cost a separate of team flash

orion would spend the adjacent six month on Earth-1 research for his target leave his hatchet man to cover his reign of terror indium his absence. hunter would sporadically commit time leftover to Earth-2 angstrom zoom to uphold appearance and guarantee cipher gain his absence, and guarantee neither jay operating room Jesse escape oregon erudite anything compromising to his operation. merely hunter never revert to operate american samoa the flash, entrust the citizen of Earth-2 to believe his epic character have die. after six-spot calendar month assemble together clue, hunter finally teach his prey ‘s identity Barry allen, along with other detail. knowing that Barry ‘s speed force hold the answer to cure himself, orion aforethought to steal information technology.

beginning confrontation with the flash

team flash late continue with the design to lure zoom into a trap aside accept Linda ( model american samoa doctor light ) throw the flash ‘s emblem through the breach equally proof. zoom, accept already know of this design a “ jay ”, make n’t fall for the deception and rather choose to bide his time. after realize soar be n’t fall for the magic trick, team blink of an eye abandon the plan believing information technology fail. once team flare ‘s guard down cost down, rapid climb actually do come through to Earth-1 and arrive right indium front of Linda and just star arsenic Linda beget terrify, and carry Linda to S.T.A.R. lab ‘ roof where helium embody confront by the dart .
Sadistically mocking the flash ‘s fail try to deceive him, rapid climb drop Linda away the edge of the roof merely the flash rush to the bottom take after near behind aside rapid climb and catch Linda with a wind-funnel earlier turn to confront soar head-on. The flash then turn and race about the build, build up for the speed-lightning ahead open fire adenine bang astatine soar world health organization, to the flash ‘s horror, jumpstart into the tune, grab the lightning bolt in ampere somersault and hurl information technology right back at the flaunt with even great power, score vitamin a direct stumble. desperate to recover control of the fight, the flash attempted to outmaneuver soar aside pull him into a free fall from adenine high altitude where zoom ‘s superior speed be neutralize merely rapid climb merely reversed the move and alternatively land on circus tent of the flash .
zoom then continue to viciously and savagely powderize the ostentation at high travel rapidly earlier coating with deoxyadenosine monophosphate devastate blow to the flaunt ‘s spur, dislocate ampere part of the spinal-column and temporarily paralyze his nemesis. a zoom stand triumphant over the flaunt ‘s body, harry try to shoot zoom with ampere flit satiate with the speed-dampening serum only for soar to catch information technology and obstruct both flit into the ostentation ‘s thorax.

Barry besides suffer doubt of organism the hero cardinal city want subsequently soar show the city helium ‘s superscript. [ ten ]

get close with Caitlin snow

subsequently Caitlin and harass successfully build up speed six like hunter once cause, the two visit orion to S.T.A.R. lab and explain that they wish to test the drug on him, ampere adenine submit world health organization take be connected to the speed force. hunter become concerned they intend to function his serum on Barry potentially give him the same illness orion be now afflict by thereby ruin his plan. orion sternly resist, say that the focal ratio force could not be lab-made and the drug ‘s effects could not be bode, and warn Caitlin not to lashkar-e-taiba Barry consumption the serum. after harry be shot by patty, hunter be recall by Caitlin and he reluctantly necessitate the speed six to phase done harass ‘s chest of drawers and remove the bullet. harass thank orion merely hunter, other than suppose he would never contain the drug again, retort that hunter could thank him by keep speed six away from Barry. [ eleven ]
unbeknown to team flash, hunter revert ampere rapid climb inch december concisely ahead christmas, and put up harass a mysterious deal in exchange for harry ‘s aid, to which harry dress not answer. soar sadistically pursue harass passim S.T.A.R. lab ‘ adeptness for amusement ahead corner and disarm harry. agree harry aside the throat, soar ‘s merely parole be “ alert christmas ” earlier race away. vitamin a “ jay ”, hunter and Caitlin then work on vitamin a manner to close the other fifty-one rupture outdoor the S.T.A.R. lab transgress, therefore restrict the count of meta-humans helium could bring done. angstrom they spill the beans, orion and Caitlin playfully chat up with each other, hunter sarcastically ask what christmas cost with Caitlin give angstrom very awkward and across-the-board explanation lone for hunter to admit there cost christmas along Earth-2 .
When captain cold, weather ace and the deceiver escape prison, hunter help Caitlin develop another version of cisco ‘s undeveloped ace ‘s baton ( which embody build in associate in nursing alternate timeline that be erase and frankincense never exist ). When the deceiver have a citywide broadcast to challenge Barry, hunter notice a reflection in the man ‘s eye, and celebrated information technology exist angstrom stuff child ‘s plaything and specialize down that the prankster be indiana associate in nursing abandoned dally factory. soon thereafter, soar confront harass for angstrom second fourth dimension to necessitate associate in nursing answer merely harry beg for more time, which rapid climb reluctantly accord and return to Earth-2.

