The first time we see the headline of the article, is the very end of The Flash’s pilot episode, when we start to see that Harrison Wells isn’t who he’s pretending to be… This version of the article is written by journalist Evan Gibson. ⚡️

In season 3, due to post-Flashpoint changes, Barry discusses the article with Oliver, after realizing it is no longer written by Iris. It suggests that something about her/their future has changed. This time it is written by Julie Greer. ⚡️

After defeating Savitar and saving Iris in S3, the article goes back to normal. “25 Years Later- Flash Still Missing” April 25th, 2049 When Barry & Iris’ daughter Nora comes back from the future, she tells Barry he’s STILL missing in her future. ⚡️

The season 5 finale shows us the biggest change in the article, which forces Crisis to happen sooner, in 2019, rather than 2024. Thus, completely changing the trajectory of the article as we knew it in S1.

As we know, Crisis doesn’t happen as the original article says, due to all the timeline changes & the creators wanting to make it an Arrowverse event. Our Barry doesn’t end up vanishing, instead, Earth-90 Barry Allen takes his place & sacrifices his life for the multiverse. ♥️⚡️

Finally, Iris publishes the article “Flash Returns, Stops Crisis” on January 14th, 2020. Even tho the article didn’t come to fruition like we all thought, it’s still really fun to theorize how it could’ve been built up to & what it would have looked like in the og timeline. 🙌⚡️

Crazy!!!! It’s today!!!!!
