Without reverse flash there would be no flash so it makes sense that the evil version of thawn came back In order for there to be a hero you have to have a villain
The face rip is poetic. You see eobard took the wells face originally. But now wells face was under the thawne one. Therefore the reverse of the original transformation
I wouldn’t say it’s at the quality of the first 3 seasons but it’s definitely getting there and the finale might be at the quality imo, the ending to this episode was absolutely insane though
This ending was insane! The body horror with old multiverse Thawne being resurrected/reborn through flashpoint Thawne was pure perfection. And Barry killing Iris with his own lightning...I'm jaw dropped!
Thawne is always one step ahead of Barry no matter what, this guy doesn't know the meaning of giving up, pure persistence. Side note, he is CW's best villain
Holy… did Sam raimi direct this episode? This part is terrifying! Also, grant’s acting is on another level. At the end, you can see the absolute hatred for thawne when he rips out of the other thawne
@@BattleBondGamer >directed >terrible writer lmao what. you don't even know what you are talking about. People can be writers without directing the episode
Wow Thawne not only was destined to kill Barry’s mother but also indirectly killed his wife! Wow! I know Iris will be resurrected but damn this is sadistic to put Barry through so much of crap!!
That hatred in Barry's eyes at the end. And of course Thawne will always come back and if previous seasons haven't done that already, this season has very clearly made him the biggest villain of the Arrowverse. He would literally kill himself twice over, if it meant coming back with his powers to haunt Barry once again. And killing Iris is just the cherry on the cake for him.
That was the best flash ending in a long time. Perhaps on the entire show ever. Love the surprise twist. Thanks for the Resurrection. Flash. Powerful Words gave me chills 🥶
The fact that they killed Iris, by Barry's own hand is insane and reignited my dwindling love for the show. Now, I'm sure they'll bring her back...after all can't wipe the kids from existence by killing a main character. But this should destroy Barry in the moment, no one can deal with this level of loss.
Yeah, what I predict is that the visions that iris was having were from the positive still force. Somehow getting her to sacrifice herself will “free” the positive forces. After that they will be able to bring her back. They said in the episode that she infected the forces, maybe with her gone, the forces will get better rapidly. This is definitely going to leave Barry scared for a long while.
In a way maybe. Think back to what Savitar said “You kill me, You Become Me. Either way I live” In a way Barry still kills iris be it Savitar Barry or our Barry it’s definitely a big enough loss to drive Barry down the path that caused Savitar to be born
Honestly lm actually hoping this would happen. Savitar's last words were "You kill me, you become me,either way live" and let's not forget Iris's original death was part of the reason Savitar was born in the first place.
@@hiroshiramasendjews9539 Also seing Grant Gustin play villain again. Cmon.. Bad season bad writing good season good writing, Grant Gustin killed it as a villain. Savitar to me gets so much shit but to me he was a great villain the story and the writing was horribly executed.
I had a feeling that Good Thawne wasnt gonna last and somehow Reverse-Flash would be back to his old ways, but I never expected it to be like that. That was fucking incredible.
@@jaypaul15 it’s because we don’t hate on every little thing and enjoy the show for what it is. the people who hate on this show nowadays just do it cause it’s a trend
This would’ve been a great return scene for Savitar, he was caused by Iris’ death, so you could imagine just booming in the timeline or universe, and a blue streak is flashing towards Flash, and then you see the tall Savitar just standing
These last few episodes prove that the CW knows how to produce a great flash show when filler is not involved. I absolutely did not expect this plot twist and I was out of my seat in awe while watching. The fact that they are ending this with Thawne makes this that much more meaningful since in the comics it always ends with him. Also the peeling of the skin of his younger self was unexpectedly graphic in all the best ways possible. Great job to the writers and actors involved.
Thanks for the resurrection, Flash. Body horror, hooked, intense screams & goosebumps. Not only killed the Iris by the Flash also resurrected by him. Tom Cavanagh making his entrance as RF is one of the sickest Flash episode cliffhanger I've ever watched in years
What do you expect from a sociopath and psychopath whose mission in life is to destroy Barry's life and everyone and everything he cares about for selfish and petty gains? He is like virus that gets "cured" but finds ways to "mutate and adapt", returning stronger and more tenacious than ever before.
