The Flash Season 9 Is Seemingly Bringing Back A Major Past Villain
WARNING: This article features MAJOR spoilers from Earth-Prime #6: Hero's Twilight.
The Flash season 9 is seemingly set to bring back one of the Arrowverse drama's biggest villains, who hasn't been seen since season 6. As The Flash season 8 is approaching its end with the upcoming finale, titled «Negative, Part Two,» The Flash season 9 does not yet have a release date. While not much is known about season 9 thus far, it has been confirmed that Jesse L. Martin will be exiting the show as a series regular, after having portrayed Joe West since The Flash season 1. Candice Patton (Iris West) and Danielle Panabaker (Killer Frost) are also reportedly in negotiations for new contracts ahead of season 9, but their future remains unclear.
However, while plot details about The Flash season 9 are being kept under wraps, the Arrowverse story has continued to expand elsewhere. Since April 2022, DC Comics has been running an Arrowverse crossover project, titled Earth-Prime. It focuses on The Flash, Superman & Lois, Legends of Tomorrow, Batwoman, and DC's Stargirl. Issue #5 was penned by The Flash staff writers Jess Carson and Emily Palizzi, and the comic is considered canon in the wider Arrowverse.
