WBCP will showcase WBTV’s new DC Comics–based series “The Flash,” “Gotham,” “Constantine” and returning hit “Arrow,” along with new Vertigo-based series “iZOMBIE.”

“On the heels of another successful season of ‘Arrow,’ WBCP is excited to introduce to its licensing partners an unparalleled, new slate of content that will cater to audiences looking for smart and inventive programming that explores a wide range of DC Comics and Vertigo characters,” says Karen McTier, executive vice president, domestic licensing and worldwide marketing, WBCP. “Each new show stars an atypical hero who may not be conventional, but whose fight for justice will resonate with fans and licensees alike.”

Among the series beings showcased are:

  • “The Flash”–Set to debut this fall, this superhero drama from the creative team behind the action hit “Arrow” follows the high-speed adventures of the Fastest Man Alive.

  • “Constantine”–a drama about DC Comics character John Constantine, a man waging war against the forces of darkness.

  • “iZOMBIE”–based on characters published by DC Entertainment’s Vertigo imprint, “iZOMBIE” follows a medical resident turned zombie who works in a coroner’s office for access to the brains she must reluctantly eat, but with each brain she consumes, she inherits the corpse’s memories.
