9:04 Aaron: you are fast Flash, just run around him and go in the hole. Eric: But it's a gorilla. Aaron: So?? Flash goes around Solovar. Aaron: See?? Eric: It won't work he's a gorilla! Aaron: How? WHAT DO YOU MEAN?? This killed me man 😂😂
Summed up in a few seconds how dumb this show can be sometimes. And let's not talk about the mirror universe where everything works normally (electricity, heat, etc.) without any type of maintenance.
Salovar is just a *_representation_* of the barrier in Grodd's mind which means that they have to destroy this barrier (beat Salovar) in order to get out of this. So they can't just go around it. It's just a visual representation of a concept. I think...
Bafflingly stupid decision to not include Thawne in Crisis, Flash teased a big showdown between them during Crisis from the very first episode of its first season and they didn't include him.
People seem to confuse his quote. Reverse Flash says "See you in OUR next crisis" Not the next crisis, so that's why Reverse Flash wasn't in Crisis on Infinite Earths.
@@hichaelmartline That's just the Flash writers trying to make up for Guggenheim blatantly disregarding what the show had set up years in advance. They even had the newspaper change after COIE, it's pretty clear that they screwed up in the writing room for Crisis in regards to Reverse Flash.
If by finally feels like The Flash you mean it focusing on Barry, yeah it's nice getting episodes like that, but also realistically you can't expect EVERY episode to heavily feature Barry like that. Why? Well because Grant will then be filming nonstop and he needs breaks too? This isn't an animated character, the actors have lives and get tired, things happen (Jesse L. Martin breaking his back and Danielle's pregnancy). You also can't have a cast that stays stagnant around Barry and doesn't get developed. So yeah those characters will have their time to shine too, can't always have Grant constantly filming.
@@AnbuPrincess What I meant is that i like the fact that it's focused more on Barry and that the storyline finally moves forward, the last episodes felt like fillers and it was weird watching The Flash and the actual Flash being in there for like 3 minutes. I got nothing against the other characters but i like watching Flash run and fight against cool villains rather than seeing boring storylines of side characters for the enitre episode
@@oneiromancerrr There's fillers after every crossover. It's just a reality of the show as they continue filming when Grant Gustin is filming for the crossover.
Uhh that happens all the time for me. I got savitar identity leaked like 10 minutes after the show finished airing while I was just casually watching YT videos.
That happened with me too, it sucks, now I'm basically obligated to see just my subscription box to avoid this, but even with this I can be spoiled, so basically I can't even open TH-cam
Alternate theory on Wells: What if Crisis merged ALL or some of the previous multiverses' Wells' together? So Nash is hallucinating because he unknowingly has a bunch of the previous Wells's minds inside of his head, and what if "He is coming" means that Reverse Flash is going to come back through Nash's mind? I.e. Nash transforms into Reverse Flash?
ANGRYpooCHUCKER but reverse flash isn’t a version on wells sure he looks like him sometimes but still not wells but a cool theory and could be possible but just done see the reverse flash thing happening but I defo think reverse flash is going to be in this season at some point maybe next episode as sally and Barry are fighting Barry’s biggest villain
And sense Thawne is always disguised as Wells he must've been confused as one, that's why he wasn't in Crisis. And also thinking about, didn't Thawne look blonde in season 5? So probably the Thawne from 2049 was actually Thawne inside Nash's body.
Dead Cool you mean well he was in the cell if so I think that was due to his powers being Repressed therefor he started to age a a normal rate (by that I mean his cells didn’t heal so he go wrinkles and stuff I know they age normally)as when the dagger was removed from his chest he got his speed back and boom he look like he did in season 1 again
Dead Cool and why would he be in nashes body he never met. When ever we see reverse flash as wells it’s always the original earth 1 wells as reverse flash is basically dead but is alive due to him going back in time and shit happening
Thawne didn't just copy Earth 1 Wells then kill him, he literally tore outer layers of Wells apart at the DNA level (leaving behind a pretty awful corpse), then fused the DNA to himself, with his technology acting as a switch on/off. So he's kind of a synthetic Wells, rather than just a look-alike.
Well yeah but that Thawne died. The other versions of Thawne tweaked that device so that it doesn't merge your DNA but rather gives the appearance of the host and can be easily phased off.
