I loved it, like I love all of the Flash episodes. But I feel like it laid out the plot too easily to see. If you want to go in and read the new newspaper article Nora pulled up in the time vault, it gives away a lot. It's almost definitely the Crisis on Infinite Earths that Flash disappears in now, and some light reading on the DC Wiki will tell you that Cameron Mahkent is Icicle, an ice-villain from the Rogues Gallery of the JSA, which would link him pretty well to Killer Frost.

So good stuff about it? Gridlock is possibly the greatest name Cisco has ever come up with. It works on a lot of levels. The Easter Eggs are glorious for true DC Geeks, including Ryan Choi, Happy Harbor, and the Flash Museum. Overall, a great episode!

I'm worried that the inclusion of Nora, Barry, and Iris's relationship will move the focus away from some other of my favorite characters like Joe and Cecille. (I really hope that they don't die, please and thank you, CW). Anyway, really excited to see where the series goes, especially with the new villain! Conlon94

Barry Allen aka the Flash seems to have once had during the Crisis of Infinite Earths had rather than completely disappear from the comics in sacrificing to attempt running fast enough to trysaving his own universe and multiverse and instead ran from a universe and multiverse within the DC comics Megaverse ran through the universal, multiversal, and megaversal barrier from the DC comics megaverse into the universe of Earth-TRN242 within the Marvel comics Megaverse. And as result of the cosmically overwhelming traumatic experience acquired Amnesia causing him to lose his true secret identity and name. He both called himself Buried Alien and eventually/developed gave himself a whole new alias "Fast Forward" he never reacquired his memories. So that is why he had never returned to his original home universe, muktiverse, and megaverse. In adjacent to a brand new replacement Barry Allen being created along with the creation of the new multiverse. So there you go DC comics fans there is the answer to your question of where did the Barry Allen of the Crisis of Infinite Earths disappeared to.