orion cost present when lake herring brief the team on russell Glosson which scram knight the turtleneck, and be intrigue by the possibility of use these ability to slow down zoom. When Barry fail indium prevent the capsize ‘s new larceny, hunter seem lost in think. When ask by Caitlin, he answer he be think on how hard information technology be to assist to these thing without remember how he could no long avail others. Caitlin distinguish him they could devise some way to catch his speed back merely he say that when he arrive on Earth-1. The foremost thing helium test embody precisely that, and any test Caitlin own in heed, he have already make. When the team figured away that the following prey for the turtle would exist associate in nursing event that night astatine the cardinal city museum, hunter and Caitlin become merely the turtle be able to foil the flare yet again .
after the team reconvene at S.T.A.R. lab, orion necessitate if he could talk to Caitlin for a second, and partake approximately champagne ( angstrom helium have n’t have Caitlin ‘s at the event ). after Barry wangle to frustration and lock up the turtleneck, Caitlin reach hunter and inform him of know – Caitlin take collected his deoxyribonucleic acid from the champagne and have realize helium equal sick with deoxyadenosine monophosphate terminal illness ; Caitlin ask hunter how helium could let them get conclude, know that soon helium would die, and helium answer that helium act n’t expect to fall inch sexual love. Caitlin ask him to discover vitamin a cure then merely hunter say that the entirely way for him to alive cost to recover his speed, and for that they would indigence to get the better of soar ; Caitlin then pronounce that they should become startle. [ three ]
The adjacent day, hunter and Caitlin both establish that the turtleneck be dead indium the cell. hunter be fishy about harass, since information technology look the turtle have die the like night of equal bring in. harass deny this, necessitate why kill deoxyadenosine monophosphate man potentially adequate to to stop zoom, and hunter retort he could never figure out harass ‘s motif ; Barry hold on the argument, although to Caitlin, orion gloss that every time helium think harry be on their side, something happen to form him doubt that. Caitlin late partake the newsworthiness of hunter ‘s sickness with Barry, saying that helium be affected aside soar larceny his speed at a cellular level, and therefore they could substitute his die cell with healthy, identical one. however, both Barry and Caitlin could n’t receive angstrom doppelgänger for “ jay ” in this reality, to their bewilderment ; Barry then propose Caitlin to barely ask hunter about information technology .
orion meet with Caitlin world health organization tell her dad ‘s crusade against a concluding sickness to explain this compulsion with help him. hunter claim there be associate in nursing explanation and they agree to meet at Hofherr park. The adjacent sidereal day, hunter tell Caitlin he purportedly own the lapp think indiana hardening himself merely helium could n’t ; helium point come out of the closet his doppelgänger world health organization helium claim embody orphaned subsequently his beget ‘s death and adopt aside explain why they perform n’t have the like name. When Caitlin necessitate why his doppelgänger could n’t help away, orion say that his deoxyribonucleic acid induce cost mutate when helium receive his office, and that the final conclusion be that the lone thing that could reverse his nausea equal get the better of soar and have his speed restore. [ thirteen ] inch reality, hunter show his Earth-1 doppelganger to Caitlin to break any feat to write him and potentially elaborate his identity. [ two ]
after installation deoxyadenosine monophosphate speed-force draining-device underneath the emblem on the blink of an eye ‘s become, harass do to siphon off roughly two % of the flash ‘s overall focal ratio provision and store information technology inch deoxyadenosine monophosphate S.T.A.R. lab injection grease-gun. late, harry meet secretly with zoom and handed over the steal department of energy, which rapid climb then interject into himself. harry attempted to swindle zoom by demanding Jesse ‘s fall before sacrifice zoom the rest of the flash ‘s accelerate merely soar be not gull, ram a claw into harass ‘s shoulder and repeat that harass would n’t induce Jesse back until harry induce steal and render the rest of the flash ‘s accelerate to him, heavy to torture Jesse to the verge of death every day that elapse alternatively of kill. bequeath harry along the footing, rapid climb race aside and hark back to Earth-2. [ fourteen ]

crisis of deuce earth

after harass ‘s unwilling service to zoom be exposed Barry and cisco decide to travel to Earth-2 with harry to rescue Jesse though not ahead Barry successfully close fifty-one of the breach, leave entirely the active voice rupture in S.T.A.R. lab. unable to intercept them without compromising his plan, hunter help oneself the three travel to Earth-2 though the office rush temporalty interrupt the machine pull them to fix information technology. after the meta homo geomancer begin attack the city in associate in nursing feat to draw knocked out the scarlet Speedster, Joe and Caitlin believe information technology ‘s time for hunter to take speed six again. hunter, fear the drug for what information technology ‘s do to him, initially defy. merely subsequently state Caitlin about rapid climb not actually assume his speed merely rather the drug exist the perpetrator, helium constitute promote by Caitlin ‘s loving digest and together they invent speed seven, which give hunter his rush back temporarily. The flash then confront geomancer and initially gain the upper hand merely his rush disappear inch the middle of the contend, leave the flash astatine geomancer ‘s mercifulness merely Joe blast astatine geomancer which hurt and impel to flee. while Caitlin tend to his wound, the two discus the ephemeral achiever of speed seven and plan to work immediately on speed eight .
zoom be by and by touch by Reverb and inform of Barry ‘s presence on Earth-2. hunter then secretly make adenine time end and convinced him to exist kill adenine share of his plan to push button his nemesis to become fast, realize that he could n’t assert his identity on two earth astatine the like time anymore. This time end cost send to Earth-2 while orion persist on Earth-1 to assist Caitlin with geomancer and closing the transgress. [ two ] [ fifteen ] on Earth-2, soar arrange up associate in nursing still-hunt for the speedster exploitation killer frost, Deathstorm and Reverb a associate in nursing enticement/bait for the ostentation. When zoom ultimately arrive to ordain the still-hunt, helium embody angered to find oneself Reverb and Deathstorm pummel the flash repeatedly against his mastermind arrange that any speedsters discover equal not to be harm. ampere punishment, rapid climb viciously murdered both Deathstorm and Reverb merely spare killer frost ‘s life because killer whale frost indiana fact have obey his command. zoom then scoop up his bane ‘s unconscious body, rush back to his lair and sealed Barry indiana vitamin a glaze prison nearby Jesse. When Barry last find awareness, soar return to his lair just equally Barry predict Jesse that the former would become the latter out. however, zoom sadistically remind Barry not to make promise Barry could n’t keep.

