Meeting Barry Allen

In 2016, Barry Allen entered Madame Xanadu's tent in order to investigate Hocus Pocus. Despite initially believing she was a charlatan, Barry was surprised when Madame Xanadu revealed his name.

Later, Madame Xanadu teleported Barry to her home and advised him in defeating Hocus Pocus. Madame Xanadu also gave Barry a card that she could not read because it detailed a far future.

Crisis of 2018

In 2018, Madame Xanadu, alongside all her other doppelgängers in the multiverse, experienced the death of her Earth-27A counterpart at the hands of the Anti-Matter Man. Under this strain, she went to the Central City Police Department to find Barry and request his help. Madame Xanadu was brought to S.T.A.R. Labs in order for Team Flash to stabilize her vitals. Later, the Phantom Stranger went to visit Madame Xanadu in her bed before she fell asleep.
