Captain Cold Returning To Flash
Things are finally coming to a head with Flash this season, the upcoming episode will finally reveal the identity of Savitar, which will no doubt cause wrinkles through the show for years to come. But also, we’re getting ever closer to the season finale which is likely going to be very intense and very impactful.
That’s not to say the episodes leading up to that won’t also be impact, for a new synopsis (revealed by ComicBookResources) states that a fan-favorite character is coming back: Captain Cold:
“With only 24 hours left until Savitar murders Iris (Candice Patton), Barry (Grant Gustin) struggles to save the woman he loves and makes the choice to use any means necessary to do so. Realizing he has one option left to save her, The Flash turns to Captain Cold (Wentworth Miller) for help.”
This episode will be the penultimate episode, and it’s clear the writers are going deep into the well to show just how desperate Barry Allen is. The interesting thing here of course is that Captain Cold is dead. He died at the end of Season 01 of Legends of Tomorrow. And though he came back in Season 02 of LOT (as a time-displaced version of himself), he was returned without memories of the adventures he had. So the question is…is Barry going to do the same thing? He knows that Cold is dead, and though it’s obvious why he’d go to him for help, how is he going to pull this off?
Guess we’ll find out on May 16th.
