5 Theories About Who Killed Barry’s Mom In The Flash Movie

The death of Nora Allen sets the narrative for The Flash, yet the movie does not show who killed Barry Allen’s mom. The idea that Barry became a superhero because of the traumatic events that culminated in the death of his mother is a relatively new concept in the character’s 67-year-old mythos. However, Nora Allen’s death and all the characters associated with it quickly became an essential part of Barry Allen’s story across all media. Adaptations like Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox and The Flash series leaned heavily on how Nora Allen’s death ties into Barry’s future, namely through the Reverse-Flash.
