It isn't uncommon to spot a superhero in the flesh in Metro Vancouver these days — but they are usually of the silver screen variety.
Fans of The Flash have had multiple opportunities to spot the cast filming in the city. In October, locals shared images and videos of the actors on set in costume. A New Westminster resident shared a video of actor Jon Cor who plays the DC Comic villain Mark Stevens or "Chillblaine" on the hit show.
Now in its eighth season, the popular CW TV show is about a superhero who assumes his awesome powers after being struck by lightning.
Most recently, a fan captured images of the cast and crew filming outside of The Westin Bayshore in downtown Vancouver from their apartment window.

Another local also captures a film crew in Yaletown, although it is unclear what production company was filming in the location.
What’s filming in #Yaletown? What am I live on the set of? Don’t see any filming notices. @yvrshoots pic.twitter.com/og9cRY4nYf
