While the costume may look nearly identical to the one worn by Shipp during his first go-round as The Flash in 1990 and 1991, Guggenheim credited The Flash costume designer Kate Main with "pulling off this miracle," developing a costume that looked like the original but presumably did not leave Shipp as miserable as that one did. https://comicbook.com/dc/2018/10/23/new-john-wesley-shipp-as-the-flash-photo-revealed-for-arrowverse/Arrowverse "Elseworlds" Crossover: First Look at the Monitor Revealed (Date: 23 Oct 2018)The Monitor is coming to the Arrowverse and a new batch of set photos has revealed a first glimpse at the character in live action.

In the "Elseworlds" crossover, he is played by LaMonica Garrett. https://comicbook.com/dc/2018/10/23/arrowverse-elseworlds-crossover-monitor/ NEXT EPISODE Link to Promo: (Date: 22 Oct 2018) https://www.comicbookmovie.com/tv/dc/arrow/arrow-oliver-fights-for-his-life-in-the-new-promo-for-season-7-episode-3-crossing-lines-a164282 Episode: “Crossing Lines” [Season 7 Episode 3] Air Date: Monday, October 29, 2018 Summary:Still in prison, Oliver faces his biggest challenge yet.
