The Flash Season 18 Episode 1 is bringing a threat that Flash may have never faced before. A threat right from outer space that literally came looking for Barry Allen. Now, this threat promises to finish everyone he knows. This sees Barry calling in for backup from friends who have saved this world with him for a number of times. But before we move to the same, the Flash faced a similar future-ending threat in the form of the Godspeed Civil War. Something that wrecked the Central City for most of Season 17.
So this civil war constantly saw Team Flash being outnumbered or defeated. In the end, The Flash was left with only one choice. He may have to give Godspeed the thing he wants. This may help him to stop the civil war but in the process sacrifice his family for the world. The Flash crossed out all the possibilities and had to bring an unlikely ally into the war. The problem is, once this crisis is over, this ally would love to kill The Flash the moment he gets. Here is a look at it.
The Flash Season 17 Finale Recap
For the entirety of The Flash Season 17, we saw a civil war between various versions of Godspeeds wreaking havoc in the central city. The exact reason was under wraps until Barry went inside August’s mind. Talking to him told Barry that August wants Organic Speed. If he gets it, he will reabsorb the other versions of his. Refusing will just leave him to let the versions burn this city to the ground like they are already doing. August woke up to be scared of this future version of his. So were Flash and his team.
Team Flash starts crossing things out while Cecile calms August down who is worried about his future evil version. Chester on the other hand spends time bringing Allegra back. As Team Flash was getting ready to fight, Big Nora came back. Also, she had a gift for each one of them as they boasted them up. That included Bart who stood on his feet too. So it was time to join the battlefield.
