The Flash Almost Gets His Powers Back, Almost

The Flash has gotten pretty boring since Barry lost his powers, so Zoom decided to spice things up by popping into Earth 1 to execute some run-of-the-mill homicidal-maniac-taking-over-the-world maneuvers.

Since Zoom didn’t have to worry about the Flash stopping him, he declared himself ruler of Central City. He took over the police station and ordered the cops: “Tell everyone the city is mine, and anyone that disobeys me will meet their end.” He then killed the cops the following day on live television.

After witnessing the murders, Barry decided he had to get his powers back. He climbed into a machine that Dr. Wells built, in the hopes that it would recreate the particle accelerator explosion that gave him his powers in the first place. Unfortunately, Dr. Wells may have overdone it a bit, because Barry was vaporized. Adding insult to injury, Zoom popped in to ridicule Barry’s friends, saying, “You thought you could give Flash his speed back? Well done. You’ve killed him instead.”

The Flash airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. on CW.