I was never really a fan of the original suit but the original looks better on Him and Tom looks great in the new suit so I'm pretty happy to see it again
It’s ironic that in season 3 Barry would’ve done anything to stop himself (Savitar) from killing Iris but inevitably, it happened anyway. Imagine next season is Barry’s descent into becoming Savitar. I know it would never happen but it would be cool to think about.
This was so epic, and I really am hyped for the next episode. But you have to admit, that scream from Meena when Reverse-Flash rips his face open was so damn hilarious LMAO 😂
One thing about twists like this, you can sometimes never see it coming and other times you have a feeling that an old enemy will take an opportunity to "rise from the ashes" and come back and even bigger and stronger threat than before. Socio/psychopath Thawne certainly doesn't disappoint especially since we all know that he was beyond redemption and shouldn't have been left alive after he was depowered. That's the problem with the heroes of DC Universe, they have a bad habit of assuming that their nemesis has been completely defeated and is no longer a threat, letting their guards down and themselves wide open to a knife in the back. The only thing a monster like that deserves and pardon me if I am sounding cold in saying this, is a bullet between the eyes and a one-way ticket to the deepest circle of Hell. In the end, Barry will have to live with the aftermath of what has just happened here and will it either break him as well as forever change his destiny as The Flash or will he find a way to make it right and balance the scales of karma like he always does? We will wait and see.........
I bet the entire Team Flash is now going to regret not letting original Thawne disappear out of existence, just like Barry and Iris wanted him to. What really got to me was Joe being such a hard ass to them about it. He's going to be drowning in regret now.
@@MatthewCWelch Flash and Iris shouldn’t get a happy ending at the end of this season, Iris should stay dead and Flash and the others have to deal with the consequences of their actions.
“Nobody uses time against me. I will live. I will change what’s about to happen. And you will help me.” So THIS is what Thawne meant when he said this he had a plan from the jump. Might have been a few things he wasn’t expecting like him dying but whatever he set in motion in that scene led to the payoff here
THIS WAS THAWNE'S PLAN FROM THE TIME VAULT!!!!!!! Bro so much happened in this episode! From the Negative Forces to seeing Joan to seeing Bart and Nora to Caitlin trying to bring Frost back seeing flashpoint thawne in the original Reverse-Flash suit to Iris being killed by Barry's own Lightning! They actually did body horror by old multiverse Thawne being resurrected by ripping through flashpoint Thawne's body!!!!!!
Literally when iris said “the sacrifice isn’t thawne,” my mouth dropped. And then when I saw the still force particles go into good thawne I was like “OH SHIT!” Cause I knew what was abt to happen. My brother came running to see what happen😂
He might come back, because in the comics after thawne made his villain group, barry changed his future. So they could bring matt back, like when ralph was possessed.
@@Zazagod420 hell no I’m terms of pure sinister feeling and who instilled more fear it was Tom Matt just matches the look but no version of thawne was better than season 1 again Matt just matches the look he’s not really scary nor cunning like tom
I wondered Dion killed Thawne at Lian-Yu, but now I understand. A depowered Eobard Thawne wasn't worth the effort. The real Eobard Thawne, the Reverse Flash was needed to not only be the Flash's greatest enemy, but he was also needed to be the avatar for the Negative Speed Force. This is why Eobard Thawne is Barry's greatest enemy, because no matter how many times Barry destroys him, no matter how many times Thawne is erased from the timeline, no matter how many times he is destroyed in the multiverse, Thawne is like a bad penny. He will always turn up, and it's frightening. And the way Tommy Thawne did a kind of caterpillar in a cocoon style thing with the good Thawne by tearing him off like he was nothing more than a shell of his former self in order to reveal the truth underneath, that was not only terrifying, but epic in so many ways. It shows that Thawne is so powerful and so dangerous, that no amount of kindness or decency can overpower the sheer level of evil that is in Thawne's heart. He is the embodiment of pure evil. Savitar came close, Zoom was the only one that could rival Thawne, but Thawne is in a class of his own. And not only has Thawne returned, he's also taken another trophy for himself. He's done what Savitar said he would do, which was take away the one thing that was Barry's connection to any kind of humanity and happiness left in his world. He destroyed Barry's lightning rod. He indirectly killed Iris. Something that villains have tried to do for eight long years, but failed every time. And now, a new force has been created in the form of the new Negative Speed Force, with Thawne being its avatar, and the leader of the Negative Forces.
