Crisis on Infinite Earths did a lot for the Arrowverse. It consolidated Black Lightning, Supergirl and The Flash's worlds and let them all exist as one Earth, Earth Prime. The other thing it did was to show that other new worlds existed and one of those worlds was Stargirl's. We learned then that she exists on Earth 2, commonly the Earth used for the Justice Society of America. Fans of The Flash may remember that John Wesley Shipp, who played The Flash in the 90's series also played Jay Garrick on The CW's The Flash series from another Earth. Today, according to Entertainment Weekly, we are learning that the first Arrowverse/Stargirl crossover has been set for episode 9 of Stargirl season 2! John Wesley Shipp will reprise his role as the first Speedster Jay Garrick! According the EW:
Jay Garrick plays a role in a pivotal flashback episode that establishes the Golden Age Flash as a member of Earth-2's Justice Society of America. This miniature crossover will officially bring Stargirl [Brec Bassinger] into CW's post-Crisis Arrowverse alongside The Flash, Superman & Lois, Batwoman, Black Lightning, Supergirl, and DC's Legends of Tomorrow.
Stargirl will continue to exist on her own Earth-2 but the potential for future crossovers with Arrowverse shows now exists with this development! Very exciting!
