Grant’s portrayal of Evil!Barry is incredible.

Photo: Hey, tough guy.  Meet Evil!Barry – aka Savitar!

I love how Evil!Barry has such a menacing demeanor that leans on terror more than aggression.  He doesn’t use a show of force; he uses slow movements and removes his armor, putting himself in a vulnerable position in front of Our Barry.  As soon as we see him, we can’t look away: his expression is utterly arresting.  He has total control of the situation; he’s completely nonnegotiable.  He looks and acts like a zombie.  Something destroyed Barry, and this bastardized version of him and the Speed Force is all that’s left.

That smile is incredible.  I love that smile.  I love that it reaches his eyes.  This is a Barry who regrets none of his decisions and will make as many more as he possibly can.  This is a Barry who looks at an opportunity to kill his doppelgangers as a moral free-space, a situation where he can act as he pleases because he’s Barry and the rest are just Xeroxes, copies, clones.  Expendable.

This is also a Barry who has suffered grievously.  Look at his face: half of it is covered in scar tissue.  It looks eaten away, be it by acid, lightning, or something else.  He’s got a pretty serious cataract in his right eye; he’s at least partially blind.  The pure evil look I attribute largely to whatever happened to him while he was in the Speed Force, but I never predicted a physical injury to match the mental breaking point.  What happened to this guy?  I’m aching to know.  It won’t justify what he’s done, and I wouldn’t want it to, but I want to know the history of this guy.