Well that was definitely not how I thought thawne was going to return. Good lord that scene was actually pretty creepy and Barry's face at the end was perfect
Only the later seasons would have Barry's kids, Bart and Nora, no not Barry's mother who is infact in this scene as a Speedforce avatar, the one who's from a different timeline from season 6 along with Iris having a time sickness allowing her to see the future
Wait I'm confused, If young Iris is dead would bart and Nora west-allen should be erase from existied or is this when the time paradox is being lazy in their jobs AGAIN (season 3 finale as I remember)
@@henryflores6590 they from the the future it take times watch the trailer for ep 20 barry said they going to be erase soon wait if iris died who his love going to be its going to be patty or Linda my vote is patty
@@yt.manape5438 patty is never going to returned because sadly the main director Hates her for working on a different show a long with the flash so the director kicked her out of the show
I knew it was Thawne because at 3:14 you can hear him breathing in the particles sent by the still force and it sounded like he was vibrating his vocal chords so I knew he was finally back and with SPEED 😮💨
Iris dying at the end of this episode, truly was a tragic twist. 😢 The part with evil Thawne being reborn the way he did, now that was even more surprising! The friendly Thawne's face being ripped off to show his evil opposite, sort of gave a horror movie vibe.
Can someone please explain to me how the "fasest man alive" has enough time to lock eyes with Iris before she is even hit by the lightning, but doesn't have enough to time to move her before the lightning hits her?????
The flash is not a god, he is still human, he can experience shock. I would be too if I had been amped up to execute a plan and suddenly someone I’m close to gets subbed in at the last second after I’ve already wound up to take the hit.
Makes totally sense that Thawne rips of his original face, just to wear Dr. Wells face again. I hoped so much that we get Matt back as Reverse Flash in this and next season.
This was the most unique ending... Love the way how reverse flash finds its way back to present Barry.. He never stops trying.. I wish I know what he actually wants ..
OMG I'm so speechless of what just happened and next week is the finale! I can't even imagine what's gonna happen though I have a feeling this finale is gonna intense. Can't wait!
I’m so sad! I loved the Eobard Thawne character arc. Hate the fact that he went through all that character change to be a good guy, found love and got killed off so quickly. I was really liking this Eobard.
My assumption is that when Barry struck Iris with the positive speed force lightning, the negative tachyons in her body must have been flushed out of her system which knocked her out for a bit
@@faiqamel4005 the time remnant was created after Iris died , so he felt the pain , if iris never died , he wouldn’t be born , so going back in time to be savitar , he had to do it to stay in the timeline since the other timeline savitar did kill iris originally
As I said, Barry would regret letting Thawn live. But it was Joe's idea. Joe's Character has changed alot and I am hating it Thawne Killed all the women in Barry's life, Mother, Wife and Daughter
You can literally see it. In S2 he saw Wells and didnt even thought before shooting him. And at that point he didnt even did many things besides killing Barry's mom, its been 7 season and now Thawne is a fucking threat and they didnt even tought about letting him die, it wasnt a matter of killing him (and Barry/Team did this with that atomic guy and aliexpress Sandman), it was a matter of letting him die along with Negative Speedforce, what would kill him forever. Smh
Yes but still killing a live is it gonna solve anything you would become your worse enemy. in fact you would become worse than your enemy because you broke your own rule
@@thelegend_jlz I mean he didn't have to kill Thawne, he should've just left him get an actual penance for all the bs he did to the timeline out of spite and hatred for Barry.
Why must the leather suits be destroyed? That was the better version of Reverse Flash’s suit. Also, anyone else noticing that Barry essentially gave suits that reflected off on Reverse Flash and Zoom?
Where the scene of the face ripping is similar to the human becoming an Ood in Doctor Who (3:42 - 3:54) It appears the writers are fans of Who. Or it just could be a timely wimely, wibbly wobbly 10th Doctor references.
