’The Flash’ Season 3: What We Know So Far

#4 – Doctor Alchemy And Savitar Are The Big Bads

While we haven’t learned much about them, we do know that Barry will be facing not one, but two big baddies this season as the show will be introducing Doctor Alchemy and the evil speedster Savitar in Season 3. The trailer from Comic-Con gave us a quick glimpse at Alchemy who you can expect to see at least in the seventh episode (directed by Kevin Smith) as his next appearance, although we should probably see him again before 3.07. Todd Helbing, one of the executive producers, teased during an interview with IGN, that Savitar (who has been described as a psychological threat) and Alchemy might be on the same side:

“I’ll just say that Dr. Alchemy’s plan and Savitar’s plan are not much different.”

On a side note: while we don’t know who is underneath that mask, Doctor Alchemy’s comic book name is Albert Desmond and Tom Felton’s character (who is a result out of Flashpoint) is named Julian Albert. Given that Julian is going to be butting heads with Barry at CCPD, as well as what his last name is: I’m betting my money on Julian being Doctor Alchemy.
