One of the biggest "The Flash" season 2 spoiler during the San Diego Comic-Con is about Wally West who all comic book nerds know is another speedster, the nephew of Iris West, girlfriend of Barry Allen who in the show is played by Grant Gustin.
Don't expect the CW Network version of Wally West to be 100% true to the comics though. The show has already dropped some hints on who he will be to Barry, Iris (Candice Patton), and Det. Joe West. There are a lot of questions regarding this new speedster? When will they be answered.
Fans will finally have their first peek of Wally West, to be played by Keiynan Lonsdale, on the show's mid-season finale.

There is not much details yet about CW's iteration of Wally West and even the actor playing it remains mum.
"They haven't even told me the exact details yet in terms of the relation to Iris or how exactly Wally is going to be connected into the storyline and how he'll weave through the different storylines, so I'm not really sure. But I'm sure I'll find out soon. It's going to be a hard secret to keep!" he told The Wrap back in August.
