Just watched the preview of the upcoming episodes again. Anyone know who that pale creepy bald cenobite-looking dude is?
Okay, I think the reason why the Flash is listed as "missing" in the news article that Wells keeps checking up on from time to time is because the Barry from 2024 is the one that went back and chased after Eobard into the past and when Nora was killed, it caused future Barry to vanish.
Unfortunately, that really doesn't amount to much at all when you really get down to it. It's the same with Batman, his tactician skills and planning are really only going to help him only so much against meta humans like Reverse Flash.
But on the other token, any speedster has to be dumbed down in comics to actually be able to be beaten. It's just an unfortunate consequence of the kind of character they are. If you write a character like Flash to his full potential...he's essentially unbeatable. Hence why they have to come up with idiotic reasons for him to get "tricked" by his bad guys in order for there to be any drama.
So while the "normal human who has experience" on his side thing is kind of silly when they use it as a way to show how a regular human can compete with metas, the writers have to wrench believably for someone like Flash to honestly have any trouble fighting some of his villains at all. So I suppose it all sort of evens out.

There's a potential spoiler in there I didn't notice the first time I watched it.Seems like Eddie will turn on the "good guys" at some point, which doesn't come as much of a surprise considering his consanguineous link to the reverse-Flash.
