    Philippe was born in the 64th century and grew up to be the criminal known as Abra Kadabra.[1] At some point, he began to have dreams of his Pre-Crisis life caused by neuro-temporal displacement which he believed were caused by The Flash changing the timeline. This led him to the Flash Museum where he acquired a broken down Martian Memory Restorer, that was created by Cisco Ramon, which he then fixed and used to fully restore his Pre-Crisis memories. They included that of his former wife and son, Amélie and Luca, who were erased from the timeline after the Crisis.[2]

    In 2017, Abra Kadabra fought The Flash [1] and was recorded in Cisco's Who's Who? Binder.[3]

    The Final Trick[edit | hide]

    Wrongfully blaming The Flash for Crisis erasing his family under the claims that he was supposed to vanish, Philippe traveled back in time to the twenty-first century intent on wiping out Central City using an antimatter bomb. After committing a robbery for a device designed to help him charge the antimatter bomb, Team Flash got to the case. Philippe was eventually confronted by Team Flash, and he deceived them into thinking they stopped him even though it was his plan to get captured by A.R.G.U.S. as it was supposed to help him charge his antimatter bomb.

    With the weapon charging and his location supposed to be hard to find for Barry Allen, he was eventually confronted. Barry brought up his family and figured out that Philippe had his Pre-Crisis memories. Determined to destroy Central City in order to get vengeance for his false claim that The Flash caused the death of his family, he resisted his words while mocking 21st century backwards thinking. Later, he was redeemed once The Flash used his words as a scientist to get Philippe to face his grief with mathematical calculations instead of blaming The Flash for it.

    Afterward, Philippe and Barry shared the names of those they lost before Fuerza attacked them, and after failing to use the bomb, he died of a slap after being slammed onto a metallic stand.
