The cover for The Flash #9 is an homage to the Flash #123 (volume 1) which introduced the concept of Earth 2 and brought the original Flash back.
It’s been homaged a lot… I mean a lot! Here’s just a few.
I’m sure there are other homages that I missed. Feel free to leave links to them in the comments section below and I’ll update.
Also, if you want to pick up a tpb that has the original Flash of Two Worlds tale and more you’re in luck!
All that said, The Flash #9 seems intriguing.
