Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

Luthor's plan to force Superman to kill Batman by threatening Clark's mother is foiled by them teaming up. Batman goes to rescue Martha, while Superman confronts Luthor, who reveals he's created Doomsday, a Kryptonian monster, by merging his own DNA with the body of Zod.

Diana Prince/Wonder Woman, who's seen the carnage unfolding, returns to help. Batman lures Doomsday to the docks, where he left the Kryptonite spear he intended to use on Superman. The three of them team up to take down Doomsday, Superman taking off briefly to rescue Lois who's become trapped while trying to retrieve the spear. Realising he has to use the spear to kill Doomsday which will also fatally weaken him, he tells Lois he loves her before flying off, spear in hand.

He pierces Doomsday's chest, but is himself stabbed, and they both die. Batman and Wonder Woman are at his side while Lois cradles his body, but nothing can be done. Superman receives a funeral with full honours, while Clark is buried in Smallville. His mother gives Lois the engagement ring Clark was intending to surprise her with, and she puts it on.

Bruce and Diana are at Clark's grave - he tells her that they need to find "others like you", and has a feeling they'll need to fight. Lex Luthor is seen in his cell having been menaced by Batman, who says "he's coming", most likely Darkseid, judging by Batman's dream/vision of Parademons. The final shot lingers on Clark's coffin, and the soil Lois threw onto it starts to float...

Continuity mistake: When Batman goes to save Martha, he pulls the wooden box with his gun and throws it at one bad guy. The guy's head hits the wall, leaving blood. Later on, you still can see the dead guy but there is no blood on the wall any more. The blood appears again when Batman is about to finish off the last person who was stabbed and pinned against the wall. (02:17:30 - 02:18:35)

Question: Who is it that Bruce sees in his dream/vision while waiting for the file to be decrypted? It seems like it might be the Flash, given his time/dimension-travelling powers, but it doesn't look like Ezra Miller and seems to be wearing some sort of armour.

Jon Sandys

Chosen answer: It is Flash. He is wearing armour because of whatever has transpired in the future. He often wears an armoured suit in dire circumstances in the comics.

Also, if you look at the bottom of the image frame you can just make out the Flash icon on his chest piece.
