welcome back everyone is Charlie this is going to be my flash season 6 episode 2
video there was a whole bunch of crisis on Infinite Earths moments foreshadowing
and big teasers for even the back half of the season so we'll break it all down
there's a new round of that flash ring giveaway - all you have to do to enter
is be a subscriber and leave your best theory about crisis on the video careful
for spoilers if you have not seen the episode will do top 10 and Easter
eggs so starting with number 10 blood work uses his powers for the first time
unwittingly but it pretty much works the same way it does in the comics he's able
to control the blood of other people he doesn't investigate and find out
what's going on till the end of the episode but the way they're playing the
character is pretty much the way they played the character on the heroes TV
show where he starts out as this good person wanting to help people but
through his actions is slowly pushed to violence so all that's gonna play out in
the first half of the season but he's only meant to be around for the first
half of the season I think we actually got a teaser for the villain the second
half of the season in the episode - there's a whole subplot with
frost they give her a Ray Palmer designed in a night cocktail that's
gonna help her the rest of the season it's just gonna make it easier for the
actress danielle Panabaker to walk around as frost
without having to wear those contacts in her eyes the entire time I hundred
percent think that plot point is just to make it more comfortable for the actress
and has nothing to do with her actually fitting in with normal people but number
nine they introduce allegra garcia new character i don't know how long she's
going to be around because she's obviously sticks around at the end with
that internship but she is a comic book character from the titans comics the way
her cousin manipulates the electromagnetic spectrum to heat stuff
up is actually what her comic book powers are so they gave that to her
cousin and they made her powers controlling radio waves that'll probably
come in handy if she comes back for another episode when she's investigating
stuff for iris in the central city citizen number 8 Barry finally makes
himself a version of giddy and everyone wondering if he was going to create
giddy in this season but I think the mobile version of Gideon is what they
were talking about there might be a more advanced version of that that he
upgrades later this season but for now I think that's what that was him just
created the mobile version that he can carry around with himself and I'm still
really happy that Morena Baccarin is doing the voice of the character but
anytime Barry says that he's gonna travel to the future without telling
team flash and he's not wearing his flash costume you automatically know
something terrible is going to happen so number seven the antimatter barrier when
he approaches December 10th the crisis state he just bounces right off of this
wall that they later learned is pure antimatter as if the entire multiverse
has been converted to antimatter energy and that's why he can't use the Speed
Force to travel through it enter Jay Garrick but as you've seen so far on all
the TV shows the way they're playing crisis right now is if at this moment in
present day they're still going to lose in the future until something changes
they kept trying to say that during the episode will change the future will do
something different we can't I have to die
so part of the big twist of crisis this year is going to be finding a way out of
that situation I'm not expecting to have a really easy answer but we'll start to
find out what that is through arrow because it sounds like Oliver Queen is
going to do something that will help save the multiverse so even if the flash
does wind up dying he will do something that will allow him to come back it's
gonna get way twistier before it gets way simpler but it's gonna be a couple
more episodes before we have more evidence for a really good theory number
six welcome back Jay Garrick formerly known as the flash of earth 3 it kind of
hurt me to hear that but remember last season he teased that he'd be training a
new speedster made it sound like it was a female speedster to take his place but
we don't know who that is yet he jokingly references the coffee cup a
little bit when he's talking about Barry traveling into the future what are you
doing time-traveling kid but then twist says you probably did the right thing
when he says he's been detecting antimatter signatures all over the
multiverse for the past year what he's talking about is the anti-monitor in his
servants popping up all over the multiverse trying to influence people
remember how the monitor has been traveling around like a genie popping up
telling Oliver you need to come help me we have to go to these different places
to assemble heroes and start working to fight the anti-monitor
the anti-monitor is doing the same thing with his own minions this map is
beautiful I hope that they sell a version of this it'd be really cool to
get a giant printout to this but you see pretty much all the earths that we've
been to before marked there's a whole bunch of Easter eggs here zoom and
enhance here's breachers earth here supergirls earth 38 jay garrick's earth
3 wells the gray way over here on the side you see the source wall around the
multiverse you see Earth's that are designated way higher than 52 like earth
221 here I might even have to do a separate video just for the Easter eggs
on this there are so many there's even an earth with a question mark
unknown earth so they're just trying to let you know there's gonna be a couple
big reveals during crisis on Infinite Earths I wouldn't be surprised if the
question mark earth winds up being the Smallville earth with Tom Welling
Superman but I have a feeling that some of these will be revealed during the
crossover where it's as earth destroyed in 1986 it's either earth 75 or earth 15
that it's referring to it's not totally clear that was the date when the crisis
on Infinite Earths comic book was originally published worlds will live
worlds will die so the same thing will happen during this year's crossover they
will actually blow up some of the Earth's in the multiverse the other big
Easter Egg that really stands out here is the fattiest brown one up top here if
your big comic book reader you recognize daddy is brown as mr. miracle so they
might be teasing some special new gods stuff happening this season because of
crisis on Infinite Earths it feels like those are really huge
