While The Flash started on The Arrow, another show premiering tomorrow night for its fourth season, it is a much lighter and more hopeful show - more Spider-Man than Batman.
Barry Allen and his somewhat merry band had a tough first season facing Reverse Flash and ultimate betrayal, but the core of the story holds. Barry is still the little boy who watched his mother die and his father wrongly imprisoned, and he will continue to struggle with the effects of this childhood trauma with his foster family. The rest of the series is good and bad men and women with other powers seeking their own salvation for their own reasons. Expect more strange battles, yet never forget the story that fuels The Flash.
Update: If you are more in the mood for a classic set of heroes you can watch Dean and Sam Winchester on the eleventh season of The CW's Supernatural. I am not sure how many times the brothers can beat hell, but they have had luck for 10 seasons already. The fun starts tomorrow as well (10/7).
