Their meeting is interrupted by a combined attack of Amazons and Atlanteans. While Bruce and Thomas fight off the attack, Barry rebuilds the Cosmic Treadmill so they can escape the Flashpoint universe, but Thomas decides to stay behind and sacrifices himself to allow Bruce and Barry to escape into the timestream.
