INTRODUCTION “There’s only one thing I know about life. I know some things happen by chance. And some things happen because we make them happen. Barry Allen was once haunted by the past. But when he became the Flash, he left the ghosts behind. He found love. A family. And for the first time ...

The Flash has been a bumpy road. It started almost impeccably with an outstanding first season; unfortunately, that would also prove to be its best season.

“Hear No Evil” is a big stumble for The Flash after a good premiere, and it bodes ill for the show’s final season. While there are some good themes of personal choice and weighing human lives, one of the main characters is treated with shocking callousness, a new character fails to impress, an...