characters and this is such a big event you would want to invoke them somehow
and the arrowverse in this way the fact that there's a red arrow pointing to
earth 2 is actually something that they address on the arrow TV show that'll be
part of my trailer video tomorrow because they do a whole bunch of
multiverse stuff during the arrow episode but number 5 berry meets another
version of his mother and almost passes out in the process he kind of mouths the
words mom and it's almost the same reaction that he had when he saw Jay
Garrick for the first time dad I'm not your dad Barry the reason why Jay
Garrick doesn't know that Joan looks just like Barry's mother is probably
just because Barry didn't tell him and Jay Garrick never met Barry's parents so
he wouldn't know that he married basically the same woman as his
doppelganger did on earth 1 but like I said during all the trailer videos that
I did she's basically meant to be a version of Tina McGee the scientist
that's helping Jay Garrick but obviously what he's doing now is mostly research
and less of being a speedster elongated man tells this weird story about how his
mother dated a trapeze artist that could be a reference to the flying Grayson's
because there have been rumors about Titans appearing during crisis on
Infinite Earths this year but it's just a rumor
moving under number 4 Barry uses Jay Garrick's device to send his
consciousness into the future so obviously they're using his helmet so it
just looks awake cooller him wearing jay garrick's helmet
and sending his consciousness through the antimatter barrier but you can kind
of see the way he visualizes it he's actually running this is all just
happening in his mind though so what he's witnessing here is the antimatter
wave of the anti monitors powers detonating consuming everything
converting all positive matter in the multiverse into antimatter he comes out
and they get the Avengers Infinity Ward Doctor Strange quote one one time line
in billions where we survived because I died he makes his peace with it by the
end of the episode but then he says we have to start preparing everyone for a
world without the flash which is a reference for world without a Superman
which is the name of the comic book that they publish after the death of Superman
they had a big funeral for him that was called funeral for a friend then you had
a world without a Superman then you had reign of the Superman they have the
funny lady gaga joke when he wakes up to John reading him the poem by William
Knox a flash of the lightning it's a beautiful poem but a flash of the
lightning is also the title of the comic book issue where the flash died during
crisis on Infinite Earths they even referenced this comic book panel here
where he's sort of disintegrating into nothingness after he destroys the
anti-monitor his gun by running so fast that's what this is meant to be he's
witnessing his own death they did a pretty good job of trying to sync up the
themes of all the different storylines like Joe West gives in the explainer
later about his badges their emblems of the symbols of strength were charged
with charged like the flash is literally charged with electricity when you hear
the call of duty you have to be willing to make the sacrifice this is a brief
Game of Thrones reference where cisco makes fun of frost calling her a
white walker they try to have this whole comedic subplot about her trying to
learn to be a normal person the picture that she's trying to draw though is
actually a representation of the goddess that her father believed in that she's
based on the sort of mythological northern figure so it's frost
trying to address the grief that she has over the death of her father but number
three really huge teaser for a comic book villain group black hole so when
they're learning about Allegra's cousin's body being taken by a mystery
group we don't know what happened you see the symbol on their jackets it's the
symbol of black hole from the flash rebirth comic books they're able to take
her cousin down but the whole point here is just in setting up the concept that
there is a secret organization if it's called black hole
that's using metas to their advantage I don't know how much is going to be like
the comic book version of black hole because in the comics their main goal
was to exploit the Speed Force and they were in this secret alliance with
Gorilla Grodd I don't know if they're gonna be doing any of that stuff they
might just be setting up black hole as this evil organization they might also
choose to introduce Ryan because he's one of the big evil speedsters that's
part of that group number two big teaser for future things to come potentially
they talk about ultraviolet light it's 80 times faster than your top speed
berry in the comics colors of lightning usually denote different levels of speed
so the idea that the ultraviolet wavelength is 80 times faster than
normal lightning remember flash utilizes
lightning speed force dark matter energy might come in handy when Barry is trying
to save the day during crisis on Infinite Earths so that might come back
around just pay attention to that the whole concept of him traveling way
beyond his normal levels of speed Jay Garrick takes off back to earth 3 with
Joan they're just letting you know that they'll come back later this season
there will be more Jay Garrick during flash season 6 and yes Wally West will
come back but it's gonna be during the second half of the season he will not be
around for crisis on Infinite Earths number one though obviously the
post-credits scene blood work studying the effects of his abilities when his
victim turns into a zombie in search to go I'll Hulk on every one so it's gonna
be the villain of next week's episode or one of the villains the whole idea
though is that blood work himself is capable of controlling these constructs
so I think that he'll probably learned that at some point during the episode oh
wait he's not fighting me I have the ability to control this giant Gollum but
post all your theories in the comments below I know you probably have a
thousand questions about all the crisis on Infinite Earths scene so I'll try to
address that during my trailer video for episode 3 tomorrow and arrow is back
tonight arrow season 8 episode 1 I'll try to include any big crisis stuff
during my trailer video tomorrow including that Batman teaser that they
released earlier today I'll name a giveaway winner when I post my trailer
video tomorrow everybody click here for my flash episode 1 video and everybody
