Podcasts about negative speed force

We take our first look at a Flash-affiliated character with Barry Allen's nemesis EOBARD THAWNE! Things go off the rails pretty quickly, but it's ok, because we can just jump to another timeline where everything is fine, and no one will be any the wiser - except for Eobard... Intro Background (2:05) Eobard Thawne, aka Professor Zoom or the Reverse Flash, created by John Broome and Carmine Infantino in The Flash #139 (Sept. 1963) Eobard Thawne is a scientist from the 25th century, where superheroes are few He becomes obsessed with learning about the Speed Force, but he initially encounters some obstacles until his future self intervenes several times: He was jealous of his younger brother growing up, until his future self prevented Robern from being born and then his future self caused the death of his parents, since they were worried about his obsession He kills another professor who is close to unlocking the secrets of the Speed Force After Eobard falls in love with a reporter, his future self kills her fiance and any man she ever dated - when she still rejected him, his future self went back to her childhood and traumatized her to the point of rendering her mute He becomes obsessed with Barry Allen, to the point of getting cosmetic surgery to resemble him Obtains a Cosmic Treadmill, a copy of the Flash's costume, and replicates the accident to give himself Flash's powers - he traveled back to a few years after Barry's death, and learned that he would become Professor Zoom, the Reverse-Flash, and Barry's greatest nemesis This caused a psychic break, and Thawne became convinced he *was* a resurrected Barry Allen, and even managed to convince several of Barry's friends he was Barry - after attacking several heroes for “forgetting” him, Wally West tricked him into returning to his home time Thawne became obsessed with replacing Barry, to the point of killing Iris West, and when he attacked Fiona Webb, Barry broke his neck and killed him Flash: Rebirth reveals that Thawne is responsible for every tragedy in Barry's life, including the death of his mother - after killing several speedsters, he announces his connection to the Negative Speed Force, and says he will kill Iris before Barry has a chance to meet her - as Barry and Wally travel backwards in time, they merge into the lightning bolt that originally gave Barry his powers #BecauseComics - Thawne is imprisoned in a device that severs his connection to the Speed Force, removing his powers The broken neck version was resurrected during Blackest Night and then purified by a white light  Thawne is the central villain of Flashpoint - when Barry travels back to prevent Thawne from killing Nora West, the resulting timeline is drastically different - Thawne is then killed by the new Batman, and Barry goes back to prevent himself from stopping her murder, which creates a new third timeline Rebirth revises his origin - he's met in the 25th century by Barry, who prevents him from carrying out further crimes - he is temporarily rehabilitated, until he travels to the past and learns Barry didn't consider him as much of a friend as he initially thought, so he vows to make Barry miserable until Barry “makes time” for him He's one of the primary villains of the Button, where he has memories of every timeline, and uses this knowledge to torture Barry, Bruce Wayne, and heroes, until he's killed by Dr. Manhattan, although he's resurrected by the negative Speed Force once again Finish Line - Thawne vibrates into Barry, taking over his mind and trapping Barry in the Speed Force - Thawne says he and Barry will forever be trapped in a loop, until Barry forgives him - this confuses Thawne, and Barry is able to reset him in the 25th century, where he is a tour guide at the Flash Museum with no memory of being a villain Issues - “Eobard Thawne. The man who reads the Evil Overlord List and reacts with an oblivious bemusement. The man with an absolute pathological need to prove himself superior to everyone around him to the point where even other villains hate his guts. Thawne has spent the last 60 years elevating the concept of the Villain Ball to an almost comical extent, and is fortunately so ridiculously chatty and forthcoming about himself and his feelings that we can easily mine a ton of his many issues from it to figure out why.” (15:56) Absolute obsession with and desire to replace The Flash. Thawne comes from a time when superheroes are thought of as a quaint anachronism, and striving to be one would be like someone today saying their dream was to be a medieval knight. But he idolized the era and The Flash in particular enough to become obsessed with becoming him. After recreating the accident that gave The Flash