Back in early episodes of The Flash Season 3, we got introduced to the show’s latest big bad as the villainous speedster Savitar came to life from the pages of DC Comics. Since his arrival, Savitar has caused a lot of trouble for Team Flash, including the shocking future where he murders Iris West which Barry Allen has been trying to change ever since the winter finale last year.

However, the one thing they haven’t been able to figure out is who is underneath that armor, until tonight. In the latest episode “I Know Who You Are”, the mystery came to an end as it was revealed to Barry and the team that Savitar is none other than… Barry Allen himself from a different time.
