My biggest problem with all the time travel/alt timelines nonsense is Barry's decision to stop here, in what is surely the worst of all the alternate timelines.
Mom is dead
Cisco's brother is dead
Wally has no powers
I get the idea that he needs to stop messing with timelines to some extent (although even that is lame). But I cant see the motivation to stop in *this* timeline. OK, Iris and Joe arent dead in this one. But werent there other timelines where they were both alive and at least one of the above problems was also solved?
I really liked Flash s1 and mostly s2 but this season has been pretty lame so far. Also before the season started they said there was going to be 2 main villains this season. 1 was Dr. Alchemy and the other was a speedster they didn't name. Last week (or maybe earlier this week) they announced who it was and it's Savitar. I've never read the comics so I don't know anything about him but just quick google search on him his story seems pretty odd. I'm also pretty sure we've already partially seen Savitar as well.
At the end of ep 2 it shows a flash of white light and then a hand grabs Rival by the neck. In ep 3 we see them watching the video and all it looks like is a couple flashes of white light. No streaks or anything like all the other speedsters so probably setting him up to be super uber fast I'm guessing. video for reference
edit: Also who thinks Wally is gonna end up going to Dr. Alchemy? He seems pretty butt hurt he doesn't have any powers lol
It's like this. You live in Vegas, but you have a friend that moved to Taiwan and suddenly his dick grew 3 inches and he's fucking endless Taiwanese super models. Then he moved back to Vegas, and his dick shrunk again. You're probably going to want to move to Taiwan next.
Show Earth numbers seem to not match comics. Comic numbers do vary admittedly. pre-crisis, post crisis, and nu 52.
Earth 19 is Gaslight Earth in comics. Victorian age. Steampunk, etc.
Earth 17. is atomic earth. Aka Earth-AD, Fallout Earth. Atomic knights, Kamandi.
Cowboy wells earth # not stated.
Victorian/steampunk wells is stated as Earth 17. Would have made sense as EArth 19.
Final Wells is stated as Earth 19. Seems to be a hippie?
Earth 47 is the Love Syndicate. Groovy earth.
