The Flash Season 3: Barry Allen will Forget His Powers



When The Flash season 3 returns, the events of Flashpoint will change everything we know about the Scarlet Speedster. In the finale of season 2, Barry Allen made the decision to travel back in time to save his mother from certain death, changing the entire timeline as we know it. Even though series star Grant Gustin already told us that the Flashpoint story arc won’t take up the entire season, we can expect a huge fallout with permanent ramifications, even bleeding over into the rest of the Flarrowverse.

The Comic-Con 2016 trailer offered a few glimpses of what’s to come on The Flash season 3: Wally West will become Kid Flash, Cisco Ramon is “the richest man in America,” and Barry Allen is a complete stranger to both his adopted father Joe and his best friend Iris West. Barry also seems to be having some serious memory problems in this new alternate universe that he created. But, at least his parents are still alive, right?

In the most recent episode of DC All Access, Grant Gustin explains that his memories aren’t the only thing Barry is having trouble with, but that he will also forget his speedster powers:

“In the same sense that he’s forgetting a lot of memories, it means he’s forgetting his powers too. It’s like he’s having a full ‘Back to the Future’ moment, where essentially his hand is disappearing in front of him.”
