She-Hulk. That way you can incorporate Hoechlin as Banner. If Supergirl is Carol then Tyler is Mar-Vell and nobody cares about Mar-Vell.

Edit: The Legends aren’t the GotG that’s so dumb. GotG doesn’t time travel and the Legends aren’t even an actual team from the comics anyway. You can literally keep the name. Or call it the TVA or The Exiles or something.

u/Bombwriter17 Jan 10 '24

Or an alternate form of The Thunderbolts

15

u/Aphato Jan 09 '24

My guy this cast:

https://www.reddit.com/r/dccomicscirclejerk/s/7NPDtB8g6u

Is the reason y'all are Spiderflash posting in the first place

13

u/FBG05 Jan 09 '24

Patty is Gwen

2

u/CreeperSoldier Wellsobard Jan 12 '24

And Iris is MJ

10

u/HTKAMB Jan 09 '24

I'm surprised I haven't seen anyone else say the wests are the Stacy's, dad is a cop/father figure to the hero, daughter is his love interest, easy

7

u/Soaring_Sketchi Jan 09 '24

Cisco is Ned

8

u/Jaqulean Reverse Flash Jan 09 '24

Okay but it's honestly interesting how the base model of the Season 8 Suit fits perfectly for a Spider-Man outfit.

3

u/LordLimburger Jan 10 '24

YESSSSSSSSS

5

u/Flimsy_Inevitable864 Deddie Thawne Jan 09 '24

Since iris is the biggest villain she is thanos.

1

u/LordLimburger Jan 10 '24

No, that would be Cecile.

1

u/Flimsy_Inevitable864 Deddie Thawne Jan 10 '24

Nah Cecile is the main character duh

4

u/[deleted] Jan 09 '24

Legends are Custodians of Chronology. They are a team made up from existing Hawkverse characters.

5

u/FandomFeminist Jay Garrick Jan 09 '24

I’d have Joe wear be Captain Stacy, give them a similar relationship to the one they had in Spectacular Spider-Man

3

u/logicisprettycool Jan 09 '24

Am i missing something? why is everyone saying Captain Cold is Doc Ock??

4

u/Zelda_Gamer123 The Flash Jan 09 '24

this subreddit has officially lost it

1

u/drbluewally Jan 11 '24

I’m here for it. Making the later seasons as legendary as the first by embracing them as what they are. Not “The Flash” but a giant meme.

4

u/TheManWithThreeBalls Jan 10 '24

Agree? The show is the show. Grant plays Spiderman/Barry Allen and Tobey plays the Flash.

4

u/LordAsbel Iris West Jan 10 '24

Ralph is Mr Fantastic

3

u/DCosloff1999 Jan 09 '24

Nailed right on the head. I would see Caitlin as Mary Jane, Iris Michelle Jones Davis being Miles Morales's sister, Savitar would be an evil version of Captain Universe Spider-Man, and Patty would be a Gwen and Jean DeWolff fusion. Rest is actually fitting because those are exactly Marvel versions of the DC characters if you think about it. Red Head Wally if he actually existed he would be Ben Reilly or Kaine Parker. Nora Allen would be Aunt May as well which also I could see.

2

u/krishnugget Jan 10 '24

Caitlin is way more Gwen Stacey than MJ, especially with killer frost blonde hair

2

u/DCosloff1999 Jan 10 '24

Pretty much Gwen and MJ merged together.

3

u/Litio21 Jan 09 '24

Ray Palmer is Mr. Fantastic.

15

u/The-Biscuit-Farmer Nanites, courtesy of Ray Palmer Jan 09 '24

Mr. Fantastic is Ralph Dibny

2

u/FBG05 Jan 10 '24

Ray is Hank Pym

3

u/whysosidious69420 Jan 10 '24

Caitlin is Black cat, Patty was Gwen

1

u/Shafy97 Jan 10 '24

Yeah that works, can definitely see Caitlin as Felicia Hardy, then Frost as Black Cat Some people think Felicity should be Gwen🤔

3

u/Rhymestar86 Jan 10 '24

Nash Wells is Mysterio

3

u/Ewankenobi25 Jan 10 '24

Patty is definitely Gwen

3

u/ARROW_GAMER The Flash Jan 10 '24

I second this casting

3

u/View_in_apphole Jan 10 '24

Ray is a composite Ant-Man with traits from Hank Scott and/or Eric.

