Spoilers about what will bring Barry Allen (The Flash) into the world of Arrow

We’ve already known that DC Comics’ Flash, Barry Allen, would be speeding into Starling City starting with the 8th and 9th episodes of Arrow Season 2. Now, thanks to a report on TV Line, we know what brings him into town:

I’ve got fresh intel on exactly what brings Central City PD CSI Barry Allen to Oliver’s orbit. The would-be speedster travels (not by foot, I assume) to Starling City while investigating a series of brutal slayings that he believes may have a connection to his mother’s years-ago murder — a crime for which his father has been unjustly imprisoned.

Interestingly, the death of Barry Allen’s mother is a very important plot point in the recently-released Justice League: the Flashpoint Paradox animated film, which, if you haven’t seen it, is definitely worth checking out.