@@cosmicmaster1006 I mean yeah, but he also said to Barry "I wonder what face I'll be wearing next time we meet, Flash" indicating that he could in fact change what "face he wore" so to speak.
@@parkerbell3368 true but he also didn't change it IF we are to assume that he went from there to the future and was then placed in prison. But for all we know the modified device could still copy the dna and stuff its just not to the level of the base version. Plus Thawne could've meant like oh hey i wonder what face ill be wearing cus I can just do this again. We don't know if it's a one time use right. The main reason he uses the face to fuck with Barry. That's why he does it. He basically says it in Crisis on Earth X. "Thawne." "Direct from Earth 1. Do you like my face?" "It's the face you were wearing when I became the Flash." "I thought I'd put it on again. You know for old times sake, plus handsome" And then later even though he's not hiding he still used the wheelchair
I had been waiting for Erics reaction to this!! Decent episode imo. i initially was unsure about them doing a redemption story for Grodd but i was ok with it by the end , especially how it tied into Barry's own struggle with dealing with the post-Crisis changes. i was so excited when they gave Grodd speedster powers for a bit , it was a highlight of the episode for me. Chester's arc was fine but i think he is a character that works better in limited doses . Nice to know that Eva is indeed working with/controlling Mirror Iris , i wonder if she originally was the leader of Black Hole before her husband. Also, the Nash stuff continues to intrigue..i intially thought he was just seeing all the different versions of Well but i have no idea whats happening now with that finale scene except that Thawne may be coming back and i'm always here for that!!.
Darth Vader oh ya, definitely. But if I’m being honest, he haven’t really had a bad episode since the Flash came back (I’d even say we haven’t had a bad episodes this season imo). Except for the Amunet episode. Hated it. Every episode Amunet has been in has been bad. Really hope they don’t bring her back any time soon.
I thought Barry working with Grod, trusting him, and giving him a chance to show he has changed, was very "Flash." The Flash's ability to befriend his rouges and get them to be better people/beings, is one of my favorite things about him.
Thawn merged with Wells somewhat mentally /genetically right? Back in season one? It wasn't just a facelift. That might be enough to link them all together.
It could actually be that Thawne actually ran into the Negative Speed Force before the Anti-Matter wave hit Earth-1. But now because the universe and frequencies are all different now, he can’t get out of it or something like that. That’s why only Nash can see him, just like how speedsters could only see Savitar for a bit in Season 3. And he’s going to Nash because Nash doesn’t know who Reverse Flash is while the others do.
Plus back in Season one Oliver fought Wells Faced Thawn and in Elseworld while having the Flash Powers Oliver fought Reverse Flash and he was again represented as a Wells so in Oliver mind, Knowing Thawn had to exist in the new universe would have probably thrown him into a Wells body or mind or something like that
His future tech took his dna turning thawne into wells..dna and everything. So when he got a dna test it would be 100% match with wells...also he uses the negative speedforce and is always manipulating time using it..like not getting erased from existance when his ancestor was killed..
When Thawne replaced Wells, he took his DNA and (according to a deleted scene) also his memories. So he might count as one of the alternates Wells combined in Crisis. I suspect Nash's experience as Pariah has done something to his perceptions, so he can sort of see echoes of the Wells from previous realities... and the most threatening will prove to be Reverse Flash.
My name is Gorilla Grodd the fastest Gorilla alive, to the outside world I am a villain in a coma but secretly with the help of Flash from star labs I'll fight my way out and get home to other Gorillas like me, until then Solovar stands in our way and we together are the only one fast enough to stop him; we are GRODD!
I don’t really trust Grodd. He hates humanity. I just keeping my eyes open, we’ve been burned by Rouges before. Also, with Pied Piper having that sweet sonic scream, how many other Rogues have bonus powers Post-Crisis? And we all knew that Thawne survived Crisis.
In a future episode, We might see how Grodd wants flash’s speed Bc of how good it felt to him. So, we might see a story arc of grodd trying to steal the flash’s speed 🤷🏻♂️
Jonathan Shaw I definitely think he had changed but now he’s felt the speedforce his life in G city won’t satisfy him and he’ll try to get the speedforce. Not because he wants to destroy humanity or take over the world but just simply because he wants to feel that rush again.
LOL @ 13:22 when you guys found out Eva was a villain. I was always suspicious of her because the fact that her backstory didn’t include a clone like Iris was suspect ASF and OMG Reverse Flash is back!!
