Additionally, any speedster he believed could be a challenge to him he would seek out and kill. Before arriving on each Earth he would possess somebody and under the alias 'Alchemy' would rally followers and would seek out and bestow metahuman powers upon anyone willing to serve him, then laying waste to each Earth. Savitar then started travelling through the Multiverse and on each Earth traveled back to ancient times to spread the myth that he was the first speedster. He also acquired the Philosopher's stone an object originating from the Speed Force, capable of creating metahumans. After this Barry came to the realization that Savitar was in fact his own future self and accepted his destiny, renaming himself 'Savitar' after the Hindu God of Motion. Barry then designed a suit of armor to contain the energy released when he runs and protect himself from being ripped apart, drawing inspiration from Savitar's armor. However he became so fast that prolonged running would start to rip his body apart and one of these instances left a large scar on the side of his face. Travelling through time and space Barry began physically augmenting his speed to unimaginable levels that surpassed that of his prime self. Grief stricken from Iris' death and isolated from his family and friends Barry was driven insane and sought to end his pain, coming to a realization that 'God feels no pain' and aspired to become one. After surviving his encounter Barry was shunned by his prime self, Joe, Wally and Cisco for not being the 'true Barry Allen', and was disregarded as a time aberration and a 'disposable hero'.

However the prime Barry failed to defeat Savitar who slaughtered all the time remnants except for this one. +Ballsy reveal -But is it ultimately the right move? 7.Savitar was one of the many time remnants of the original Barry Allen/The Flash from a possible future in the year 2020 or 2021 in the Post-Flashpoint timeline, created to help him fight his enemy Savitar in vengeance for killing their fiancee Iris West. Overall, I have a hard time commenting on my feelings for this episode without hearing the reasoning behind the big reveal, but it will sure to be something to get everyone talking. And really, I guess there was never any real reasoning for him being the 'Future Flash' anyway. But his absence really just made it more and more obvious that Wally wasn't going to be Savitar after all. That just felt like a complete copout to not have one of the two speedsters not on the same earth when Savitar and Killer Frost are still at large. The only thing that really stuck out to me was Wally's absence. It all felt like screen time being used up until the big reveal. If I'm being honest, I really didn't care for any of the episode aside from the ending reveal. The damsel in distress this week was Cecile, Joe's newly found love. Most of the episode dealt with the aftermath of having Killer Frost on the loose and Savitar's 'plans' for her. It's funny, the reveal only took up a few minutes of screen time but I find myself talking about it more than the actual episode itself. Could it be that Savitar is the version of Barry that was supposed to exist if it wasn't for Barry shifting the timeline in the first place? Perhaps then, I would find the twist worth it. We saw Barry create flashpoint in the beginning of the season (in turn creating Savitar). Ultimately, the explanation may line up with what this season has presented us. Either way, the decision to have a future version of Barry is sure to be one of controversy.

Could it be that the show-runners once never planned on having anyone underneath the suit and then changed it to a more approachable looking appearance once they decided on Barry? I don't necessarily believe this is the case, but it doesn't totally make sense why the change was made. But mid- way though the season that was changed for a blend of CGI and a practical suit. Think about it, Savitar was once an all CGI-being without any real sign of practical effects. It's also interesting to think about whether or not this was always the plan from the beginning. But I really need to hear the reasoning for future Barry turning evil before I make my ultimate decision either way. The idea of having Barry being the villain of the show is intriguing because he does cause a ton of unnecessary chaos while he's speeding around the city. I actually am a fan of the concept on paper. I understand they were going for a different approach considering we knew who the villains of season 1 and 2 were a whole lot earlier, but this felt weirder than it should have. On one hand, the reveal of having future Barry probably would have been more interesting if it was revealed earlier in the season. So, we finally found out who's underneath the mask and armor of Savitar, the god of speed.
