This week on The flash, we learned that the five-week event named “ Armageddon” was some kind of Trojan steed, leading to the disclosure that what we and Barry have actually witnessed … is a Rear-Flashpoint! After rushing to 2031 (when he allegedly caused Armageddon), Barry was goggled at by Iris, Chester, and other Team Flash members and musketeers — each because, he latterly plant out, Eobard Thawne had traveled back in time to, among other effects, kill youthful Barry Allen and produce a “ Rear-Flashpoint”. As similar, Thawne surfaced as The Flash, ended Iris courting/ made her his “ lightning rod”, forming a platoon that also included Chester, Frost, Cecile, and Ryan Choi, aka The Snippet. (Allegra, we were told, made tracks for London some time agone, after she and Chester both mishandled their first date.)

Darhk, seeing that Barry was telling the verity ( including how Damien offered herself to save son Nora), agreed to help, though Thawne managed to stay one step ahead.
In the end, it came down to a standoff between Barry and Eobard, with Iris — seeing time and again that she and “ Allen” partake a history/ connection — rather using an prostrating shaft gun on her fiancé. Barry also went around the world to reach Mach 20 and open a time gate/ Undo Rear-Flashpoint, although this would risk literally breaking the world (ergo, Armageddon). Barry pulled it off — with a important- demanded final boost from “ lightning rod” Iris — returning to the proper 2021, where he entered Despero on Thawne’s grand ruse and also jumped on the phone with a veritably important alive Joe West.
Thawne is still not down for the count. Rather, in a final scene, he fitted himself into the new Rear- Flash suit and entered the Time Vault. “ Nothing uses time against me‘he whizzed. “ I ’ll change what’s going to be,” he told Gideon, “ and you ’ll help me Speaking to TVLine about the big reveals of part 4, Tom Cavanagh wondered whether Thawne Real scolded a little Barry Allen. “ I do n’t see that passing,” says the … Flash alum offered. “ He that I’m may have uttered those words, but … that’s all I ’m going to say about that Cavanagh also had some fun when he conceded that “ Armageddon” was a bit of a misnomer since there really was a Rear-Flashpoint at play. “’ Uh, let’s see …. Tom will be wearing the Flash suit, so what’s an applicable name for this event? Armageddon! ’” he said with further than a little affront and a hearty laugh. “ It’s extremely unflattering if you ’re me, but it’s also largely applicable.”
Cavanagh got a little more serious, also sounded to suggest that Thawne’s coming move might not relatively be in the fifth and final occasion of “ Armageddon” ( vented coming Tuesday as the downtime homestretch).
“ Grant Gustin on The Flash is similar a light, and you ca n’t have a light without a darkness to put it in — but you still want to be suitable to see some effects,” Cavanagh explained. “ L (as Eobard) like to pace myself, let me put it this way. Read in it what you want That indicates that whatever Thawne does next in vengeance,‘I do n’t want it to come an moment, each- consuming darkness. I like to play effects off a bit and give myself a place to go,” Cavanagh added. “ How are you?” Which for generalities!”
