The Flash: 10 Questions Season 7 MUST Answer
2. Who Is The REAL Godspeed?
The mere mention of the name 'Godspeed' is more than enough to send shivers down the spines of comic book fans - so much so that we were all super excited about his arrival in Season 5 because the show finally decided to adapt him. Unfortunately, as great as his debut episode was (and as great as he looked), the character himself was portrayed as little more than a faux speedster who became a villain-of-the-week.
However, a little timeline rewriting ultimately resulted in four faux Godspeed drones making their presence felt in the present before a fifth futuristic speedster surfaced late last season. Though it seemed like the actual August Heart for a moment, we soon discovered that he was little more than another drone - this one, however, warned that the one who sent him wanted infinite velocity.
It's pretty clear that the show is building up to the arrival of the real Godspeed. Yes, it could be a red herring for the return of Thawne or another evil speedster, but it's absolutely imperative that the show follows through and officially introduces us to a new August Heart. It's finally time for Godspeed to run and it's about time that we learn what he's really up to.