his super speed and traveling back in time to meet his hero, he found out that his destiny was instead to become The Flash's greatest enemy, and it simply broke him inside. From then on, his entire reason for being became wrapped around inserting himself into Barry's life, alternating between trying to ruin it and trying to usurp it. He tried getting Barry's wife to fall in love with him, tried to take Barry's place in the original accident and become the original Flash, and ultimately settled on using his time travel ability to become the source of every bad thing that ever happened in Barry's life. It's not an exaggeration to say that Thawne does not have or want a life of his own; he actually does want Barry's for himself. Superiority complex. When you think about Eobard Thawne is actually capable of doing, it's a real wonder why he ever fails at anything at all. The man can move at many times the speed of light. He can cross the room and shred your heart before your eyes can even send the signal to your brain that it's happening. He can kill a room full of a hundred people in a hundred different ways before any of them could react. All of which pales in comparison to his mastery of time travel. If anyone or anything is an obstacle to his objectives or even so much as affronts his sight, he can go back in time and completely erase it from existence. That's an actual thing he does with regularity. There is quite literally no goal on any scale he could not achieve with his powers. But that's simply not enough for him. At the moment of every single one of his triumphs, he has to let everyone in earshot know that it was him who did it. He grandstands and gloats about his success, explaining in great detail everything he did, how he did it, and how powerless everyone is to stop him from keeping on doing whatever he wants. Invariably, this winds up with the heroes either having the time to make their move or having the exact information they need to stop him. Thawne didn't invent Evil Monologuing by any stretch, but he's perfected it to an art form. It's a pathology with this man. He has to have you acknowledge his greatness, or he doesn't consider it a victory. There is no limit to what he could achieve if he just didn't care about getting the credit for it. (22:18) Pettiness on a scale hitherto undreamt of. To paraphrase Billy Beane in Moneyball, there's petty, there's that which petty aspires to be, there's fifty additional magnitudes of petty that the English language doesn't have words for, and then there's Thawne. The man responds to personal slights as if they were absolute declarations of war. He has completely erased his younger brother from existence because he thought his parents loved him more. He got a crush on a woman and erased her husband and all of her ex-boyfriends from existence so she'd have no reason not to date him, then when she still rejected him, he traveled back in time and repeatedly traumatized her as a child to the point where she wound up in a permanent vegetative state for the rest of her life. He found a limiting factor on his time travel that he couldn't kill Barry Allen or do anything that prevents him from becoming The Flash, so instead he settled on simply becoming the direct cause of every bad thing that's ever happened in his life, including things so minor as making him late for class in school and making him miss a catch in a baseball game. He's done this with villains who annoy him as well; Hunter Zolomon owes the entire line of tragedies that led to him becoming Professor Zoom to Thawne traveling through time and causing them. There is no slight so trivial that Thawne won't respond to it with the most disproportionate retribution he can imagine. (28:28) Dozens and dozens of lifetimes worth of memories. Thawne's use of the Negative Speed Force gives him a form of superceding time travel. He can alter history and retain the memories of his life and the world exactly as it was before he changed it. Unfortunately, he has time traveled and altered history so many times and so drastically that his memories now consist of dozens of lifetimes all folded into themselves. He remembers every version of himself in every timeline he's ever existed in, and every version of every other important person in his life and how their histories have changed as well. It all just blends together for him in a way that makes absolutely no linear sense trying to keep it all straight. That has to be absolutely maddening; like a Mandela Effect, but for your entire life, and multiplied by every single time he changes the timeline. No one else remembers anything in the same way that he does, and there's absolutely no way he can convince anyone about the way things used to be.

