[@envoyeli2892]

As evil as Eobard's plan is, when you think about it it's also kinda sad. Despite how much he hates Barry, deep down more than anything Eobard still admires the Flash. He said in The Flash 2x11 "I was obsessed with you. For so long I wanted to be the Flash" and in recent comics he said that ruining Barry's life was honestly the best way he could think of to get Barry to spend time with him and give him attention. Thawne may be evil, but more than anything he's just a sad man who wishes more than anything to be able to spend time with his idol and be like him. And this scene proves that no matter how deep Eobard's hatred is for Barry, he still wants to be just like his idol, it's just the fact that when he learned of his destiny to be the Reverse Flash he couldn't handle it so it drove him to villainy.

@@ВардотКапрелло The only reason I can ignore that they chose Tom as RF and not Matt, Is because it makes sense within the story. Eobard still steals the identity of Harrison Wells, He still makes the Particle Accelerator explode. The only difference is apperantly he disclosed his true identity to team Flash afterwards. It makes sense he is wearing the face of Harrison Wells because otherwise timeline would've erased him the moment he killed Barry as a child.

[@ВардотКапрелло]

@@Kronosfobi Well no. First appeareance of Wells-Thawne happened in Crisis X. They never explained why Wells-Thawne is still alive. The answer from Thawne was:"Time travel is hard to explain" or something like that. It more makes sense, if some of time remnants of Thawne figured out that something wrong with Timeline. There is only 2 explanations, Crisis X Thawne is Thawne from season 1(it doesn't make sense, because he lost his speed and permanently erased) or he took one of Harrison Wells's face, still wrong, because he take Wells's face due to his plan. Simple answer is this: "Its much cheapier to take Cavanaugh and using him as other Wellses and Thawne".

That’s exactly what I was thinking. We saw in the Elseworlds crossover that Barry has loads of repressed anger he can draw on. But Eobard doesn’t have many positive emotions. Then again, Barry at 5% and working with the Negative Speed Force was still faster than Eobard this whole episode.

This is terrifying Edit: now what exactly was dion's idea here, send Barry to the future without speed and get him killed?

[@official_wonnie]

Dion himself didn't even know that it was Reverse Flash because Thawne uses a negative still force and speed force and hides therefore from Dion

Did someone notice that it was a subtle nod to what Thawne tried to do in the comics? He once tried to take Barry's place and being struck by the lightning that gave the Flash his powers. Problem? He started to be erased from existence because of his status being dependant upon Barry's, so he instead ran from his lab and failed. In short, Armageddon showed us what if Thawne succeded what he failed to do in the comics.

[@nuriman2558]

so, does this mean that in this timeline, thawne has the norm speed force while barry has the negative one? wouldn't that make him immune to timeline changes or smth?

[@spadesofpaintstudios1719]

Writing is fickle with this show

[@Tubeguy46]

They're both immune at this point

[@coals6262]

Possibly but more than likely not like he implied it to Barry who at the time would’ve done anything to save Nora, and Thawne told him the negative speed force would save her possibly just as a paradox kinda like how he survived after Eddie shot himself as a remnant. But we see the effects in season 1 he gets stuck in the past after loosing the majority of his speed from killing Barry’s mom making him not become the flash until he created the flash earlier this time. Then Eddie died he got erased but a copy that went back and killed Barrys mother was left for the paradox not to occur chicken and egg. As technically he ran back got stuck and Eddie was still alive to be his ancestor up until he shot himself erasing Thawne. Season 3 him not using his speed was helping him not change with the timeline as fast from flashpoint. But this Barry was killed as a child before he had his speed meaning there’s nothing to protect him as you can’t give speed to a corpse. Creating a flashpoint which are major shifts in the timeline vs smaller inconsequential changes.

[@bitchface235]

@@coals6262 how could he make him reverse flash if he killed him as a child? Shit just doesn't make sense and they clearly started at the end and worked their way back when it came to writing this.

It’s very cool to see how Eobard learned from killing Barry’s mother causing him to get stuck in time so that when he changes the timeline he does it smarter so he can manipulate it like a chess board.

[@RelocatedRedbird]

So, Thawne took Barry's place... Which has the Wells disguise making even less sense. This *definitely* should have had Thawne in his original form, i.e. Matt Letscher reprising the role.

[@endamcnabola]

Tom was supposed to leave the show for good after S6. But I guess they couldn't get Matt back.

[@smarvysmarv8735]

Here’s what I don’t understand. Thawne mentioned that he travelled to 2013 and made sure that he was the one struck by lightning instead of Barry. Considering that he said 2013, I’m assuming that this is the same bolt from the particle accelerator that his younger self caused that year. So does this mean that there were two people with Well’s face during that time. Did Thawne fight himself?

[@djsungjinwoo3839]

Man I was like Barry is reverse flash and this guy is flash.

Now I can see how Childish Thawn actually is. In season 1 barry was like a baby chick in his hand and he could control everything. but now that barry is actually superior than Thawn, he just wants to win and fknd every way to win just to get the laugh on barry’s face.