Thawne didn’t just make himself look like wells though , he used that device to absorb wells and his dna and such . So maybe at the atomic level he technically is wells but with the speedforce and thawnes mind
The part that got me the most was Chesters story about the science fair. Specifically, when he said how his teacher told him no because "in the real world, men like us dont get a second chance". That brought me back to a time when I was younger and wasnt doing that well in school. My dad gave me a lecture, but he stressed to me how when I got to college, the professors wouldn't care less if I had passed or failed. His words made me think college would be a cold and difficult place where professors would be cold, unfeeling, and brutal. A few years later, I went to college. I picked a major, and I met with the professors. Funny thing was that I started struggling a little. Not because I was failing all of my classes, but largely because there was some issues with organizing my classes. I thought i could push through, but two of my professors took the time to tell me that it wasnt possible. They werent dismissing me, they werent cruel, and they werent trying to fail me and move on. They just advised me that I could switch majors with all the extra classes I took, and strongly urged me to do so, because they strongly wanted me to graduate. They cared, and so I took their advice. The point of this story is that I was given a version of reality that was proven to be warmer than presented. We all understand that there is racism in the world, maybe not in the same way, but it does and always will in some capacity. in every family of color, you have to inform the youngest that there WILL be people who want to persecute you and hold you back because of your ethnicity. But at the same time, I think there are some things you should try to avoid in the process. -Make sure you arent projecting your despair onto them -Dont make them blind/deaf to people or possibilities that are offering them benevolence. I know that "old school" folks are only giving advice based on what they experienced, but in the end they only lived in one part of the world during one point in time. They lived in times where people among them fought to make things better and to a point they did. And they didnt do it by giving in to how things were. I like that The Flash touched on something like this, even if it was minor. With all the characters whose ethnicities were changer, they never touched on things like racism in society. I hope he gets has interactions with Joe and Real Iris. It would either give them a chance to expand their backstory or show him a different perspective like Frost did. P.S: Nature is unfair. Life is subjective.
I've gone back to watch the reaction to Reverse Flash more times than I'd like to admit. I always love big moments on the show but then dread the wait until the reaction lol
So far most of the reactions I’ve watched have skipped the Chester and Frost hallway scene. That’s really disappointing because it was a great character development moment for Chester and one of my favorite scenes in this episode.
That Solovar wasn't the real one, it's a mental construct representing the mind suppression artifact, Grood needed the flash to think faster, and flash needed Grodd mental power
I would love it if Grodd became the Deathstroke of this show. Not a hero really, but an anti-hero would be cool. Then we can have a reunion with Grodd and King Shark where they team up against another supervillain (I know Killer Croc is Batman, but something like him).
Gideon was planing to told those changes througt cause and effect situation because there is changes that was made by crisis but those changes caused other changes.
Godspeed is basically just a copy of Zoom. anyway. He really doesn't bring anything to the show besides generic speedster villain. He's not even really a threat to full speed Barry since he's so much faster than Godspeed.
It would be really cool if one of the final episodes of the season they show the original wells before eobard took over his body and explore what the actual Harrison wells was truly like
You know what I think is happening with Barry and the SpeedForce? Remember in episode 7 when Barry phases his hand through the SpeedForce? Maybe that has something with it.
If Nash is a composite of Wells, he may be a composite of Wells Barry, a paragon who helped reshape the new universe, has met and interacted with. And the Wells Barry spent the most time with and thinks about the most, is Thawne/Wells.
I really liked this episode and I would be perfectly fine if this was the end of Grodd's story. It seemed like a good redemption, an epic final battle, and Grodd is now free. The only thing holding it back is that Grodd is still being monitored by A.R.G.U.S. If he wasn't and was completely free to roam around, then it would be, in my eyes, a perfect sendoff for Grodd.
The Harrison Wells situation is interesting because if there was only ever one Wells initially, then the only one that *should* be on Earth-Prime was the original, which Thawne took over. So how can there even be a Nash Wells currently? (Yes, we know the other worlds still technically exist, but Nash wouldn't have known that either now).
8:58 Solvitar? As in Solivar and Savitar? Eric, are you suggesting a melding of a Speedster and a gorilla into one being? Jesus, man, that's ridiculous! That could never happen!
