The Flash Mirror Master actor Grey Damon wants to don a comic book-accurate costume for his next appearance.

Ahead of Mirror Master's appearance on tonight's episode of "The Flash," titled "The New Rogues," actor Grey Damon spoke with CBR News about his villainous character's debut, touching on the shiny suit he'll wear -- in addition to his hopes for future appearances on the series.

Teasing his suit in the episode, Damon said, "So far, I’m in this shiny suit to sort of hint at where we can go with this. You never know how the costume is going to translate."

As for possible future appearances, Damon said he's not sure how his visual aesthetic will differ -- but he certainly hops it goes in one direction: Towards the comic book end of the spectrum. "I don’t know what they are going to give me. There were talks about me discovering my costume in the show, but right now, my suit hints at it. I have been begging them to give me a real throwback costume. In this world, in this universe, they like to touch on realism as much as they can. They are keeping all the characters believable. I don’t know what they will do with my guy yet. I’ll get a suit if it makes sense. I think they are careful about that, but I don’t think they will keep me in a really nice clothes for long."

Damon is optimistic that Mirror Master will return to the series -- though he didn't confirm anything. He told CBR, "We talked about Mirror Master coming back. Everybody loves the Rogues and I hope everybody loves Mirror Master. I hope he can fit into that team. In the television world, things can work out. At other times, it’s, 'We couldn’t fit it in.' I don’t know how far we would get with all the Rogues teaming up. From my understanding, they really want the Mirror Master to be a recurring guy, but, honestly, you just never know."

Starring Grant Gustin as the Scarlet Speedster, "The Flash" airs Tuesdays at 8 pm ET/PT on The CW. The series also stars Jesse L. Martin, Tom Cavanagh, Carlos Valdes, Candice Patton, Danielle Panabaker, Keiynan Lonsdale and more.
