With huge success, The Flash has seen a great first season on The CW culminating in a huge finale this week which is sure to have viewers chomping at the bit, hoping for more action as soon as possible. They could get that sooner rather than later, with a leaked image appearing on Imgur from the DC's Legends of Tomorrow set showing Harrison Wells in a time capsule, and the hat of the original Flash Jay Garrick sitting neatly on the floor.
The DC's Legends of Tomorrow trailer itself actually shows the hat as well, but it's out of focus and almost unrecognisable.
This comes after Danielle Panabaker - Caitlin Snow in The Flash - said in a Reddit Q&A that she was looking forward to the potential Jay would have going forward with the series.
Though Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) is currently The CW's DC Comics universe's only Flash to exist, it looks like next season is to confirm the existence of more speedsters. Showrunners have outside of the series been talking since last year about the inclusion of Wally West a.k.a. Kid Flash, with producer Greg Berlanti saying more recently he hopes to add another member of the "Flash Family" in season two.
Next to a time sphere in both the trailer and leaked photograph, the helmet could simply be a fan-tailored Easter Egg, but it does seem that it's travelled through time to the present day of The Flash if it's being included. So will this helmet play a significant role in Legends of Tomorrow? That all remains to be seen.
DC's Legends of Tomorrow debuts on The CW later this year.