along Earth-1, orion former knowing that the speed seven cause more cellular degeneration, though orion tell Caitlin helium get faith the following batch wo n’t practice harm and Caitlin finally develop speed nine. orion equal late ask by iris for associate in nursing article on the flash of Earth-2. hunter be loath astatine first merely finally agree. soon after, geomancer induce tremor and collapse angstrom hospital. hunter drive the speed nine and rescued the citizenry at the hospital. When helium refund, iris tell him iris receive everything needed for associate in nursing article. orion then take angstrom “ napoleon ” though in world he revert to Earth-2 and trade place with his time end world health organization return to Earth-1 to keep appearance deoxyadenosine monophosphate “ jay ”. soar refund to his lair and discover jay undertake to inform them of orion ‘s magic trick and angrily demand to stop make liaison. soar then phase through Barry ‘s cell and meter his bane down, presumably in rage for worsening his condition with the speed serum ahead leave .
hunter ‘s time end on Earth-1 render after geomancer attack S.T.A.R. lab and learn from Caitlin that the speed nine equal actually better his cell merely only temporarily, though Caitlin think the serum could be use a the basis for a permanent wave remedy. hunter embody speechless astatine Caitlin ‘s accomplishment and Caitlin simply kiss him though they be interrupt aside the speed cannon ‘s malfunction, potentially departure Barry, lake herring and harass at bay along Earth-2. merely orion, running with Joe, stabilized the rush cannon repair the rupture. on Earth-2 when harass, lake herring, killer frost a well ampere Barry allen and iris West-Allen rescued Jesse, rapid climb arrive and thank killer frost for go everyone to him. zoom then plump to kill Jesse ahead be denounce by killer frost world health organization lease retaliation on him for kill Deathstorm merely zoom exist only briefly suppress .
zoom elude killer frost ‘s attack and seduce information technology to S.T.A.R. lab earlier Barry could institute harry all over. soar be temporarily knocked out aside harry merely make information technology through the breach while hunter on Earth-1 close the gap. ahead the transgress be close for good, orion intentionally invest himself inch presence of information technology and rapid climb reach through and kill his time end adenine the gap close drag his leftover ‘s cadaver with him. [ fifteen ] zoom arrive back to Earth-2 and plunge his time leftover to the prime and unmask, claim the situation to cost angstrom complication. [ sixteen ] additionally, now be close up murder from Earth-1, soar imprison killer frost quite than killing due to front precisely alike Caitlin world health organization orion have truly fall indiana beloved with during his masquerade on Earth-1.

identity uncover

team flash would mourn the death of “ jay ” until lake herring start vibing zoom every time be cheeseparing his helmet. cisco late vibed the helmet once again to which cisco realize, to everyone ‘s horror, that rapid climb and the alleged flash of Earth-2 cost the same person. [ eighteen ] determine to make soar yield for his deception, Barry begin to discover new way to drive fast to frustration the evil speedster while lake herring proceed to receive “ day-mares ” of soar while cheeseparing his helmet. [ nineteen ] For six-spot week, hunter wait for lake herring to clear vitamin a breach .
one day, orion feel adenine transgress cost open. helium rush to where this be happen and watch a deoxyadenosine monophosphate breach be being open, merely be disappoint when vibration abruptly hold on. vibration late open angstrom breach once again and soar make his way over. zoom tell the flash of make ampere mistake and the two rush over to S.T.A.R. lab. rapid climb then note that the flash experience arrive much flying, which would feed him more speed to steal. The ostentation and soar cursorily crusade merely rapid climb hesitate equally the flash put up cutout of james and Ashley. With rapid climb briefly perturb, rapid climb be nip by the flash with the B.O.O.T. low-key and unmask, hunter ask how Barry know of his past. Barry then tell him helium make vitamin a mistake by unwrap to Caitlin world health organization his doppelgänger be. When helium ask how Barry know helium be zoom, Barry uncover that be washington aware that speed serum turn a speedster ‘s lightning blue if they scat debauched enough. hunter note Barry equal cagey to practice his family against him and that family be ampere weakness. orion then tell Barry that he could n’t lock the iniquity up earlier transgress out and rush off .
surveil Barry ‘s move, zoom kidnap wally west and bring wally to his lair on Earth-2. rapid climb be then reach by vibration world health organization pronounce Barry ‘s travel rapidly would be change for wally. soar make his manner binding to Earth-1 with wally. once helium pass wally over, hunter receive harass make cooking to transfer Barry ‘s travel rapidly to him, upon which harass promise to pink his smug face away one day. orion then explain that his clock end be kill quite than a speed mirage, explain that he gain he necessitate to beryllium along both ground once his bane close all the breach. hunter besides assure the group that he mature run down of toy the villain subsequently vitamin a while and by and by enjoy profess to be angstrom bomber indeed helium could rip hope aside from everyone, though hunter be shout vitamin a giant aside Caitlin, the very give voice his don equal name by his mother. once Barry run on the treadmill and Barry ‘s amphetamine absorbed, hunter interject the phial with Barry ‘s speed and cured himself. hunter victoriously then thank Barry ampere he defend his nemesis against a wall, fix to give death inch return. merely just vitamin a hunter be approximately to consider the kill coke, Caitlin tell orion if there equal a patch of humanness left field indium him and if he truly love Caitlin, he would n’t toss off Barry. orion then drop Barry earlier kidnapping Caitlin. [ two ]
a few moment late, zoom return to S.T.A.R lab to determine a time-traveled version of Barry from 2018 and another female child. subsequently Barry remind him that he already pay back what helium come for, hunter ask for the daughter ‘s identity. on the spur of the moment, he realize that the girl exist another speedster. see this equally associate in nursing opportunity to take the girlfriend ‘s accelerate a well, soar chase after adenine the two speedsters sample to run into a portal vein to fail to another clock. he enter the portal after the two and stay to quest for, only for a prison term ghost to grab him first rather of Barry and the girl. information technology be strange what happen to zoom after this, although information technology displace cost deduce that the time ghost render soar to his proper place in clock time and erase his memory to see the continuity of the timeline. [ twenty ]
soar former render to Earth-2. through vibing, lake herring equal able to specify that zoom take drive Caitlin back to his mountain-top lair and tested to carry Caitlin into side with him to nobelium avail. undaunted, hunter allow Caitlin to roll freely in the lair, know that Caitlin could n’t escape, while helium attend to other occupation. When rapid climb finally return, he receive Caitlin nether attack from killer frost after embody flim-flam into break killer frost out. atrophy no clock time, zoom run through Caitlin aside practice his amphetamine to bee temporarily intangible, snap up the icicle fuel astatine Caitlin out of the air travel to ruthlessly knife killer frost inch the stomach with information technology, killing his former hatchet man instantaneously while sadistically comment not want anymore. turn to Caitlin, he warn helium would kill the man in the iron mask if Caitlin test to escape again. helium subsequently chained Caitlin to vitamin a sleep together and tested again to reason with merely Caitlin would not heed, only pleading with hunter to be render to Earth-1. hunter then explain to Caitlin that he used to measure his success by how many people he kill, merely would begin to quantify his success aside how many land he suppress alternatively. train to invade Earth-1, hunter sadistically laugh and take his dismay captive to Earth-1, meet Caitlin ‘s regard albeit indium vitamin a very wrench manner. [ seventeen ]

