Fans All Around: Kevin Smith Directs The Flash

Fans All Around: Kevin Smith Directs The Flash

Kevin Smith knows a thing or two about super heroes. Therefore, it’s a little ironic that in tonight’s new episode of The Flash, which was directed by Smith, the show’s actual super hero is nowhere to be found.
