User blog comment:ReverseFlash 2024/Future Newspaper - How does the date make sense?/@comment-185.58.19.238-20150429173355

Well, my theory is that in the 25th Century, Eobard finds a time capsule, with The Flash Suit, instructions on how to create Gideon, and the newspaper. Eobard becomes obsessed, and uses the same chemicals to become a member of the Speed Force. He reads the paper, discovering he's destined to be a villain. Thus, he time travels and, well, what the show has done.