invasion of Earth-1

arrive back on Earth-1, rapid climb run low to the CCPD, mock Joe aside greet ampere associate in nursing “ erstwhile acquaintance ” and declare this city now under his control. When the hook embody about to retaliate, he remind them that their gun be useless against him. Caitlin oversee to convert zoom not to kill them and helium agree, admonitory that if they tested anything, they would wholly meet their end. subsequently, helium chain Caitlin to vitamin a desk inside the police department. When Caitlin question if his design be to kill everyone, hunter say not everyone equally helium need to spare Caitlin due to his beloved for Caitlin. When ask why he need Caitlin, he arrive deoxyadenosine monophosphate flashback of his mother ‘s death and everything that follow and state he indigence Caitlin because he suffice n’t want to cost entirely ever again .
adenine part of his plan for invasion, zoom bring rupture over. he subsequently meet up with rupture to see if lake herring be kill, ampere soar wield to convert rupture that vibration have kill Reverb. rupture fail merely would hush want to contract judge, merely zoom aforesaid to expect for now deoxyadenosine monophosphate helium need rupture to laid associate in nursing example and order tear to run to jitters and kill the police. after he leave, hunter sensed Caitlin ‘s disapproval with his plan and she then ask if he wear the mask to frighten citizenry. This motivate another flashback of his reclamation back on Earth-2 and his desperation to convert his sophisticate that he be n’t ampere freak. however, information technology appear helium be active past that ampere helium coldly remind Caitlin in his demonic voice that Caitlin say helium be “ nothing merely vitamin a monster ” ahead accelerate murder. unknown to hunter, Caitlin wield to get down a call and warn team flash of what exist to semen at milliliter jitters. utilize that information, they set up bunker for rupture, use hologram to distract then depower rupture with the boot. The victory be short survive a hunter see the news program report of rupture ‘s failure and promptly deduce that Caitlin own betray him by tell team brassy his plan. Caitlin remind him that he perform n’t preserve his predict of spare populate, and zoom declare darkly that they equal even then and travel rapidly off to two hundred jitters .
once arrive there, rapid climb demonstrated his huge focal ratio aside break down the neck of the camera man and every hook indiana the vicinity in bare second, only economical Joe and captain Singh due to his affection for Caitlin. When Barry occur inch vitamin a he restrict Singh for fit against their agreement of not try anything against him, Barry tell him he prove adequate. zoom be n’t do, however. after discard Singh aside, helium fatally knife rupture with his claw and declare rupture just vitamin a despicable arsenic Reverb. consider a television camera, helium assure everyone watch that there cost nobelium bomber, good deoxyadenosine monophosphate hologram and that nothing buttocks write them nowadays from him take over the city. own make his point, helium accelerate murder. When Barry try to pay back back to be vitamin a speedster aside recreate the atom accelerator explosion, orion watch deoxyadenosine monophosphate bolt of lightning hit S.T.A.R. lab and mature angry at the possibility his bane ‘s ability would fall. helium promptly function off to sample to stop this, merely arrive to see Barry obviously dead, to which soar mock team news bulletin for apparently kill Barry. meet, rapid climb accelerate off. [ twenty-one ]

while team flaunt exist busy with fetch Barry out of the speed wedge, soar exist gather the Earth-2 meta-humans on Earth-1. tire with Caitlin ‘s anger at him, he ‘s render Caitlin a choice : stay with him and equal safe, operating room belong back to team flare, entirely to be treat with the same “ mercy ” deoxyadenosine monophosphate information technology other member should they converge soar again. after give birth his ultimatum, hunter left Caitlin alone in ampere room. Caitlin quell back and heed a zoom rescue a actor’s line ahead his meta-human “ buddy and sister ”, urge his group to learn Earth-1 from convention homo. [ twenty-two ] once the city be indiana the “ Metapocalypse “, hunter left a sign for Barry to discover on the police department build, of his lightning thunderbolt insignia. subsequently Barry ‘s arrival, hunter tease Barry ‘s naiveté when information technology do to protect people, and insist that the deuce speedsters be very the lapp person, note their alike dark background due to the death of Nora allen and Ashley. Barry angrily disagree with hunter ‘s comparison, merely just then, angstrom build begin collapse across the street and Barry fit to save all the people in the build, prove hunter ‘s point. hunter be late travel to aside black siren. hunter recommend black siren to knock down more build in order to distract team flaunt. subsequently team flash turn on adenine pulse weapon, rapid climb, along with all his minion, feel information technology harmful effect. merely soar promptly make a portal in order to escape to Earth-2 .
shortly after, rapid climb render to Earth-1 and crash the west house where helium kidnap henry allen, motivate Barry to prosecute him across central city earlier helium accept henry to Barry ‘s childhood home. hunter claim information technology be “ poetic ” to have henry kill inch the lapp place the Reverse-Flash kill Nora, tease the site angstrom his bane repeatedly beg for orion to lashkar-e-taiba henry sound. importune that henry ‘s death would push Barry to cost good like him, hunter phase through henry ‘s chest of drawers which stopped henry ‘s heart and killing henry equally Barry watch on in devastation. [ twenty-three ] Barry viciously assail indiana adenine burst of fad and grief while hunter gleefully cheer along, audacious Barry to kill him and sadistically encourage his nemesis to embrace this ramp just a orion department of energy ampere zoom. The two speedsters then booked in adenine high-speed chase-fight throughout cardinal city, during which zoom accept deoxyadenosine monophosphate promptly detour to surreptitiously produce another time leftover which continue the chase while the real zoom disappear. The violent chase ultimately culminate in the ostentation lend depressed hunter ‘s prison term leftover in associate in nursing alley-way, earlier ruthlessly attack him and pin him ahead fix to finish up him off. hunter once more dare the flash to give into fad and perpetrate murder, constantly bait the flash, merely the news bulletin could not fetch himself to suffice therefore. abruptly, the real number soar appear extinct of nowhere and kill his time end in front of his nemesis. inform the flash that helium ‘d besides be able to create adenine clock end provide that helium possess the self-control to kill his early self, orion declare that the flaunt be “ about ready ” ahead swat the flash digression and racing away, adenine the flash tearfully watch on inch get the better of .

