Paradox , the latest scoundrel in the Flash ’s famous Rouges gallery , has a personal vendetta against the hero . Paradox was originally a scientist who studied multiverse theory and alternate timelines . After being strike by lightning , Paradox became aware of the greater multiverse , touch base with it . During a engagement early on in Flash ’s career , Paradox was entrap in an alternate proportion where he became aware of the harm that Flash had caused to the timeline over the years . In Paradox ’s view , The Flash was doing more harm than good , and with his expanded world power , he make up one’s mind to permanently finish the hero , once and for all . Byharnessing " Crisis Energy,“energy created when clip changes , Paradox would slowly become impregnable and , by removing The Flash from fourth dimension constantly , Paradox would become as powerful as a God . Barry , growing desperate , decided toteam - upwith the Reverse - Flash , the villain having defeat Paradox in the twenty-fifth C . Paradox , on the other script , having made a reluctant ally with speedster Godspeed , traveled to various timelines in an effort to destroy as many Flashes as he could .
InFlash#754 , Paradox made his journeying through dissimilar timeline , murdering The Flash at various points in the Hero of Alexandria ’s calling . However , Paradox come to agnize that The Flash was always consider as a hero to many , even in death . In fact , as more Flash ’s conk out , including those murder by Paradox , the multiverse and various timelines would still hold the hero in high regard . This take Paradox to the end that death was an important part of the Flash legacy , but it also led him to a greater accuracy . In decree to remove the Flash ’s influence from the timelines and multiverse all in all , Paradox would have to not only completely destroy The Flash , but also everyone that he loves . Paradox then resolve to follow up this programme by soak up as much crisis energy as possible , give him complete restraint to absent the Flash ’s influence forever .
Paradox obligate the tonality to destroy the Flash and his bequest , and though the betting odds are against him , Barry does have one resolution to this conundrum . Reverse - Flash , though he has stop Paradox before via his " lightning pole " weapon , realizes that the only way to stop Paradox permanentlyis to kill him . This put Barry in a dilemma , as the hero refuses to stamp out his enemies and would prefer to determine an alternate mean value of stopping his enemy . However , with Paradox discovering the mean to remove the Flash from all timelines , via removing his make love single ( include Iris , Kid Flash , Bart Allen , etc . ) , Barry apparently has no selection but to for good end Paradox so as to salvage all that he loves .
The ramifications of time change of location are seldom discussed in comics books , with character like Barry Allen facing little upshot ( all things considered ) for his actions in create theFlashpointuniverse . Paradox as a baddie is interesting , in that his motives stanch from Flash committing hurt as a result of all of his time - traveling escapade . While a likely problem , or paradox , could get up from permanently erasing The Flash from various points in DC History , Paradox seems committed to the estimate that Barry Allen being removed from the timeline will fix the timeline itself . Though all seems bleak , there ’s no incertitude thatThe Flashwill feel a way out of his current situation , but given paradox growing strength , he will have to rule a result , and fast .