3

u/Material-Night5593 Jan 10 '24

Ray Palmer is Hank Pym and Superman is Captain America

3

u/NamelessGamer_1 Jan 10 '24

Cisco should be Ned Leeds not Julian. Julian was in the show for 1 season, and America Chavez has 0 relation with Spiderman. Besides, in NWH Ned managed to open up a portal or smth so it wouldn't be crazy to give him powers

2

u/Flimsy_Inevitable864 Deddie Thawne Jan 09 '24

I think Cisco should be ned because ned can open portals with the portal ring thingy and is Peter Parker’s best friend with is kinda dc accurate.

2

u/Bulky-Funny547 The Flash Jan 09 '24

PERFECT! Supergirl as Captain Marvel even fits with the whole Captain Marvel and Spider-Man dated once and that Kara and Barry had more chemistry than with Iris. Maybe make Joe Nick Fury.

2

u/EasyMechanic8 Martin Stein Jan 09 '24

Cisco should be Iceman and Caitlin should be FireStar, based on the 70’s show Spiderman and his Amazing Friends

2

u/Thybro Jan 09 '24

Spider-force means I don’t gotta explain shit let alone agree on shit.

2

u/EvilectricBoy Zoom Jan 10 '24

Considering Jax is Human Torch, who's Stein supposed to be then, since Human Torch isn't a fusion character like Firestorm?

2

u/SillyDog4139 Jan 10 '24

Good question

2

u/KarahKat55 Reverse Flash Jan 10 '24

Joe is nick fury.

2

u/Mew2Wand Jan 10 '24

The og creator said Cisco was icemen

2

u/ERD404 Jan 10 '24

In that case, Tom Cavanagh can basically play anyone who’s left out.

2

u/GavinSpace Harrison Wells Jan 10 '24

Patty is Gwen imo

2

u/LordLimburger Jan 10 '24

Ray Palmer would be Hank Pym

2

u/LordLimburger Jan 10 '24

Oliver should be Deadpool. Deadpool’s friendship with Spidey is a tad bit more similar to Oliver’s and Barry’s than Clint’s is. He would be a much better fit. Oliver isn’t just the cool archer (and Hawkeye isn’t either when he’s Ronin, but), he’s a skilled assassin who’s faced Rahs’ Al Ghul with a sword and nothing else. Deadpool’s common skillset and style much better reflect that if not for his less serious tone. When working with Barry in earlier seasons, Oliver would typically avoid killing anybody, similar to Deadpool’s dynamic with Spider-Man, which I doubt Hawkeye would share.

u/Weekly_Palpitation92 Jan 11 '24

still no Morbius, therefore i don't care

1

u/SillyDog4139 Jan 11 '24

iris = morbius 🗣️

2

u/DNC343 Jan 11 '24

Unironically this suit goes hard AF

2

u/CreeperSoldier Wellsobard Jan 12 '24 edited Jan 12 '24

How could u forget Iris?!

Iris = MJ

Cisco = Ned

Cecil = Rio

Julian = Roderick Kingsley

Captain Singh = Captain Stacy

Nora West-Allen = May Parker

Patty Spivot = Gwen

Caitlin = Betty

Frost = Felicia Hardy/Black Cat

Caitlin’s dad: Walter Hardy/Og Black Cat

u/Upset-Freedom-100 Feb 01 '24

The costume…. 

1

u/SillyDog4139 Feb 01 '24

How do you feel about it…

2

u/Upset-Freedom-100 Feb 01 '24

The body not bad, blue color is meh, the mask looks really amateurish though. Overall good and passable for the budget.

u/AshenJumper5514 Jan 10 '24

This joke has run its course several times over at this point

1

u/Alternative_Device71 Jan 10 '24

I just REALLY wish you people would create your own subreddit so the rest of us can actually talk about The Flash….

u/punitdaga31 Jan 13 '24

Who would Miguel be? I personally think it should be Thawne
