The Flash Season 3: 15 Things You Need To Know About Flashpoint

15. All Change For The Allens

When Flashpoint begins, Barry Allen wakes up to what he believes is just another regular day. Little does the Scarlet Speedster know that all around him has changed.

The biggest immediate shocker to Barry is that his mother Nora is actually still alive. Considering how much of a huge impact on his life Nora’s death had, this is a total game-changer for the Fastest Man Alive. Well, apart from he’s no longer the Faster Man Alive, for another revelation is that Barry has absolutely no superpowers.

Another change-up is that Barry’s father Henry didn’t actually die in prison as was previously depicted, and he’d instead actually died of a heart attack supposedly three years before this strangely switched-up present day.

Sure, Barry may not have his powers and his father is still dead (albeit not having died in prison), but at least he’s got his long-dead mother back in his life. Everything’s great from here on out, surely? Well everything’s certainly “different”, is probably a better way to describe things.