I love the fact that Eric loves Beebo and Grodd as much as I do.😊 So I'm so excited to see Eric's and Aaron's reaction to this entirely great episode. Especially when Barry and Grodd matrix like Firestorm and become Grodd-Flash and Barry says "Run,Grodd,run! Also I love Team Flash 2.0!
my first thought watching this episode was, oh its gonna be one of those episodes where Barry is crazy and he never had speed, his parents are alive. And then i saw Grodd and thought "Eric is gonna LOVE this episode." lol
I am surprised Jesse (or at least her actress) wasn’t back in this with the episode having the title “Grodd Friended Me”. That title had to have been on purpose and without social media being a theme, I don’t think that title could really refer to anything other than her show, “God Friended Me”
I didn't believe in Eric's theory at first but after watching this episode I totally believe it, I mean tbh it makes sense but it's a confusing theory but a smart one tho.
I'm really interested in Eva. What is her goal? I've seen people theorized that he is going after Carver or that she can't leave the mirror by herself, so she needs Siri (mirror Iris) to do something.
This was an amazing episode I loved the workin on his tech and fusing with Grodd and the reverse flash as the ending I’m hyped asf man I really hope the show can get that up swing back and make it to 10 seasons hopefully mirror Iris is crazy I’m now getting hyped for this story line
Do any of you think that the show runners took a page out of Agents of Shield's playbook specifically with regard to breaking up the season into tighter, more palatable pods?
You guys have to remember that ebward thawn has a device that lets him change his genetic code and become anyone and he got stuck in the form of Harrison wells even if he is not the original he still gets registered as one of the wells due to the DNA. And also i think history got re written again? And this time wells is actually reverse flash? Or or he is going to take over the body of Nash wells. And then the team will have to seperate nash mind and body from the thawns mind and body to save nash and thats where Elegra the meta with UV rays will come in handy
9:04 I had the exact same reaction when I saw it was Sullivar. JUST RUN AROUND HIM! Also guys, I don't understand what effect Eddie's suicide had anymore. Can someone explain that? Eobard seems to just still be around.
Long Story short is that when Barry did Flashpoint he needed Thawne to reset the timeline. Thawne used that as a way to escape his faith. Note that he still isn't meant to exist as seen in Legends S2, how he escaped his death after that is unexplained.
Great episode! I think we all couldn't wait for BW's reaction to Grodd with superspeed! But I'm not as excited about Reverse Flash possibly coming back only because we had him last season.
I'm betting he goes back to being evil. He just got a taste of Barry's power. He will probably come after that. With Barry's speed grodds mind would become even faster/more powerful.
I don’t think he’s going to be “evil” per say but he’s definitely gonna become an antagonist again in order to gain the speedforce. I don’t think he would have an evil goal in mind tho.
Flowers reminded me of Batman Crime Alley. Post Crisis is more Flashpoint then Flashpoint was on this show. Flash Grodd-on!!!! 6 years no food or water? Reverse Flash! Yesssss!
9:04
Aaron: you are fast Flash, just run around him and go in the hole.
Eric: But it's a gorilla.
Aaron: So??
Flash goes around Solovar.
Aaron: See??
Eric: It won't work he's a gorilla!

The point of this story is that I was given a version of reality that was proven to be warmer than presented.
We all understand that there is racism in the world, maybe not in the same way, but it does and always will in some capacity. in every family of color, you have to inform the youngest that there WILL be people who want to persecute you and hold you back because of your ethnicity. But at the same time, I think there are some things you should try to avoid in the process.
-Make sure you arent projecting your despair onto them
-Dont make them blind/deaf to people or possibilities that are offering them benevolence.
I know that "old school" folks are only giving advice based on what they experienced, but in the end they only lived in one part of the world during one point in time. They lived in times where people among them fought to make things better and to a point they did. And they didnt do it by giving in to how things were.
I like that The Flash touched on something like this, even if it was minor. With all the characters whose ethnicities were changer, they never touched on things like racism in society. I hope he gets has interactions with Joe and Real Iris. It would either give them a chance to expand their backstory or show him a different perspective like Frost did.
P.S: Nature is unfair. Life is subjective.
Mark this day for the history books. Today, our favourite gorilla became...the Grodd of Speed
Poe: He Flies now?!
Barry: He flies now!
I knew when I first watched this ep Eric would love it!
