Following the events of the Battle vs Darkseid, Barry Allen is grieving the death of Superman while trying to return to normal life. As the world deals with the aftermath of the Blip, Barry just wants a break. He joins his classmates, including Ivy (Ivy West), Cheester P Runk, and August Heart, on a collage trip across Europe, planning to confess his feelings to Ivy. His vacation is interrupted by Amanda Waller, who recruits Barry to help battle mysterious elemental creatures attacking major cities. Waller introduces him to Abra Kadabra (Citizen Abra), a charismatic new hero who claims to be from the future and says the Elementals destroyed his world. Barry fights alongside Abra Kadabra in several large-scale battles, including a destructive confrontation in Venice and a major attack in Prague. Feeling overwhelmed and unsure if he can live up to Superman’s legacy, Barry is given access to E.D.I.T.H., a powerful Kryptonian satellite defense system. Believing Kadabra is a better hero, Barry hands control of E.D.I.T.H. to him. The truth is revealed: Abra Kadabra is not a hero from teh future but a former Wayne Industries employee. Using advanced holographic drone technology, he has been staging the Elemental attacks to manufacture crises and present himself as Earth’s greatest hero. His real plan is to orchestrate a massive illusion attack in London, killing thousands if necessary, to cement his legacy. After discovering the deception, Barry is lured into an intense illusion sequence where Abra Kadabra psychologically attacks him, blurring reality and nearly killing him. Injured and shaken, Barry regains confidence with the help of Jimmy Olsen, who reassures him that Clark didn’t expect him to be the next Superman only to be Flash. In the climactic battle in London, Barry overcomes Kadabra’s illusions, disables the drones, and regains control of E.D.I.T.H. Kadabra is seemingly killed by his own technology. After returning to Central City, Barry begins a relationship with Ivy, finally embracing both his personal and heroic identities. In the mid-credits scene, a shocking twist occurs: a broadcast by Captain of Police Singh, reveals manipulated footage framing Flash for Kadabra’s attack and publicly exposes Barry Allen’s secret identity to the world. In the post-credits scene, it’s revealed that the Amanda Waller seen throughout the film was actually the Martian Manhunter in disguise, while the real Waller is in space overseeing a larger operation.