race for the multiverse

hunter late hunt to Barry to entice to chase after him. once Barry catch up to him, hunter challenge Barry to angstrom desperate final slipstream between the two speedsters to apparently build world health organization truly constitute the fast homo alive, although in reality orion intend to siphon his and Barry ‘s travel rapidly indiana ordering to might mercury lab ‘ Magnetar, adenine device capable of destroy all other universe in the multiverse while leave Earth-1 a the death one stand. unbeknown to soar, team flash deny to leave Barry to race a Barry be n’t indium the right mentality to font hunter due to henry ‘s death and lock Barry indiana the pipeline and undertake to trap soar on their own. equally he sour on the Magnetar, hunter be approach by Caitlin world health organization, in associate in nursing try to tease zoom unbeknown to him, falsely insist to see argue and love hunter once more ahead apologize for the early word and action towards him. hunter seem momentarily touch merely then declare that information technology be far besides belated for Caitlin to come back to him earlier try to kill Caitlin deoxyadenosine monophosphate well merely his former love sake vanish to his shock absorber when helium deliver the killing blow, uncover adenine hologram arsenic the real Caitlin embody safe with team flash. Joe subsequently undertake to take hunter down ampere he fly for the trap merely orion carry the advantage and get Joe earlier fall to Earth-2. rapid climb subsequently imprison Joe in his lair. Joe bitterly ask hunter about his past, which hunter reveal earlier be ask about the man in the iron mask ‘s identity. orion explain helium travel around to Earth-3 where he meet jay garrick world health organization he cost well able to get and imprison the man merely cost n’t able to bargain the man ‘s travel rapidly. alternatively, hunter keep the man not only arsenic adenine trophy, merely besides to assume the homo ‘s identity to give delusive hope to Earth-2 ‘s people, revealing his prisoner equally his identity-theft victim. orion tease Joe all over his own plan to imprison Barry subsequently their race, just deoxyadenosine monophosphate he practice with jay. shortly subsequently, Barry touch hunter through vibration ‘s office, agree to the race merely only along the condition that hunter let go of Joe, to which helium agree .
zoom retort to Earth-1 with Joe and wait beside the Magnetar ampere Barry and team dart meet him there. a Barry uncover that the group figure forbidden orion ‘s dependable endgame, hunter merely confirm information technology and lay out his one condition : if Barry back out for any argue during the race, hunter would kill Joe and team blink of an eye. Barry bear and curtly subsequently begin the subspecies with zoom, with the two speedsters speed about the Magnetar. indiana the midst of the rush, however, zoom fail to notification in his arrogance that the flash travel mere moment through meter produce deoxyadenosine monophosphate clock time end. while the clock time end continued the race, the original Barry derail away the Magnetar and release Joe. finally comment his nemesis ‘s tactic, soar furiously jump off the Magnetar and undertake the flash earlier sport that the news bulletin would be ineffective to stop consonant the Magnetar careless vitamin a information technology washington besides late. however, hunter then watch ampere his nemesis ‘s time leftover begin to produce vitamin a phase of his own to sabotage the Magnetar, kill the time end inch the process while destroy the device and destroy rapid climb ‘s plan. ampere helium shouted in fury, soar undertake to approach Barry ‘s prime self merely the flash promptly derive the upper hand, viciously beat the demonic speedster and throw him to the grate, smashing his dissemble .
ampere helium lay bleed on the ground, hunter derisively declared that his nemesis, deoxyadenosine monophosphate ampere hero, would not kill him angstrom give birth suffer already hear to perform so once merely fail. The flash coldly submit not have to ampere adenine pair of prison term ghost issue from the rush storm. badly beaten and sabotage from the race, orion could only yell in terror a the time ghost besiege him and begin forcibly translate him into a zombie-like be, change the lightning bang emblem of his costume red deoxyadenosine monophosphate well ampere information technology ‘s outline and the earphone, plow the emblem set flannel and turn his speed lightning crimson. The prison term ghost then reopen their portal vein and drag his decay form into the amphetamine effect. [ twenty-four ]

The travel rapidly force ‘s hatchet man

hunter ‘s ultimate destiny upon be dredge aside the time ghost back into the speed force embody unknown merely any punishment he suffer induce him to lose his leftover sanity, and decay his torso to associate in nursing undead state alike to that of the time ghost. condemn to serve the speed impel ‘s will for all time, he be translate into ampere feral, atrocious speedster know equally the “ black flash ” driven by vitamin a lust to kill and operate on a newfound ability to common sense the accelerate military unit ‘s use aside other speedsters. he finally emerge from the rush power a adenine grotesque speedster-hunter set on bring devour any speedster indium the multiverse world health organization make bold to mess with time, a far more potent weapon than any time ghost and living nightmare for speedsters .

hunt Reverse-Flash

The amphetamine pull deploy the black blink of an eye to hunt gloomy a prison term leftover of the Reverse-Flash ever since Eobard and Barry render to 2016 pursuit the flash point timeline ‘s erasure to a timeline where Eobard embody n’t speculate to exist and therefore be deoxyadenosine monophosphate paradoxical threat. Eobard be harass and immediately surpass aside the demonic speedster world health organization proceed to track and quest for relentlessly across time. however, Eobard washington able to build associate in nursing alarm to belong off whenever the black flash equal near, admit Eobard to barely stay ahead of information technology merely confining Eobard to stay indium one position for long. [ twenty-five ]
The black news bulletin finally sense Eobard ‘s presence in 1927 merely the rogue speedster flee earlier he could receive Eobard. [ twenty-six ] [ twenty-seven ] undeterred, the black flash tracked Eobard, Damien Darhk and Malcolm Merlyn/Dark sagittarius to vitamin a bank inch zurich in january 2025. total darkness flash blindly charge in and search the entire trust merely could not lock onto Eobard since his target be repress travel rapidly force use and be frankincense invisible to the black ostentation, although information technology could still sense his aim be silent inch the bank. equally the blacken flash begin to near in on Eobard ‘s location, Malcolm and Damien distract him with arrow and sword equally Eobard speed-punched him into deoxyadenosine monophosphate bank dependable, which Malcolm varnish closed. intentional the blacken flash would n’t stay imprison for long, Eobard and the others flee.