Loved the way they made the allusion to grodds rebirth origin
I've gone back to watch the reaction to Reverse Flash more times than I'd like to admit. I always love big moments on the show but then dread the wait until the reaction lol
"I am the fastest ape alive"
I love when you watch something, and go, can't wait till I see this. This eposide was for me with Eric. So excited for the reaction
TJ G go eat
@@djcantskate3883 thanks, fix
TJ G oh I was like why are you waiting to watch this before you eat😂
Been waiting for the notification for this video! Awesome episode
He changed his DNA when he used Harrison Wells face so that made him into the doppelgänger wells. At least I think that’s the case
So far most of the reactions I’ve watched have skipped the Chester and Frost hallway scene. That’s really disappointing because it was a great character development moment for Chester and one of my favorite scenes in this episode.
That Solovar wasn't the real one, it's a mental construct representing the mind suppression artifact, Grood needed the flash to think faster, and flash needed Grodd mental power
It was trillion not billion
He also confused Watchmen's "8 billion children" with 8 million
billions, trillions..

I would love it if Grodd became the Deathstroke of this show. Not a hero really, but an anti-hero would be cool.
Then we can have a reunion with Grodd and King Shark where they team up against another supervillain (I know Killer Croc is Batman, but something like him).
Gideon was planing to told those changes througt cause and effect situation because there is changes that was made by crisis but those changes caused other changes.
When you can't have proper Godspeed in The Flash so you get Groddspeed.
Godspeed is basically just a copy of Zoom. anyway. He really doesn't bring anything to the show besides generic speedster villain. He's not even really a threat to full speed Barry since he's so much faster than Godspeed.
Bro! Y’all got the BEST REACTIONS!
Amazing reaction and breakdown ❤️❤️❤️❤️
My name is Grodd, I am the Impossible, I Am the Fastest Gorilla Alive.
Frickin Groddspeed
I remember watching this and laughing at the thought of Grodd and Barry entering the drift to sync up to a Jaeger.
olimakiella the only episode that wasn’t that good was the Valentine’s Day episode but the others were good
Eric on the show Jay Garrick is Henry Allen. His father died before he was born and so they didn’t get married and he kept his mothers name.
GRODDSPEED BIIIIIITCHSSSSSSS!!!!!
love you guys.
13:19 Eric’s face😂😂
It would be really cool if one of the final episodes of the season they show the original wells before eobard took over his body and explore what the actual Harrison wells was truly like
well...
holy shit you madlad
You know what I think is happening with Barry and the SpeedForce? Remember in episode 7 when Barry phases his hand through the SpeedForce? Maybe that has something with it.
We have to wait two Damn week to find out but you could be right or it might be the changes Oliver made.
True
I love your reactions
If Nash is a composite of Wells, he may be a composite of Wells Barry, a paragon who helped reshape the new universe, has met and interacted with. And the Wells Barry spent the most time with and thinks about the most, is Thawne/Wells.
So close to half a million!! Let's get it
Blind Wave:Maybe something is wrong with the speed force
Next Episode:Somethings wring with the speed force😂😂
Pied Piper having sonic powers reminds me of the start of New 52 _The Flash_ line, when the Rogues gave themselves powers.
I really liked this episode and I would be perfectly fine if this was the end of Grodd's story. It seemed like a good redemption, an epic final battle, and Grodd is now free. The only thing holding it back is that Grodd is still being monitored by A.R.G.U.S. If he wasn't and was completely free to roam around, then it would be, in my eyes, a perfect sendoff for Grodd.
best moment is when he says run grodd run!
The Harrison Wells situation is interesting because if there was only ever one Wells initially, then the only one that *should* be on Earth-Prime was the original, which Thawne took over. So how can there even be a Nash Wells currently? (Yes, we know the other worlds still technically exist, but Nash wouldn't have known that either now).
Anyone else get goosebumps everytime s1 Harry makes an appearance
13:45 probably the best part of the episode
8:58 Solvitar? As in Solivar and Savitar? Eric, are you suggesting a melding of a Speedster and a gorilla into one being? Jesus, man, that's ridiculous! That could never happen!
I love the fact that Eric loves Beebo and Grodd as much as I do.😊 So I'm so excited to see Eric's and Aaron's reaction to this entirely great episode. Especially when Barry and Grodd matrix like Firestorm and become Grodd-Flash and Barry says "Run,Grodd,run! Also I love Team Flash 2.0!
what a freaking episode it's been a while.
