Grant Gustin's Scarlet Speedster is reaching the end of his race, with The Flash season 9 officially set to wrap up the popular Arrowverse drama.

What Major Storylines The Flash Season 9 Needs To Tackle Before The End

With a new trailer and several fresh photos from The Flash season 9, The CW has established a few things about the final season. As Barry and Iris grow closer as a married couple, a group of Rogues will be coming after the fastest man alive, "led by a powerful new threat," Despite the network only referring to her as "Mystery Character," the latest threat is more than likely going to be Javicia Leslie's Red Death, an alternative take on the Batwoman character. Another teased storyline is that once the Rogues are taken down, "a deadly new adversary rises to challenge" The Flash's legacy.

Despite The CW already sharing a few season 9 teasers, there is still some uncertainty about various storylines that need to be addressed and dealt with before The Flash ends in 2023. One of the last villain arcs that the DC TV series will need to conclude is whoever is becoming the new avatar of the Negative Speed Force. There is also the mysterious Caitlin Snow arc, as her state is currently unknown after the events of The Flash season 8. As far as Barry and Iris go, 2023 is the year when their daughter, Nora West-Allen, is supposed to be born, meaning The Flash season 9 will need a pregnancy storyline before the series finale.

Ideally, The Flash's final season will also see some kind of reunion with all the speedsters that have entered the Arrowverse over the last nine years. From Kid Flash, and Jay Garrick, to XS and Impulse, The CW series is hopefully staging a massive Flash Family reunion, as this will be the last time all of those characters can be together in this particular DC project. The Flash season 8 also has a massive DC Easter egg to payoff; Max Mercury, who is another famous speedster that was teased and potentially set up for season 9. As 2022 closes out, The Flash season 9 is closing in as one of the final Arrowverse shows goes on one last epic adventure.