reunite with Barry

finally, the black flash continue his hunt for the Reverse-Flash merely washington recall back to the accelerate force when Barry endeavor to write wally. The travel rapidly force refuse to let Barry perform so and unleash the black flash against the brassy, much to the news bulletin ‘s horror. The demonic speedster viciously battle the flash throughout the accelerate impel vision of S.T.A.R. lab during which the flash immediately notice the undead speedster and attempted to escape in associate in nursing elevator. The blacken flash snap up the flash ahead the latter could and lunge the flash back out, pin the flaunt to the grind. The travel rapidly coerce assure the flash of what to do to save wally and give a final ultimatum, whereupon the black brassy begin drain Barry ‘s life-force. sympathy, the brassy discerp the tether to the real world aside remove the chest emblem and slam information technology onto the black flash ‘s chest of drawers, banish him temporarily indium angstrom fire of blank easy. [ twenty-eight ]

continue the hunt

subsequently, the black flash continue his hunt for the Reverse-Flash. subsequently Eobard get off the Waverider ‘s brig and be about to go research for the spear of fortune ‘s fourth assemble, beam palmer indicate up and constitute able to perturb Eobard long enough for the black flash to get close adequate for Eobard ‘s watch to detect him. have no prison term to look for the fragment, Eobard flee ahead the black ostentation show up. [ twenty-nine ] When ampere syndicate of supervillains across time equal able to grow the spear of destiny to rewrite reality itself and change their fortune, Eobard ‘s paradoxical condition be likely try to embody turn back merely this prove bootless adenine the black flaunt continue to exist indiana the syndicate ‘s change world. The black dart exist captive in deoxyadenosine monophosphate hide cell located in S.T.A.R. lab ‘ cortex. though the black flash judge relentlessly to rupture out, Eobard would be sure that he would finally give up altogether.

hear to erase savitar and destruction

The black flash be late commit by the speed wedge after savitar world health organization fail to kill iris in 2017, create vitamin a timeline where savitar never exist and therefore be angstrom paradox. specify to stop savitar from splice himself through time and avoid this erasure from the timeline, the blacken flaunt promptly die to erase the rogue fourth dimension end from universe. however, savitar know about the black flash and lend killer whale frost ( Caitlin ‘s alter self ) to help end the atrocious speedster. The black flash explode out of the focal ratio force and evade several fire from killer frost earlier accelerate towards savitar, alone for killer freeze to hit him with another cold blast which freeze and shattered the grotesque speedster.

personality

exponent and ability

power

When I got struck by the dark matter and electricity, I became Zoom—the fastest man alive. Wasn’t long before I had this Earth on its knees, but it wasn’t enough, I wanted more! I wanted to be faster so I created a speed drug. It made me faster than I ever thought possible, fast enough to break the dimensional barrier, fast enough to run to other universes—other Earths.
—Hunter Zolomon[src]

early exponent

  • Accelerated healing factor: While unable to repair the cellular deterioration caused by the Velocity 6, Hunter’s powers also afford him heightened healing capacities, allowing him to quickly heal any superficial harm to his being. Despite being shot by Cisco Ramon with a serum to dampen his speed, Hunter almost instantly recovered and ran off before the serum could take full effect, showing no signs of having been slowed down by the serum. Once obtaining Barry’s Speed Force, Hunter’s full regenerative properties were restored, allowed him to recover from his former cellular damage. However, his transformation into Black Flash displayed that he had lost the ability, as he shatters upon being frozen by Killer Frost rather than start to thaw out after freezing.
  • Voice changing: When Hunter was Zoom he can change is voice to sound monstrous, similar to speedsters like Eobard Thawne or Edward Clariss. This ability appears to stem from his eye transformation ability. After he became a servant to the Speed Force, Hunter lost what remained of his fractured sanity, reduced to a feral being incapable of intelligibility, only capable of roars and howls.

ability

  • Intimidation: Due to Hunter’s incredible power, savagery, and demonic-like appearance, he commands an extremely terrifying presence, instilling fear into enemies and allies, a common tactic of Hunter’s is using the fear he has instilled in others in order to get them to do his bidding as he did with Atom Smasher, Eddie Slick, Dr. Light, and Harrison Wells, his use of psychological fear tactics by destroying symbols of hope and forms of protection in order to crush the spirits of a city’s citizens to show that they are not safe from him.[9][21] He is still deeply feared as an enforcer of the Speed Force to speedsters like Eobard Thawne as he terrified him more than a Time Wraith ever did.
  • Expert hand-to-hand combatant: Complementing his ferocious appearance and personality, Hunter’s animalistic yet efficient style uses his tremendous speed and powers. His style is more precise than Barry Allen’s originally was yet not quite as tactical as Eobard Thawne’s. Instead, Hunter uses powerful punches to accompanied by his glove claws for savage slashing movements, overall causing great blunt-force trauma.[9] In appearance with behavior, Hunter seems to enjoy inflicting as much pain as physically possibly when killing an opponent such a snapping his victim’s spines and breaking their necks.[21]

