Now that a time traveling adult Grace Gibbons has taken over as big bad on The Flash, I’m oddly thrilled to learn she’s being referred to as what I’d been calling her following the big reveal, that being “Cicada II.” Hey, it’s obvious but it works.
For the time being, it appears as though Cicada II has been put on the back burner so that the situation involving Nora West-Allen and Eobard Thawne be fully explored – not to mention the return of the Icicle coming tomorrow night – but we can expect for Grace to resurface in season 5’s penultimate episode at the very latest. Suffice it to say, this has been confirmed by the official synopsis:
Cicada II Makes Her Move – Team Flash is on high alert after Cicada II (guest star Sarah Carter) threatens to unleash a dangerous virus that would put all meta-humans at risk.

The Flash has always been known for its great villains, but in Season 5, the show finally broke its own mold by introducing a female big bad: the future, female version of Cicada, Grace Gibbons (Sarah Carter).

There's a new Cicada in town on The Flash, and Sarah Carter told us all about her.
This article contains spoilers for The Flash if you aren't all caught up.
Just when it seemed Orlin Dwyer was about to lay down his dark matter dagger, a new Cicada buzzed their way into Central City last week to plague Team Flash. In a reveal at the end of the episode, fans learned the new version of the villain was none other than Grace Gibbons, Orlin’s niece from the future.
According to actor Sarah Carter, who plays the new Cicada, Grace is going to be an even bigger threat on The Flash beginning tonight, and “for the rest of the season.”
“She is more powerful than her uncle, she has skills he doesn’t have acquired in the future, and she is more vicious than her uncle,” says Carter.

I think it’s safe to say that we were all surprised by how last week’s episode of The Flash concluded. Well, Cicada’s decision to take the metahuman cure wasn’t the biggest of shockers, but the swift arrival of his successor certainly was. And if that weren’t enough, we learned her identity to be that of his niece, Grace Gibbons, somehow aged to adulthood.
If I were to guess, there are two possibilities as to how Grace could’ve claimed the mantle of Cicada: one is that her recently manifested powers awoke her from the coma and aged her by a decade or two. The other would be that she’s still in the coma, but Cicada II is a mental projection. Don’t forget, we got a hint at this several weeks ago when venturing inside of her mind.
No matter which solution proves true,...
