The Flash Season 3’s Second ‘BIG BAD’ Revealed!
It was revealed earlier this summer at SDCC that one of the main ‘big bad’ villains for ‘The Flash‘ season 3 is going to be Dr. Alchemy. Now it seems that there are going to be two ‘big bad’s’ for Barry to deal with this year. IGN is reporting that Barry will also face off against the villain ‘Savitar‘. If you are not familiar with ‘Savitar‘, we have all the details on this character below. Check it out and sound off with your opinions! The Flash returns for its third season on October 4th on the CW.
The villain, who first appeared in DC Comics in 1995, was originally a Cold War pilot in the comics whose plane was struck by lightning, granting him speedster powers. Savitar named himself after the Hindu god Savitr and spent his life studying and enhancing his powers. Among the abilities he learned were to create a null inertia force field around himself and heal any injuries he endures at a dramatically rapid pace.
Savitar gained a group of followers, establishing somewhat of a cult around himself, which sought to sever the ties of the world’s speedsters to the Speed Force.