Ok that ending Tom ripping off matts face was just straight up old school horror and grants acting without even talking although out was just 👌🏻peak show don’t tell
They was telling us the whole time!! They looked at FP thawne and said "You're not the avatar. Just being here makes us weak!" That's an actual spoiler during the show
I cried watching this It's so sad But God Lee Thawne was not only destined to kill Barry's mother but also indirectly killed his wife!God!I know Iris will be resurrected but damn this is sadistic to put barry thorough so much crap!! Barry=😭🙍
It's been amazing how better it's been the past couple of episodes. It's like they have a whole new writing team or something. I mean the recent episode was almost like a mini movie. Just incredible. It's about time. Because it's been cringy and boring for about two seasons for the most part
Barry barely reacted to seeing his wife dying in front of him. Meena's reaction to seeing Flashpoint Eobard dying, however, is much more emotional. Even if indirectly, Thawne took the life of the only version of himself who got to live a happy life and actually got to be a hero and overcome the effects of the Negative Speed Force. Well, goodbye, Matt. See you next time the time wraiths feel like bringing you back.
( @@ГригорийГ-ч4н ) It wasn't that many times, it was only 2: Henry Allen and Nora West-Allen from Season 5. And even if it was that many of times, it's still his wife, the mother of the children he didn't even seen born, so there's a chance they are affected as well. I mean, c'mon, he's gotta act a little bit more terrified or angry about something like this.
@@barditooficialytbr Eddie Ronnie Ralph Oliver Iris in season 3 HR Frost His mother (multiple times) His father even though he will cry he won't react like Meena who doesn't experience death of the person she loves in front of her without the capacity of doing anything
Meena made it hilarious actually. Her screaming made me laugh my ass out. But with all seriousness thawne ripping his own body apart to come back was actually twisted.
This was amazing, love the comic reference, and it totally caught me off guard. I do hope Matt comes back though, especially for the Series finale which I assume will be the next season, it was great seeing him again.
Yeah but we seen that kind of thing before back in season three of the flash when Savitar kills iris this time i feel she will be back next episode they will bring her like they did before in finish line of the flash
Yeah but they stopped it before she got killed it’s different here because they didn’t stop it she actually died (probably, cuz I haven’t watched the episode)

The producer has already said that Barry and Iris get a happy ending at the end of this season. I just wanna see how it goes down.
@@Reoxirr What do you mean?
@@MatthewCWelch Flash and Iris shouldn’t get a happy ending at the end of this season, Iris should stay dead and Flash and the others have to deal with the consequences of their actions.
i loved this scene cause its straight from the comics and the cgi held up looks amazing this was one sight to see reverse flash resurrected
“Nobody uses time against me. I will live. I will change what’s about to happen. And you will help me.”
So THIS is what Thawne meant when he said this he had a plan from the jump. Might have been a few things he wasn’t expecting like him dying but whatever he set in motion in that scene led to the payoff here
Wait yeah true. We never knew what thawne meant by “You will help me” nice dude I woulda never thought of that
@@q.st1m he was talking to gedion
Exactly why he said "my goals are beyond your understanding" back then in Season 1
THIS WAS THAWNE'S PLAN FROM THE TIME
VAULT!!!!!!! Bro so much happened in this
episode! From the Negative Forces to seeing
Joan to seeing Bart and Nora to Caitlin trying
to bring Frost back seeing flashpoint thawne
in the original Reverse-Flash suit to Iris being
killed by Barry's own Lightning! They actually
did body horror by old multiverse Thawne
being resurrected by ripping through
flashpoint Thawne's body!!!!!!
Literally when iris said “the sacrifice isn’t thawne,” my mouth dropped. And then when I saw the still force particles go into good thawne I was like “OH SHIT!” Cause I knew what was abt to happen. My brother came running to see what happen😂
He might come back, because in the comics after thawne made his villain group, barry changed his future. So they could bring matt back, like when ralph was possessed.
I'm hoping that Matt will be back because I want to see a good Thawne live like his main dc part.
