The latest season of The Flash is filled with mystery and surprising revelations as it approaches its near end. But while the fans and viewers are excited to learn what's in store for the remaining episodes, Team Flash will take a month-long break before it returns on CW for its eighteenth episode.
Apparently, the eighteenth episode of The Flash season 5 is set to premiere on April 19 of this year. And as it happens, the upcoming episode is titled "Godspeed."
Every DC fan knows that Godspeed is the ultimate nemesis of Flash in the comics. This is why ever since the fifth season began, viewers of the show are already expecting that Godspeed will be the main villain of the installment. Additionally, many believe that this nemesis will last until season 7 if ever the show will be renewed for more installments according to Cartermatt.
But as the show progresses, no sign of the said nemesis has been ever shown in every episode. And as it appears, it seems that the future Cicada is set to be ultimate villain for this season.
Even so, with the recent turnout of events in the previous episode, there is a huge possibility now that Godspeed will already be introduced in the remaining episodes of the season. As anyone who was able to watch the seventeenth episode of The Flash Season 5, an intense cliffhanger was left as the show ended.
Nora was locked up by Flash himself after learning her daughter's real intentions and what she has been doing since she came in the series. So, it seemingly appears that Nora will have a timeout for a while from being a villain in the show as explained Comic Book Movie.
Accordingly, if Godspeed will be introduced in the next episodes once The Flash returns, it will make sense since the protagonist, well, needs a contrasting aspect in the plot. And this might be what the show needs since a lot of fans are really looking forward to having Godspeed in the plot.
Although there is already a good hint and sign that this nemesis of Flash will come into the light, there are no confirmations yet about his appearance and introduction in the next episodes.
So, the best way to learn if these things will truly happen is to wait for The Flash's return. On another note, fans may also wait for the official synopsis and trailer which is likely to be released a week before the return date.