Hmm…you seem out of breath - *heavy breathing* It took a lot for me to get here. But I can't ignore a slight like that. As you know, a doctor should only address a colleague with a title the equivalent to their own. You can't be serio…ow! What was that? -The skin of the areola is incredibly sensitive to certain angular forces. Your nerve endings are actually a bit different based on your scream. Most people have a heightened reaction from the pain itself, but for you, the mere sensation of unexpected touch and pressure were too much for you. *yawn* But as all plebians before you, your nervous system stood no chance in keeping up with my abilities. And that, my dear doctor, was only a sample of what I am capable of. *pause* You just gave a soliloquy on a purple nurple? -I had to demonstrate that you are not superior to me in any aspect of existence. Ok -*pause* That's it? Just, “OK?” You don't protest? Where's the fear? Where's the awe? Anger? Something besides “Ok”? Okaaaaay…Professor? -That's better…wait, still no emotion behind it. What is wrong with you? Do I have to phase through you and shatter your spleen? Needlessly graphic but no…*sigh* Look, I'm not superpowered, you're not controllable, so I'm a sitting duck just for agreeing to meet with you, no matter what safeguards I may have thought of. -That was very naive of you. I'd be insulted if I didn't already feel insulted about the fact that some version of me that I talked with at some point in the future thought this was a good idea. What will I be thinking? Um…was thinking. You get the point. Sure. So, what can I do for you? -There's someone I know that I used to idolize. Now I hate him. He killed me, but I came back. Now I can't destroy him because I want to exist, but I want to ruin every part of his life. You know, “as you do” Are you expecting me to empathize with that? OOOOF; what did you do now? -Matter has multiple phases. Most people will only experience the most basic solid, liquid, and gas. But, as a scientist at heart, I'm sure you're aware of plasma. Under typical Earth conditions, you would only be able to withstand a nanoparticle of any element in a picosecond of time as it sublimates from a liquid format and dissipates instantaneously in some form of biological substrate in an elongated but small cavernous bony structure with a malleable yet firm membrane *Interrupting* You spit in my ear?! What are you, 12?! - Superspeed saliva, sir! It's your privilege. The fact that your head did not disintegrate is only because I can control my mouth and tongue with exquisite precision. You could kill me at any moment, and you torture me with pranks? What's the point? -I've given you a glimpse of my power. Now imagine that for every moment of your life. To know that at any point, I can cause you immeasurable suffering and pain with the slightest show of effort on my part. THAT is what I live for.  So you can be the most influential being for every person's life who ever existed, and you choose to make it miserable? Not exactly a way to win friends. -But you're wrong. I've created factions of allies that bring dimensions to their proverbial knees! Until you, what, give them a thermonuclear wedgie? That's what the history books will say. Eobard Thawne, the person who created a black hole constructed out of his own spite and misery. -You do realize that with what you're proposing, there would BE no history books, because I would have wiped out recorded history by definition of Do you have an off switch for that? -My genius? No, unfortunately for you, I don't. Then why don't you find someone else to bounce your evil plans off of? I'm too ethical to help you make things worse for yourself. -*pause* Come again? Ever heard of mimetic thinking? It's the idea that an individual's goals in life are constantly shaped by the goals they've observed set by others. We're unique in our existence, but not in our shared outcomes. You already determined one failpoint, whoever you were talking about -Barry. His name's Barry *dismissive for once* whatever. The point is, you must have gotten this idea, somewhere, from someone, that destroying everything is a positive. But the lack of anything is sure to be a negative when there's nothing left. Will you just do it again? Are you so unoriginal that you just want to run a time loop hamster wheel? -You are NOT getting away with comparing me to a hamster on a wheel, just because I use a treadmill to guide the fate of the universe!  I didn't even…uh…wow. That's um…that's a…thing, I guess -You don't even know your own argument. You're bluffing! This is beyond trivial. Hey, you said that at some point, YOU told yourself that talking to me was a good idea. I have no inkling WHY, because you're the self proclaimed genius with the speed to do it all whenever you want, and you make yourself trivial in the process. I don't think you're capable of relating anymore. At least not with someone like me. Go find my evil doppleganger or something in another dimension, I don't know. -*evil laugh* YES! You stupid, foolish brilliant doctor! That makes sense. There must be a negative version of you.I just have to find him. He will unlock the last mysteries of my negative speedforce forever! But I needed you to tell me that.  Wait! I *zoom sound, door shut* I guess I should be glad he took the “evil dimensional twin” comment and not the nuclear wedgie one. *more zooming, then door knocking* Um, come in. -*heavy breathing* Hello Mr. Thawne, I'm Dr. Issues. Hmm…you seem out of breath - *heavy breathing* It took a lot for me to get here. But  *interrupting* It's still me, Eobard. I think you've got yourself stuck somehow. -*pause* How…I know this is Barry somehow. It has to be. It's his ultimate prank on me. He's getting me back! I'm forced to listen to an incompetent shrink until I find a way out! Hey!…or…ORRRRR…you could try doing some positive coping activities that open your mind so that you end up with a sense of gratitude for what you have, which will lead to better things in the future. Huh/ Huuuuuh? You ever think of that? You're stuck with me until you get it right anyway. -Oh for the love of…how about if I shortcut this whole thing to the end and tell myself that you are worth talking to so we can all get along and I can move on to wrecking Barry's life again. Deal?  Isn't that just -Don't care, I'm doing it.