Matt letscher needs to come back
@@chaselowrey8494 yea he’s good but so is Tom they are both really good
tom is garbage compared to Matt not to mention Matt is the ideal reverse flash look wise
@@Zazagod420 hell no I’m terms of pure sinister feeling and who instilled more fear it was Tom Matt just matches the look but no version of thawne was better than season 1 again Matt just matches the look he’s not really scary nor cunning like tom

I wondered Dion killed Thawne at Lian-Yu, but now I understand. A depowered Eobard Thawne wasn't worth the effort. The real Eobard Thawne, the Reverse Flash was needed to not only be the Flash's greatest enemy, but he was also needed to be the avatar for the Negative Speed Force. This is why Eobard Thawne is Barry's greatest enemy, because no matter how many times Barry destroys him, no matter how many times Thawne is erased from the timeline, no matter how many times he is destroyed in the multiverse, Thawne is like a bad penny. He will always turn up, and it's frightening. And the way Tommy Thawne did a kind of caterpillar in a cocoon style thing with the good Thawne by tearing him off like he was nothing more than a shell of his former self in order to reveal the truth underneath, that was not only terrifying, but epic in so many ways. It shows that Thawne is so powerful and so dangerous, that no amount of kindness or decency can overpower the sheer level of evil that is in Thawne's heart. He is the embodiment of pure evil. Savitar came close, Zoom was the only one that could rival Thawne, but Thawne is in a class of his own. And not only has Thawne returned, he's also taken another trophy for himself. He's done what Savitar said he would do, which was take away the one thing that was Barry's connection to any kind of humanity and happiness left in his world. He destroyed Barry's lightning rod. He indirectly killed Iris. Something that villains have tried to do for eight long years, but failed every time. And now, a new force has been created in the form of the new Negative Speed Force, with Thawne being its avatar, and the leader of the Negative Forces.
This was one of the best scenes in the flash ever
The plot twist, the cliffhanger. Ugh this episode was soo good it had me at the edge of my seat
Well that was definitely not how I thought thawne was going to return. Good lord that scene was actually pretty creepy and Barry's face at the end was perfect
Only the later seasons would have Barry's kids, Bart and Nora, no not Barry's mother who is infact in this scene as a Speedforce avatar, the one who's from a different timeline from season 6 along with Iris having a time sickness allowing her to see the future
Wait I'm confused, If young Iris is dead would bart and Nora west-allen should be erase from existied or is this when the time paradox is being lazy in their jobs AGAIN (season 3 finale as I remember)
@@henryflores6590 they from the the future it take times watch the trailer for ep 20 barry said they going to be erase soon wait if iris died who his love going to be its going to be patty or Linda my vote is patty
@@yt.manape5438 patty is never going to returned because sadly the main director Hates her for working on a different show a long with the flash so the director kicked her out of the show
Henry Flores and YT.ManApe can't use proper spelling or grammar, neither can you it seems.
@@henryflores6590 its funny how she wasnt fired for her tweets she made like sawyer was
3:40 that was actually a good practical effect for this show
I knew it was Thawne because at 3:14 you can hear him breathing in the particles sent by the still force and it sounded like he was vibrating his vocal chords so I knew he was finally back and with SPEED 😮💨
Iris dying at the end of this episode, truly was a tragic twist. 😢 The part with evil Thawne being reborn the way he did, now that was even more surprising! The friendly Thawne's face being ripped off to show his evil opposite, sort of gave a horror movie vibe.
Iris dying isn't tragic in the slightest. I was cheering the whole time watching.
@@nathanieldiaz5254 😂😂😂
@@nathanieldiaz5254 she will back unfortunately
Ratiooooo
@@ametx-iy1wp That's the real tragedy
Can someone please explain to me how the "fasest man alive" has enough time to lock eyes with Iris before she is even hit by the lightning, but doesn't have enough to time to move her before the lightning hits her?????
lets be real, I havent watched the Flash since s6 but he's human. it was most likely shock
Shock/plot
Nah, just another flash bruh-moment, lmfao
The Writing 🤣
The flash is not a god, he is still human, he can experience shock. I would be too if I had been amped up to execute a plan and suddenly someone I’m close to gets subbed in at the last second after I’ve already wound up to take the hit.
My blood went cold when he ripped off his own face. That was chillingly amazing!
That ending was incredible! Straight from a comics cover, I love it.
I literally can't stop rewatching this scene. It's so shocking! I can't wait for the season finale!
Makes totally sense that Thawne rips of his original face, just to wear Dr. Wells face again. I hoped so much that we get Matt back as Reverse Flash in this and next season.
yeah but it sucks that he’s wearing his new suit bc it looks horrible on him, his old suit was just amazing on him
There might not be a next season
@@aheartonfire7191 it’s confirmed s9 but that’s the last one
@@Shanemeister_Reacts sweet
Even tho Matt’s thawne died again here it was actually for the plot to move forward while on legends he died for no point
You said exactly why his death on Legends was pointless...
