A lot of people are speculating on who exactly Harrison Wells is on CW's The Flash, and one very smart person on Facebook may have found the answer.
Jonathan Corbitt found and episode of The Super Friends that featured one "Dr. Wells," although no first name was given. The episode's title is "The Elevator To Nowhere," and it only runs around eight minutes long. The episode features Wonder Woman and the Atom. They're summoned by a Dr. Wells, who tells them that he's underground and they can reach him by taking an elevator. It turns out that the "elevator" is actually a time machine and Wonder Woman and the Atom end up having to travel through time, escape capture, return to the present, and capture Dr. Wells.
Now, I watched this show religiously when I was a kid, but I don't remember this episode. I'm going to see if they have it available on Netflix this afternoon. I'm curious to watch this episode again. That being said, the similarities between the two characters are extroidinary. Not only do their appearances look the same, that is if Tom Cavanagh were an 80's cartoon character, but the whole time traveling angle jibes as well. Could Harrison Well's little secret room be his "elevator?" Geoff Johns is an executive producer on the show, and it's reported that he does contribute to the creative process. His knowledge on all things DC is extensive, so who's to say he didn't find this guy from the cartoon and expand on who he is?
What do you think? Does this sound plausible? What are your theories on who Harrison Wells really is? Leave a comment and let me know!