"A New World, Part 2: The Blues" Iris and Team Flash create a plan to search for the missing speedster, but end up confronting one of their own. Mark has been corrupted by the Negative Speed Force and is doing his best to destroy Iris, and keep the team from finding The Flash. Somewhere in the future, Malcolm Gilmore comes to terms with the fact that he may be Eddie Thawne, a deceased police officer. How does all this connect to the Negative Speed Force? And where has Barry been sent this time? Beth and Jay use Nature to save our friends on Scarlet Velocity: A Flash Podcast!

The Rogues (Mercer, Wozzeck, and new recruit Michelle Amar / Murmur) steal a temporal scanner from Corbin Taft Industries. Barry realizes that they're trying to build a Cosmic Treadmill, but will need a vibration engine, and assembles Hartley, Mark, Jaco Birch, and Goldface to steal it before the Rogues can. They decide to do the mission without him until Barry agrees to trust and compensate them. He does so, but Mark betrays the group and reveals his allegiance to the Rogues in exchange for Frost's resurrection. The Rogues intercept Barry's group while the speedster temporarily disables his speed and escapes with the engine and the Rogues. Meanwhile, Khione tries to convince Allegra to stop avoiding Chester.

The Negative Forces transform Thawne into their new avatar. In the Negative Speed Force, they explain to Barry that this is their revenge for when he weakened them by removing Thawne's speed. Barry, Meena, Bart, and Nora fight Thawne in Central City, but he sends the latter three back in time. Meanwhile, Cecile rescues Bashir and transfers her powers to him which he uses to rescue the other Forces so they can aid Barry. Iris is saved by the Time Stone and Damien Darhk helps her resurrect herself. Jay Garrick reunites her with Barry. With help from the Forces, he reverses a powerful attack from Thawne back into him, removing him from the timeline. After the universe "resets", Iris is cured of her time sickness and the speedsters return to their native time. The BLOC is depowered and Meena loses her speed. The CRC malfunctions and Mark encounters someone claiming to be "a friend". Mona and Dillon's powers are restored while Cecile develops telekinesis. Tinya and Renee are reunited. Iris mentions that the NSF will find a new avatar and Barry states that he'll be ready. A blue crystal is shown at a laboratory in 2049.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

I am so sorry... After training Meena, Barry is shown the Biometric Lightning Oscillation Chamber (BLOC), which grants Meena's speed. She introduces him to its co-inventor: Thawne, with his original face, though he doesn't remember his past or Barry. On Lian Yu, Thawne theorizes that he is from an alternate timeline. Barry tries to stop Meena from using the BLOC, but she connects to the Negative Speed Force and begins draining power junctions. The alternate Thawne states that he fell in love with Meena and had visions of the BLOC, but was unaware of the NSF. He and Team Flash find Meena in Keystone City, and he is able to disconnect Meena from the NSF. Later, Ray Palmer informs Team Flash that the Flashpoint Thawne was revived by the Time Wraiths[N 2] and Barry theorizes that he was revived again and brought to Meena. Meanwhile, Cecile's powers grow when she stops a bank robbery and mugging. Mark contacts Caitlin with a new plan to revive Frost. John Diggle approaches Thawne for help in opening his box[N 3], but it disappears when Diggle chooses to remain with his family instead of accepting its power. Thawne is visited by Deon who states that it's time to "fulfill his destiny".Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Barry is given a "Speed Gauge" by Cisco and Caitlen, which is a device to monitor his speed to prevent him from using up his reserves of Speed Force energy. Then, Caitlen and Cisco figure a way to stop Nash's body from being taken over by Thawne’s consciousness, however, the Eobard possessed Wells escapes and attempts to escape in the Time Sphere, but Barry is able to stop him. With time running out until Eobard fully takes over Nash’s body, Cisco decides to perform an Exorcism to rid Nash of Eobard’s consciousness. Meanwhile, at the CCPD, Joe and Singh suspect a mole within the department. Elsewhere, Eva sends Mirror Iris and a newly created mirror clone of Kamilla to steal a Prismatic Refractor from Mercury Labs that she needs for her "long term plans". During the heist, they are attacked by another Black Hole assassin going by the alias of "Sunshine", who is stopped by Frost and Barry. To ensure he has enough speed to face Sunshine, Barry injected himself with Velocity-X after ignoring Caitlin's advice, and his body rejects it. The team decides to turn the Prismatic Refractor into A.R.G.U.S. for safekeeping, and uses this transfer as a trap for Sunshine. The trap is sprung when Sunshine is lured into Barry’s CSI lab by Joe, Singh and Barry, and all the windows are closed leaving Sunshine powerless. Back at Star Labs, Cecile realizes that Thawne is trapping Nash in a loop of his past memories. Barry suggests he, Cisco and Cecile enter Nash's mind to help. While there, Cisco encourages a reluctant Nash to confront his memories while Thawne taunts Barry about his daughter Nora. To conquer his fear and emotions, Nash relives his memory of Maia dieing on Earth-13 one year ago, Maia is a doppelgänger of Allegra from Earth-712 and his daughter figure. Having overcome his fear and accepting his responsibility for Maia’s death, Nash expels Eobard’s consciousness from his mind, and back into the Negative Speed Force. Later, Cisco informs Nash that the minds of the previous Wells will still be in his head, and Barry apologises to Caitlin for using Velocity-X against her advice. Then, he explains his idea for using Nora's diary to find how to create a Speed Force. Finally, Mirror Iris and Mirror Kamilla bring back the Prismatic Refractor to Eva who plans to use it as part of her escape.

Team Flash decide to gather the metahumans in Central City at the CCPD and distribute the cure to protect them against Cicada. Sherloque goes to get Renee, but she refuses the cure and is sent to safety on his Earth. Nora reveals she is still connected to Grace's mind from using the Memory Machine and feels her anger through the Negative Speed Force. She wants to look through Grace's eyes to locate her, but her parents decide it is too dangerous. Ralph is trying to figure out Thawne's plan, but the others are more interested in stopping Cicada. After Cicada collects the final pieces for her weapon, Barry and Iris agree to let Nora connect to her and expose herself to the Negative Speed Force, and she locates Cicada just as she attacks CCPD. Cicada then uses the metas' dark matter as a battery for the cryo-atomizer. While the others engage Cicada, Cisco disables the cryo-atomizer. Finally, Ralph figures out Thawne's plan just as Barry shoots Cicada's dagger with the mirror gun. In 2049, Thawne's time is up and he is about to be executed. As he is strapped down, it is revealed that his powers are being dampened by Cicada's dagger.

