‘The Flash’ Season 8 Preview

When we last saw the intrepid superheroes of “The Flash,” Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) was desperately searching for his missing wife, Iris West-Allen (Candice Patton). In the season seven finale, Eobard Thawne (Tom Cavanagh) suddenly showed up and incapacitated Heart (Karan Oberoi) and tried to kill Barry, vowing that he would become faster than the Flash. Kramer (Carmen Moore) also found out that she is a metahuman with incredible mimicry powers and Barry and Iris renewed their wedding vows.

When season eight picks up, six months have passed and everything is quiet in Central City… until the arrival of a new threat.

The CW press release reads:

After stopping the Godspeed War last season, it’s six months later and Barry and Iris West-Allen are now at the top of their game — both in their careers as superhero and reporter and as a devoted couple. But when the powerful alien Despero unleashes near annihilation on Central City, The Flash and his team — Caitlin Snow/Frost (Danielle Panabaker), Meta-Empath Cecile Horton (Danielle Nicolet), the light-powered meta Allegra Garcia (Kayla Compton), brilliant tech-nerd Chester P. Runk (Brandon McKnight) and retired detective Joe West (Jesse L. Martin) — must once again defy impossible odds to save the day. But their victory is short-lived as two new threats rise from the ashes of “Armageddon,” one of which will unleash unforeseen horrors into the lives of Barry and his teammates… and change Team Flash forever.

The season eight premiere episode is titled “Armageddon, Part 1” and its description reads, “When a powerful alien threat arrives on Earth under mysterious circumstances, Barry, Iris and the rest of the team are pushed to their limits in a desperate battle to save the world.”

Then on November 23 comes episode two, titled “Armageddon, Part 2,” whose description reads, “Despero warns The Flash that great tragedies will lead to Armageddon; Barry doubles down on proving his innocence, but a devastating revelation pushes him to seek counsel from Black Lightning.”

The eighth season will begin with a five-episode crossover event bringing together all of The CW’s superhero properties: “Batwoman,” “Arrow,” “Black Lightning” and “Legends of Tomorrow.”

“The Flash” airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. Eastern and Pacific times on The CW.
