Small flaw in that is that we've seen Wells flat out murder people in cold blood. As much as we'd all like Wells to be doing this 'for the greater good' I don't think he is. He's much more interested in using Barry as a lab rat to regain/gain his own super speed.

I still don't see Wells as Reverse Flash. As someone pointed out, Wells has red lightning when he moves, whereas when Barry battled with the other speedster, he had yellow lightning. Now unless the suit changes the colour of Well's lightning, which is entirely possible, I don't see how he can be Reverse Flash. He also seems to suffer from some sort of nausea or something like that if he uses his super-speed too much, as we saw in this episode.

Least Flash did in this episode what he should have done last time. Ran fast at the bad guy who has no actual special powers and disarm his magic gun/weaponry.

Ah but that actually didn't work. If it wasn't for what happened he would have been done for with that frequency thing.

No... Barry has a Red suit/Yellow lightning. Reverse Flash... being the reverse of Barry has a Yellow Suit/Red lightning... just as we saw Wells to have...

Oh...

nicktay2605 · 2 Feb 2015 at 23:41

Oh, my bad. In which case yeah he probably is Reverse Flash.

Wonder how he's supposed to fight a super intelligent, mind controlling, telepathic and telekinetic gorilla when he struggles with normal run of the mill crooks lol

I do love this show, hey I'm a big Flash fan full stop, but it's still annoying me that no other meta human, so far, is a good guy. Was Barry destined for sainthood before he became the flash or something?

That's most likely because any good, decent people who got zapped with meta powers probably aren't using them to go on a violent rampage. Like I've said before, that innocent little junior school teacher who found out that she can now control people with her mind is most likely using her powers for nothing more sinister than keeping her unruly pupils in line in class. As such, she isn't coming to the attention of the authorities or he Flash.

Those that are using their new found meta powers to go on sprees of mayhem and violence were already of a criminal bent beforehand.

That's just my take on it anyway.

Err... Firestorm/Ronnie is a good guy. He hasn't been in it much yet but he has storylines over the next few weeks including a team up one with The Flash, The Atom and likely Arrow.

So many questions...

Good episode tho.. How many episodes are planned for season 1?

It got a back order renewal which means it should get a full season of 22-23 episodes. It has also had a series renewal so we will get a season two as well.

Lol my thoughts exactly

Westie · 18 Feb 2015 at 05:44

wow.. that ending...

Cyclone · 18 Feb 2015 at 09:58

Wow exactly :eek:

What started off as a so so series, is getting better each week.

ElliorR · 18 Feb 2015 at 15:52

Very enjoyable but a shame a cool metahuman has gone. Also......

I didn't want Wells to be Reverse Flash and killing Barry's mum, though that hasn't been shown to be the case yet but it's not looking good.

Dr Delphi · 18 Feb 2015 at 16:34

Its definitely getting better, one of the surprise hits of this year I think!

ZXSpectrum · 18 Feb 2015 at 22:07

He's only gone for 3 episodes (if that), there's a big team up episode with him, the flash, the ATOM and Felicity coming up.

Pretty sure either FIRESTORM or The ATOM are headed for their own spin off anyway, or both.
