Young Barry Overuses Time Travel

Things take a sudden turn for the worse in The Flash’s third act when both Batman and Supergirl die battling General Zod and his Kryptonian forces. The younger Barry Allen variant immediately uses his time travel powers to undo this, only for Batman and Supergirl to die again, albeit differently. It soon becomes clear to both the main Barry Allen and the viewers that Batman and Supergirl’s deaths, as well as Zod’s victory, are inevitable events in this timeline. The younger Barry Allen refuses to accept this, and his repeated attempts to redo the battle and defeat General Zod show his descent into violent desperation.

Dark Flash Appears In Barry's Nightmare

The main DCEU’s Barry Allen also has a nightmare of Dark Flash before he departs the Batcave to battle General Zod. This may be a minor reference to Barry’s own DCEU debut, in which he appears to Bruce Wayne to warn him about an undefined (at the time) future threat. There is no dialogue in Barry Allen’s nightmare of Dark Flash, but it is yet another parallel to Barry himself, foreshadowing that the mysterious entity is a version of Barry Allen from another timeline.

Young Barry Overhears Bruce & Barry

The young Barry Allen variant is the main source of The Flash’s comic relief, but his first truly serious moment occurs when he overhears a conversation between the displaced main DCEU Barry Allen and the Michael Keaton iteration of Batman. Not knowing that his younger counterpart is eavesdropping, Barry reveals to Bruce that he comes from another timeline where his mother was murdered when he was only a child and that his reality merged with Bruce’s due to his tampering. The younger Barry is quietly distraught to learn that his mother was supposed to die years ago, setting him on the path towards abusing his time-traveling abilities.

Young Barry Wears Yellow Like Reverse-Flash

Eobard Thawne, better known as the Reverse-Flash, is Barry Allen’s greatest enemy in DC’s comics, so the villain was, naturally, hypothesized to appear in The Flash. Reverse-Flash is, ultimately, absent, yet the mysterious circumstances of Nora Allen’s murder leave room for him to appear in future movies. Notably, however, the younger iteration of Barry Allen is introduced wearing yellow, the color of Reverse-Flash’s suit. While Reverse-Flash does not appear in The Flash, the younger Barry’s use of his signature color is a subtle hint that he will turn to villainy.

Dark Flash Has Purple Lightning

When Dark Flash first shows up, he is notably emitting purple lightning. The DCEU already established that Barry Allen’s powers cause lightning bolts to form around him. Normally, these bolts are blue, but Barry’s second Flash outfit augments his powers and changes the color of his lightning bolts to a more comic-accurate yellow. When Barry fights alongside his younger counterpart, the latter’s lightning color is the familiar shade of blue. Dark Flash’s lightning being purple is closet to the unrefined blue lightning Barry’s powers used to emit.
