The Flash (2014–2023)

The Flash consistently portrays LGBTQ+ characters positively and with dignity. Characters like Captain David Singh and Pied Piper are openly gay, integrated naturally into the narrative without their identities being a source of conflict or stereotypes. Crossover characters further reinforce this affirming representation, contributing to a diverse and accepting on-screen world.

The show features Sue Dearbon, a non-metahuman character, who demonstrates skill in close-quarters physical combat, defeating multiple male opponents. Additionally, Killer Frost, a metahuman, engages in and wins physical contests against male opponents, often using her powers in conjunction with hand-to-hand techniques.

The series features characters such as The Top (Roscoe Dillon in comics, Rosa Dillon in show) and Red Death (Bruce Wayne in comics, Ryan Wilder in show), who were canonically male in their source material but are portrayed as female in the show.

The series features Iris West and Wally West, characters who were canonically established as white in the original DC Comics, portrayed by Black actors. These portrayals constitute clear instances of race swaps.
