New Arrowverse crossover set photos reveal that the Elseworlds versions of The Flash and Green Arrow will be DC Comics’ Trigger Twins.
Production on the Supergirl portion of the upcoming Arrowverse crossover is currently underway and new set photos reveal Stephen Amell and Grant Gustin wearing jackets with a “Trigger Twins” label, indicating that at least one version of The Flash and Green Arrow will be the Elseworlds incarnation of the DC Comics characters. In the comics, the Trigger Twins were originally cowboy heroes in the Old West named Walt Trigger and Wayne Trigger. However, the name was later used by characters named Tad Trigger and Tom Trigger, who worked as criminals in Gotham City and became enemies of Batman.
