“The Flash” finally returned from break this week, and the midseason premiere shook things up in a big way. Barry Allen spent most of the episode in court during “The Trial of The Flash” but he did take a quick leave of absence from the courtroom to fight Central City’s newest metahuman.
However, when Barry returned to the courtroom, we found out that he had been found guilty for the murder of Clifford DeVoe, and he was then sent to prison.
Barry is now ironically spending his life sentence in the same prison cell that his father once occupied at Iron Heights Prison, and there’s no sign of him getting out in the near future.
Even though Barry will be locked away in Iron Heights, it looks like he’s going to be making a new friend.
Soon to be WWE Hall of Famer Bill Goldberg is set to appear in next week’s episode of “The Flash” and his character is listed as Big Sir. Judging from the photos that have been released, it looks like he’ll be an ally to Barry in prison.
Meanwhile, on the outside Caitlin and Cisco get abducted, and with Barry out of the picture, it’s up to Ralph Dibny to save his friends, and the city.
Luckily for Ralph, he’s getting a major upgrade in the suit department next week.
The CW has released new photos from the upcoming episode showing Goldberg, The Elongated Man’s new suit and more, and you can check them out below.
