Out of comicbook.com yesterday, we’ve got news that Demore Barnes will pick up the role of Tokamak for the Second Season of the CW’s hit series, The Flash.
Tokamak, who’s real name is Henry Hewitt, is described by the CW as “a charming, but cocky scientist who was affected by the same Particle Accelerator explosion that created the Flash. When Caitlin Snow (Danielle Panabaker) recruits him to join the team at S.T.A.R. Labs, Hewitt jumps at the opportunity to fulfill his destiny as a powerful meta-human.”
In the comics, Hewitt was originally a Firestorm villain who ran an evil energy company who went on to create a superhero named Firehawk, who was basically the female counterpart to Firestorm. He later went on to conduct the experiments on himself and turn himself into his own version of Firestorm, causing him to build a containment suit to hold in his unstable powers.