Reverse flash never said he’ll be in crisis he said see you in OUR next crisis not everyone’s!
Mitch Hendricks I just looked at the video it said our crisis
“See you in our next crisis”
@@smallville316619 no he said "our"
my first thought watching this episode was, oh its gonna be one of those episodes where Barry is crazy and he never had speed, his parents are alive. And then i saw Grodd and thought "Eric is gonna LOVE this episode." lol
I am surprised Jesse (or at least her actress) wasn’t back in this with the episode having the title “Grodd Friended Me”. That title had to have been on purpose and without social media being a theme, I don’t think that title could really refer to anything other than her show, “God Friended Me”
Right? I totally expected her this episode.
I didn't believe in Eric's theory at first but after watching this episode I totally believe it, I mean tbh it makes sense but it's a confusing theory but a smart one tho.
Run Grodd Run
Can I just say, it’s Grodspeed!!! :P
I'm really interested in Eva. What is her goal? I've seen people theorized that he is going after Carver or that she can't leave the mirror by herself, so she needs Siri (mirror Iris) to do something.
She needs the mirror gun for a reason
This was an amazing episode I loved the workin on his tech and fusing with Grodd and the reverse flash as the ending I’m hyped asf man I really hope the show can get that up swing back and make it to 10 seasons hopefully mirror Iris is crazy I’m now getting hyped for this story line
We need more grodd episodes
13:48 He... is... Coming...!
Do any of you think that the show runners took a page out of Agents of Shield's playbook specifically with regard to breaking up the season into tighter, more palatable pods?
You guys have to remember that ebward thawn has a device that lets him change his genetic code and become anyone and he got stuck in the form of Harrison wells even if he is not the original he still gets registered as one of the wells due to the DNA. And also i think history got re written again? And this time wells is actually reverse flash? Or or he is going to take over the body of Nash wells. And then the team will have to seperate nash mind and body from the thawns mind and body to save nash and thats where Elegra the meta with UV rays will come in handy
9:04 I had the exact same reaction when I saw it was Sullivar. JUST RUN AROUND HIM!
Also guys, I don't understand what effect Eddie's suicide had anymore. Can someone explain that? Eobard seems to just still be around.
Long Story short is that when Barry did Flashpoint he needed Thawne to reset the timeline. Thawne used that as a way to escape his faith. Note that he still isn't meant to exist as seen in Legends S2, how he escaped his death after that is unexplained.
Great episode! I think we all couldn't wait for BW's reaction to Grodd with superspeed! But I'm not as excited about Reverse Flash possibly coming back only because we had him last season.
sherique shocked like thawne at the end of the episode to show the viewer who he meant by he is coming sometime soon eobard is coming back
Gideon: I've detected 3.275 trillion
Me an intellectual: MOTHER FORKER
HE...IS... COMING
With Wally and Godspeed returning and this episode they can do their version of Perfect Storm in the future
Amazing epi !
Next epi is the real deal tho
I am scared that Grod getting a taste of Barry's impossible, will reawaken Grod's greed for power.
Specifically Barry's power.
No one is gonna talk about the title ? It's awesome
khannnnnnnnnn were is legends
I am skeptical if Grodd’s redemption sticks. I can totally see next season Grodd being evil again with no real explanation.
I'm betting he goes back to being evil. He just got a taste of Barry's power. He will probably come after that. With Barry's speed grodds mind would become even faster/more powerful.
I don’t think he’s going to be “evil” per say but he’s definitely gonna become an antagonist again in order to gain the speedforce. I don’t think he would have an evil goal in mind tho.
Flowers reminded me of Batman Crime Alley. Post Crisis is more Flashpoint then Flashpoint was on this show.
Flash Grodd-on!!!!
6 years no food or water?
Reverse Flash! Yesssss!
i think all the wells merged into one so thawne could be in there to
run , grodd, run!
There’s no episode next week it’s back on March 10th
We should see more of Chester next season. He's funny and nice.
10:48 That's so funny for me 🤣
*HE IS COMING*
Told you he has all the Wells in him!
I think Barry maybe infected by the negative speed force. I heard this happens in the comics so it would be cool if it happens in the show