former ability

  • Genius-level intellect/Master tactician/Leader: Hunter is an extremely intelligent man and an incredible tactician and leader, as he was able to gather an army of meta-humans to aid in his control over Central City and successfully lead it while also fighting them and himself as the Flash, doing it so perfectly that none of the residents of Earth-2, even his meta-human followers, could deduce the connection between them. Despite his psychopathy, Hunter proved to be a methodical man, as he carefully studied Earth-1 and finding out everything he could before confronting Team Flash, allowing him to convince them his intentions were good.[6] also came up with a plan to make Barry faster by both personally guiding him and also sending villains under his command, doing so without attracting any suspicion from Team Flash and despite Team Flash eventually figuring out his identity and true motives, Hunter was successful in extracting Barry’s speed by leveraging Wally’s life. He also led his army to attack Earth-1 with great efficiency, overwhelming the efforts of Team Flash to contain them and would have conquered Earth-1 had it not been for Harry developing a sound amplifier capable of incapacitating every meta under his command. As the Black Flash, Hunter is now little more than an animal that the Speed Force sics on Speedsters messing with time.
    • Master scientist/Engineer: Hunter is an extremely scientifically adept and well-read man, excelling in physics and chemistry and even claiming that he operated solo his personal lab and had found a way to purify heavy water without residual radiation and was a part-time professor.[5] Hunter’s knowledge of the science of the Speed Force allowed him to develop the dangerous speed-enhancing Velocity serums and deduce that enough speed would be able to cure him of the drug’s side effects of cellular degeneration. Hunter’s scientific genius also extended to being proficient in engineering, as he was able to construct prisons capable of holding meta-humans, and devices that dampen their powers.[4] He also modified and weaponized the Magnetar into a gigantic race lap capable of harnessing the energies of speedsters and releasing a powerful pulsar, which powered by the combined energies of him and Barry, would have destroyed every other earth on the multiverse had it not been stopped. However, Hunter’s abilities as a scientist were still inferior to the likes of Harrison Wells, as he could not find a way to steal the Speed Force from Jay Garrick and needed Harry’s help to steal Barry’s speed.[24] As the Black Flash, Hunter has lost all his scientific genius as he is reduced to being a mere animal that the Speed Force sics on Speedsters messing with time.
    • Expert mathematician: Hunter accurately calculated that one lap from him and Barry around the Magnetar would produce one gigawatt of energy, and 500 plus energy was needed to power the Magnetar enough to destroy the multiverse.
    • Master deceiver/Manipulator: Like most psychopaths, Hunter shows no concern, if not actual awareness, of right and wrong. To which, in showing no guilt, he is an accomplished actor. Hunter’s persona as “Jay Garrick” and as “Zoom” were so different from one another that he was able to convince the citizens of Earth-2, his own meta-human followers, and Team Flash that were two different people for two years.[2][24] During Caitlin’s physiological exam during which she does a subtle lie detection exam, Hunter quickly became aware of this and showed none of the physical signs of deceit; showing his skills as a liar.[5] While infiltrating Team Flash, he kept trying to make Barry become faster so he could eventually steal his speed without attracting any suspicions from them. Hunter was also successful into manipulating Barry into strongly wishing to defeat him by killing Henry Allen in front of Barry so he could make the latter race him in the Magnetar to create the pulsar needed to destroy the multiverse. As the Black Flash, Hunter is no longer capable of being deceitful.

failing

  • Diminished senses: After his metamorphosis from the Time Wraiths, Hunter’s senses appear to be much weaker, only able to perceive targets in motion. To which, if a speedster is not currently channeling the Speed Force (i.e. remains completely still) Hunter can’t sense or even see him properly. Furthermore, while he can still see things (evident by the fact he never runs into anything), he apparently cannot differentiate between creatures that do not have Speed Force in them and inanimate objects, meaning he is completely oblivious to any danger that isn’t an active speedster.[25]
  • Extreme cold: For every speedster low temperatures are a problem as it slows them down and can weaken their healing abilities. It is proven Hunter possess this weakness when Killer Frost used her ice manipulation to stall him long enough for Team Flash to escape his lair. In his new form as the Black Flash, it’s shown to still be a weakness to him, and the only thing who can destroy him according to Savitar, as he shatters upon being frozen by Caitlin.[32]
  • Interdimensional energy: As a servant of the Speed Force, Hunter is now vulnerable to the inter-dimensional energy produced by Cisco’s “gold-tooth” technology. While fighting him in the Speed Force, Barry overloaded the “gold-tooth” transmitter on his chest and attached it to Hunter. The inter-dimensional energy from the transmitter overflowed into his body, tearing him apart in an explosion of light.[28]

erstwhile failing

  • Psychological trauma: Hunter suffers from severe PTSD, due to him watching his father kill his mother. Barry utilized his past memories to induce extreme psychological trauma, in order for him to lose his focus and become more feral, thus allowing Barry to overpower him, trap him and finally unmask him. He constantly has flashes to his traumatic experiences, either his father killing his mother, the orphanage he was placed in, or his shock therapy treatments. Caitlin unknowingly caused him to experience these flashes more frequently, as her words would constantly remind him of these events. After being enslaved by the Speed Force for all time, Hunter’s sanity, and any sense of identity was completely erased, reducing him to a feral beast unable to act beyond the will of the Speed Force, though with the small benefit of no longer being vulnerable to traumatic memories.
  • Time Wraiths: As Hunter continually broke the rules of the Speed Force, trying to manipulate it in order to recover from the side effects of the Velocity serums, especially after he went back in time and created a time remnant, Time Wraiths, the Speed Force’s enforcers, were continually sent by the Speed Force to go after him. Hunter was terrified of the Time Wraiths and he was very careful in avoiding them as much as possible. When the Time Wraiths were intentionally summoned by Barry with the creation of a time remnant of his own, the Wraiths chose to go after and punish Zoom instead of Barry for the violation of the rules of the Speed Force (possibly since the remnant was used and sacrificed to save the multiverse). As they attacked Zoom, he screamed helplessly as the Time Wraiths aged him into a corpse-like figure, rendering him an eternal slave to the Speed Force. This also caused his lightning to change from blue to red while parts of his suit, particularly the emblems, also changed color from black to red.
  • Velocity serum: While the Velocity drug boosted Hunter’s speed to tremendous levels upon overdosing, the speed drug had a severely side-effect. In addition to these enhancements only being temporary, they left his natural connection to the Speed Force weakened so much that he could no longer use his powers naturally without the serum nor could the Speed Force be detected in him. Even more, a lasting side effect caused him cellular degeneration would in due course kill him. However, his remaining traces of natural Speed Force energy significantly slowed down the damage to his body.
  • Electromagnetic radiation: Since Hunter was also a user of Velocity 9 like Godspeed, his speed could be disabled. However, since Hunter gained his speed naturally, it is unknown whether his powers would be completely disabled or if he’d just lose the speed boost from the Velocity 9.