I'm still pissed off that they wasted him again.
@@wyattlundrigan4740 the writers have never been good

The music starting at 1:05 gets me so amped. This episode was truly beautiful, passionate,and unfortunately terrifying.
Savitar: Is that legal???
Props to Matt Lescher for that wonderful performance
The guy really felt like he was in pain.
Such a dedicated performer. He really went above and beyond by actually tearing his own face off.
@@FutureDeep And letting Tom Cavanagh get inside of him! Now that's true dedication.

Good god that was just crazy. I wasn't expecting him to rip his own face apart to reveal Tom's version coming out from underneath
HOLY SHIT!!!! They pulled a “Running Scared” on us!!!!
What's that mean?
@@chaselowrey8494 its a comic
This was the most unique ending... Love the way how reverse flash finds its way back to present Barry.. He never stops trying.. I wish I know what he actually wants ..
Barry's reaction is priceless
One of the best cliffhangers holyyyyy
OMG I'm so speechless of what just happened and next week is the finale! I can't even imagine what's gonna happen though I have a feeling this finale is gonna intense. Can't wait!
I haven’t been watching but that’s not the finale?
3:58 when he says Flash it give me chills
I’m so sad! I loved the Eobard Thawne character arc. Hate the fact that he went through all that character change to be a good guy, found love and got killed off so quickly. I was really liking this Eobard.
Same. Wholeheartedly agree.
3:54 this has got to be the worst “horrified scream” I’ve ever seen in my life.
This is definitely a top 5 episode ever🫢
Where did u watch it on
This is the best ever i have seen from this and i have watched every episode since season 1 episode 1.
@@fridgecold4048 not the best bc episodes with Zoom exist lol
Definitely not lmao
Top 5 ever? Definitely not lmfao.
… Thawne ripping the skin off the other Thawne. Epic. Scary but epic.
It’s wasn’t really scary, it was more disturbing.
My assumption is that when Barry struck Iris with the positive speed force lightning, the negative tachyons in her body must have been flushed out of her system which knocked her out for a bit
Shes Dead. Im pretty sure they're going to try to bring her back tho
That face rip scene is straight out of the comics. ONLY IN REVERSE!!
I thinks this has been my fav episode ever
If this was the ending of the season they could have found a way to bring back Savitar and have Barry go almost insane again
That would be sick
That would be amazing
This is almost exactly how Savitar started…
But why woukd savitar want to kill the love of his life, he could have saved her
@@faiqamel4005 the time remnant was created after Iris died , so he felt the pain , if iris never died , he wouldn’t be born , so going back in time to be savitar , he had to do it to stay in the timeline since the other timeline savitar did kill iris originally
As I said, Barry would regret letting Thawn live. But it was Joe's idea. Joe's Character has changed alot and I am hating it
Thawne Killed all the women in Barry's life, Mother, Wife and Daughter
You can literally see it. In S2 he saw Wells and didnt even thought before shooting him. And at that point he didnt even did many things besides killing Barry's mom, its been 7 season and now Thawne is a fucking threat and they didnt even tought about letting him die, it wasnt a matter of killing him (and Barry/Team did this with that atomic guy and aliexpress Sandman), it was a matter of letting him die along with Negative Speedforce, what would kill him forever. Smh
Yes but still killing a live is it gonna solve anything you would become your worse enemy. in fact you would become worse than your enemy because you broke your own rule
@@thelegend_jlz Technically Flash wouldn't have been killing him. He just wouldn't have saved Reverse Flash.
@@thelegend_jlz I mean he didn't have to kill Thawne, he should've just left him get an actual penance for all the bs he did to the timeline out of spite and hatred for Barry.
@@thelegend_jlz
Barry could of just let Thawne got erased from existence. Thawne isn't a human being, he is pure evil. Now many more people will die
I miss the days when Barry used to break the sound barrier running like this
3:27 Tom Cavanagh’s Reverse Flash Transformation
Man it was so nice to see this in my recommended, before I'd seen the episode
sigh...
