You reset the universe one time and nobody ever lets you live it down.
We're putting a moratorium on time travel being used in screen adaptations of the Flash. That's not even his thing. Stop it.
#that said my favorite Flash time-travel story is actually from back in the silver age#where he used the cosmic treadmill to visit the end of the universe and touched some grey hypermatter sludge or whatever while he was there#and then when he came back home it had a residual effect that caused anything his hands touched to age into dust instantly#the solution wound up to be touching some oats and then eating them which inoculated his body against the effect#(the justification for why the oats didn't turn to dust is that there's preserved oats from the neolithic era or something)#it was a very silver age brand of dumb#but it was also one of the stories in those phonebook-thick collections of comics that I'd lose myself in from my childhood library#so it's got a special place in my heart