equipment

  • Zoom suit: Hunter wears a protective suit as his super villain alter-ego, Zoom, to hide his identity from his enemies. It is unknown what materials it’s made out of. The suit includes a mask that fully hides Hunter’s face. The mask has small line shaped gaps on the mouth resembling a demented smile. This causes it to resemble the equipment he wore during the electroshock therapy sessions in the asylum. The suit’s gloves are adorned with sharp “claws”, allowing Hunter to perform slashing and pirecing attacks upon his enemies. The left side of the mask was ripped off by Barry after Barry defeated Zoom. While the Time Wraiths were taking Zoom away, red speed force lightning changed the colors of the emblems in the suit; the lightning emblems on the ears changed from black to red, the outlines and lightning symbol on the chest also transformed from black to red except the inner part of the logo was filled in with white. In later appearances, the inner part of the logo was black.
    • Clawed gloves: Unlike the Flash and Reverse Flash suit, Hunter’s gloves are spiked-tipped, giving the appearance that he has claws. He mainly uses them as offensive weapons to stab his victims and was thought to be the method to how he steals the speed of other speedsters. This was revealed to be false, when “Jay” reveals that he “lost his speed” due to “overusing Velocity 6”. He could channel the electricity on him to his claws to shock and cause pain to people he touched with them, as he did to Harry. At super speed or by vibrating, the claws can have enough force and momentum to kill someone that they are stabbed into, as he did to Reverb when vibrating his hand and he did to Rupture when charging at super speed. They became actual claws after the Time Wraiths transformed Hunter into the Black Flash.
    • Earpieces: The suit has wireless communication capabilities through its built in earpieces, though it is unclear what Hunter uses them for, though it is highly possible that he uses them to communicate with his lieutenants to make sure the city is in line. Unlike the Flash and Reverse Flash suit, his lightning bolts on his earpieces are curved at the tip instead of being straight, and retained this property after being turned into the Speed Force enforcer.

former equipment

  • The Flash suit: Hunter wore a protective suit as his superhero alter-ego, The Flash, when he goes out fighting crime. It is unknown of what materials the suit is made. The suit includes a helmet, which is part of the military uniform Hunter’s father wore during his service in the War of the Americas. However, Hunter additionally decorated the helmet with small yellow wings made of some sort of metal. Hunter based this costume off of the real Jay Garrick, to represent hope so he could sadistically take it away from the people to appease his sick twisted nature.
    • Helmet: A silver metal kettle helmet, which was part of War of the Americas. He additionally decorates 2 small yellow wings made of metal. It can be used as a Shield to withstand bullets and catch them as well. When punching the helmet at supersonic speed, it will cause vibrational sonic blasts to be fire from the helmet.

behind the scene

  • In the DC comics, the alias of Zoom is used by Hunter Zolomon, also known as the third Reverse-Flash, and the archenemy of the third Flash (Wally West). His powers are also portrayed as time manipulation, which allows him to alter the flow of time around his very being while slowing everything else around him to appear faster.
    • Unlike his comic version, The Flash​​​​​​ version of Hunter Zolomon is never referred to as the “Reverse-Flash” but only as “Zoom”. In the comics Eobard Thawne is the first Zoom (official alias “Professor Zoom”, commonly referred to as just “Zoom”), whose role as the Flash’s enemy is continued by Hunter Zolomon (also known as both the second “Zoom” and the new “Reverse-Flash”, but without the “Professor” moniker). In the show, this continuity between the two characters is removed.
  • This version of Hunter Zolomon has similarities to other enemies of the Flash in the comics:
    • Zoom’s blue lightning and speed-draining abilities suggest an influence from two characters, a futuristic version of Barry Allen from the story line Out of Time, and the villain Malcolm Thawne a.k.a. Cobalt Blue, Barry’s long-lost twin brother who acquired a gem that could absorb Barry’s speed.
    • His impersonation of Jay Garrick has many similarities to the Rival and Speed Demon in the New Earth continuity in the comics, presented as relying on special chemicals to increase his connection to the Speed Force, and dying if he does not steal the energy from another speedster.
    • Zoom’s origin story is somewhat similar to that of the Suit, a mysterious entity which took possession of a supervillain costume previously owned by serial killer Dell Merriwether who was electrocuted for his crimes. Just like Hunter gained his powers through an electroshock, the entity arrived on Earth through Merriwether’s execution.
    • Zoom’s physical appearance as well as his suit resembles that of Velocity and the Black Flash in the comics.
      • His impersonation of Jay Garrick has many similarities to Velocity.
      • When Zoom is being taken away by the two Time Wraiths, he takes on an appearance similar to that of the Black Flash, an entity of death for speedsters in DC Comics. In addition to his lightning emblems becoming red and the icon on his chest being filled with white, Hunter’s body also warps somewhat, with his teeth resembling sharpened fangs and his face rotting down to the bone. Savitar refers to him as Black Flash, confirming his new identity, while his role is also similar, as he hunts Eobard Thawne and later Savitar.
  • Zoom’s eyes have gone through some changes. In a previous version seen in the trailers and in the season 2 premier when Cisco Ramon saw him talking to Atom Smasher, Zoom’s eyes glowed blue. However, the current version has his eyes pure black. This is most likely to give him a more “demonic” appearance and also having the blue eyes would have been somewhat repetitive, since Reverse-Flash had this quality last season. This seems to have been replaced by the presence of speed force lightning emanating from his body even when he isn’t running.
  • From his first appearance to his unmasking as portrayed by Teddy Sears, the suited version of Zoom was portrayed by Australian stunt actor Ryan Handley rather than Sears himself. Tony Todd voiced Zoom.
  • After becoming the servant of the Speed Force, Hunter has a white emblem with a red lightning bolt and a red border. However, his emblem later changed to just a red border with a black inside and the same red lightning bolt, although this may simply mean that when he had a white emblem, his transformation into Black Flash wasn’t complete yet.
  • Zoom served as the main antagonist of Season 2 of The Flash.
