The heroes of The Flash have found a cure for Firestorm‘s powers, meaning the Legends of Tomorrow may lose BOTH members of their team. It’s just one of several bombshells in the Arrowverse crossover spread across four episodes of Supergirl, Arrow, The Flash and Legends. The Firestorm team of Martin Stein and Jax have been struggling to break free of their nuclear bond, and the minds at S.T.A.R. Labs have come up with a solution. The only problem? It will mean the end of Firestorm for good.

That twist may be shocking, but with Victor Garber leaving Legends of Tomorrow this season, it makes a lot of sense. After that news broke, it didn’t take fans long to realize that if one half of Firestorm left, the other would need to go with them. But with no frontrunner for Jax’s new partner emerging, and the cure entering the story of the CW crossover, it seems the time has come.

Is this the end of both Firestorm heroes? Or will the “cure” grant all the powers to Jax?

WHY THE FIRESTORM REQUIRES TWO HEROES





Flash Firestorm Robbie Amell Returning Firestorm Leaving The CWs Arrowverse For Good?


It’s been a long time since Ronnie Raymond and Martin Stein shared a single body as the crazed, uncontrollable Firestorm, and almost as long since the two found a way to peacefully merge and divide, retaining their sanity along the way. The science of that combination has always been more fiction than fact, with the discovery of the ‘Firestorm Matrix’ providing the audience with lasting answers. To make fuzzy science somewhat clear, the same particle accelerator explosion that gave Barry and his friends their powers transformed Ronnie (Robbie Amell) and Martin into a single nuclear being. Divide, and create and explosion. Once divided (thanks to S.T.AR. Labs brilliance), the pair begin a slow climb towards nuclear meltdown, lest they recombine to fuel the Matrix once more.

By now, every fan recalls the saga of Ronnie Raymond, sacrificing his life to save Earth-1 back in season 2 of The Flash and leaving Martin on his own. In need of a new, compatible partner with whom to restore the Matrix, Jax landed the part – and the rest of his time with the Legends of Tomorrow is history. In recent episodes, however, Martin and Jax’s pairing has put a strain on the former. With a child and grandchild to embrace thanks to timeline-alterations, Martin has been looking to leave the role of superhero behind.

THE CURE FOR FIRESTORM MEANS THE HERO’S END

Victor Garber in Legends of Tomorrow Firestorm Leaving The CWs Arrowverse For Good?

As Cisco and Wells reveal to the Firestorm duo in the first chapter of the “Crisis on Earth-X” crossover, the S.T.A.R. Labs team has put their plan for returning Barry from the Speed Force to a new purpose. For those who may not recall exactly how they did it in the season 4 premiere – and any could be forgiven – it relied on “Quark Spheres,” a theoretical-physics-y McGuffin that would “trick” the Speed Force. These spheres would convince all concerned that Barry remained in his Speed Force prison even after he left. And since the Firestorm Matrix is based on the same kind of pseudo-sci-fi quantum forces, the pair’s research has been repurposed.