Barry and Iris fight over him sending Nora back without consulting her. Iris reprograms the Time Sphere and travels to 2049. There, Nora wants Thawne to teach her how to use the Negative Speed Force to time travel without being detected by her father. After an unsuccessful attempt, Nora and Thawne are confronted by Iris, who wants to take Nora back with the Time Sphere. An upset Nora instead enters the Negative Speed Force. Thawne admits he made a mistake and tells Iris to reunite her family. Meanwhile, Icicle steals a cryo-atomizer from Tannhauser Industries and then kidnaps Caitlin and Carla, planning to eliminate their human sides. Caitlin turns into Killer Frost to fight Icicle, while Barry saves Carla from a cryo chamber. Icicle is about to kill Caitlin, when Thomas Snow suddenly finds the strength to return to his human form. Cicada, who earlier kidnapped her younger self, arrives and fights Killer Frost. Thomas sacrifices himself for his daughter by stepping in front of Cicada's dagger, after which Cicada escapes with the cryo-atomizer. Unknown to anyone, Carla tests positive for icicle powers. Finally, Barry admits he was wrong and he and Iris agree to work together to help their daughter. Elsewhere, Nora emerges from the Negative Speed Force with glowing red eyes.

The Flash deals with the Negative Speed Force and then has to solve a murder inside Iron Heights in Flash, Volume 6: Cold Day in Hell.

The Flash's power is out of control and the wonky artwork isn't helping.Affiliate link include.Transcript below:Another volume of The Flash is out. Does that mean more sorrow, suffering and anguish for Barry Allen. Find out as we look at The Flash: Volume Five Negative, straight ahead.Welcome to the Classy Comics Podcast where we search for the best comics in the universe. From Boise, Idaho here is your host, Adam Graham.The Flash is the comic series that I've been reading the longest. It was actually the only series I regularly read during DCs New Fifty-Two era, and I liked a lot of the ideas Josh Williamson came up with in the early Issues of the series. But it seems like the series has taken a slightly more negative turn with Kid Flash breaking away from Barry. Of course, Kid Flash – in this case the the younger Wally West – and in the last volume he faced Reverse Flash and ended up winning, but Iris learned his secret identity, feels very betrayed and at the same time he received powers from the Negative Speed Force – thus the title of this volume and of the first Two-Issue story. Barry Allen's life has been off kilter – in fact, all he needs is to have a dog that dies and he's a country music song. I was hoping that this volume would mark a turn for our hero, a sort of recovery from all of the negativity. But that doesn't happen in the first two Issues in this book, Issues Twenty-Eight and Twenty-Nine Negative, which focuses on his inability to control his powers and his increasing frustration with it. There is a certain grittiness to the story that some people will like, but this is a case of should The Flash really be gritty? And the answer is, not on a regular basis. Plus Barry's kind of the focus of this is, you've got these villains – The Road Ravers – who are not much of a challenge at all, which whether you're looking at comic books or you're looking at television a popular tactic with The Flash is when you want to focus on a character you give a real lead-a-lot white super-villain. bBut the problem with this book is it's not so much character-focused as navel gazing and Barry, I'm sorry to say, comes off as a bit whiny as the story progresses. He and his team at Central City P.D. are also tasked with looking into some theft of blood evidence from the evidence lock up, though little progress is made on that until the next story, Bloodwork, where he does find the villain behind the lab thefts after a scene where he just absolutely blows up at his team. It's a real prima donna moment and not really fun to read as it's just totally the antithesis of the character. But I will say that in Bloodwork there is a sort of turning about for Barry as one of his coworkers, Kirsten, confronts him and tries to calm him down and is concerned because she had a friend who went through a bad breakup and committed suicide. And even the super-villain fight here – I will give Williamson some credit because the fight really does create a situation where Barry has to confront his own demons, because much of what the super-villain who is behind this or who is created by this is doing calls to mind a lot of Barry's issues. The super-villain isn't the greatest but I think it's clever and it does give this character a relatable origin story. The series also features the young Wally West stepping up and offering to put aside his differences with Barry to help train Barry to balance out the Negative Speed Force powers so that Barry can use his powers without them ripping apart the city, which had been kind of a problem with his inability to control them. So, I like that and I like the general direction that they're taking the young Wally West character. The final Issue in the book, The Full Story,