Can they just... STOP KILLING OFF MATT LETSCHER'S THAWNE?!?!?!
FR LET THE MAN CATCH A BREAK
whilst i would prefer to keep matt around, this was such a brilliant cliffhanger. Was not expecting it at all.
At least, this death was worth him being a speedster, unlike the previous one as the guardian of the fixed point.
ehh it made sense
@@byonemesis Yep and his acting was amazing here, the screams were genuine.
I like how his lightning has never been more than a mild itch for literally anyone until now, where it's fatal in seconds.
well this time barry built up a whole lot more speed than normal
Iris’ body was degrading due to whatever was happening to her.
Why must the leather suits be destroyed? That was the better version of Reverse Flash’s suit. Also, anyone else noticing that Barry essentially gave suits that reflected off on Reverse Flash and Zoom?
Where the scene of the face ripping is similar to the human becoming an Ood in Doctor Who (3:42 - 3:54)
It appears the writers are fans of Who. Or it just could be a timely wimely, wibbly wobbly 10th Doctor references.
I love the music a it plays at the end All the way back from season one
This is definitely a reference to the rebirth of a image of Reverse Flash being revamps/reborn Image of ripping the flash apart showing Reverse Flash
Thwane is right
He is the only speedster that knows how to manipulate the timeline to get what he want😎
They don’t call him the reverse flash for nothing Lol
Ok that ending Tom ripping off matts face was just straight up old school horror and grants acting without even talking although out was just 👌🏻peak show don’t tell
Dude this guy just never dies!! He just keeps coming back!!!
They was telling us the whole time!!
They looked at FP thawne and said "You're not the avatar. Just being here makes us weak!"
That's an actual spoiler during the show
The ending was great, I was hoping to see more of Matt and having his eyes red wanting to kill Barry but this episode was 10/10
Reverse Flash is on a hole nother level when it comes to being insane literally
Not like zoom
I cried watching this It's so sad But God Lee Thawne was not only destined to kill Barry's mother but also indirectly killed his wife!God!I know Iris will be resurrected but damn this is sadistic to put barry thorough so much crap!!
Barry=😭🙍
where did u watch the ep
@@daishikigamer movies7 it just came out on there
Well Thawne didn't kill Iris even indirectly. The negative still force did.
No no no, Barry killed his wife
Nothing is really confirmed if iris will come back. We’ll just have to wait and see
I love how they ignored Meena’s scream Lmao and the hatred in Barry’s eyes
It's been amazing how better it's been the past couple of episodes. It's like they have a whole new writing team or something.
I mean the recent episode was almost like a mini movie. Just incredible.
It's about time. Because it's been cringy and boring for about two seasons for the most part
"Thanks for the Resurrection, Flash." Cold ass line there
Well no Thank You
Barry barely reacted to seeing his wife dying in front of him. Meena's reaction to seeing Flashpoint Eobard dying, however, is much more emotional. Even if indirectly, Thawne took the life of the only version of himself who got to live a happy life and actually got to be a hero and overcome the effects of the Negative Speed Force.
Well, goodbye, Matt. See you next time the time wraiths feel like bringing you back.
Barry saw it [many] times already. Meena... is not used to any of that.
( @@ГригорийГ-ч4н ) It wasn't that many times, it was only 2: Henry Allen and Nora West-Allen from Season 5. And even if it was that many of times, it's still his wife, the mother of the children he didn't even seen born, so there's a chance they are affected as well. I mean, c'mon, he's gotta act a little bit more terrified or angry about something like this.
@@barditooficialytbr Eddie Ronnie Ralph Oliver Iris in season 3 HR Frost His mother (multiple times) His father even though he will cry he won't react like Meena who doesn't experience death of the person she loves in front of her without the capacity of doing anything

Yeah but we seen that kind of thing before back in season three of the flash when Savitar kills iris this time i feel she will be back next episode they will bring her like they did before in finish line of the flash
yeah and when the forces killed iris last season
there was a rumor that Candice Patton actress of Iris or she stated that she is unsure if Iris will appear in S9
Yeah, they only kill characters when the actual actors/actresses leaves the cast. Like Tom with Wells.
Yeah but they stopped it before she got killed it’s different here because they didn’t stop it she actually died (probably, cuz I haven’t watched the episode)
