Eventually, Barry managed to revive the original Speed force with the help of his wife Iris, but that too came with a big cost. With the return of The Flash with its seventh season, the Flash continued his attempts to create an artificial Speed force but that too failed. As a result, the Flash lost his speed and was unable to stop the villain of the Flash season 6, Eva Mcculoch a.k.a. But to join the battle, the Flash had to take an energy boost from the Spectre which eventually resulted in the death of the Speed force. All the Earths in the multiverse merged into one and came to be known as Earth Prime and several lost characters came back to life. The “Crisis On Infinite Earths” was a turning point in the Arrowverse and carved several changes in its storyline. However, the showrunners pulled a sneaky one on us and brought back a character as a villain who anyone would never have thought to have any evil intent- “The Speed Force (Nora Allen). There were numerous speculations about who would be the big bad for season 7 of The Flash, some people thought it would be Godspeed after his appearance in the previous seasons, some thought it would be the Red Death after he was mentioned in season 5, even the debut of Cobalt Blue was also expected.

She may also have water or whether powers, but we’ll have to see if that comes into the plot. Calm and empathetic, Khione is open to discussing tough subjects and takes people as they are whilst also providing sound advice and someone to listen without judgement. She has a completely different personality. Instead, Khione was born and now it’s her turn to become a fully realized person with her own autonomy and agency, not a stand in for Caitlin or Frost. She made her choice and it was to attempt to bring her sister back. When Caitlin went into the machine, she was aware that only one person would come out of it. He’d left it up to the girls to decide how they’d exist in the world and, for a good portion of Caitlin’s life that meant her operating without her sister’s input until her powers began to manifest. In the past, he’d been trying to figure out a way to make Caitlin immune to ALS and ended up creating a split personality instead who’d later go on to be Frost. Khione’s name comes from Caitlin’s father. In the meantime, we’ll be getting to know Khione who’d previously introduced herself as Snow at the top of the episode. So we could see Caitlin again in season 9, whether that’s in the present day or flashbacks we’ll have to wait in see. In Panabaker’s words: “I do like to joke, ‘Nobody’s ever really dead on these shows!’” I will say that it was surprising for me, especially so fresh on the heels of losing Frost…Due to the fact that all of a sudden, our episode order got reduced and we had such a shorter season, I do think everyone’s sort of forced to grieve Caitlin quickly.īut, as fans of this universe know, nobody’s ever truly gone.

In an interview with TVLine, actress Danielle Panabaker had the following to say: But is she really gone? Here’s what we know. And, as Mark explained it, killed Caitlin in the process. However, the machine didn’t revive Frost instead it birthed a character who initially went by the name Snow. Assisted by Mark, Frost’s boyfriend, she managed to recreate the necessary machine to resurrect her other half. We last saw Caitlin in season 8 when she resumed looking for a way to bring her sister, Frost, back from the dead after Barry had destroyed her efforts the first time. The Flash season 9 began with a fun Groundhog’s day episode that brought Westallen closer together but episode 2, “Hear No Evil,” struck a somber tone as it was revealed that Caitlin had been replaced by a new character bearing her resemblance.
