To be fair, in the comics, Reverse Flash (Eobard Thawne) also went by the name Professor Zoom, and after his death was replaced by Hunter Zolomon, who took on the name of Zoom.īut this television version of Zoom looks more like a recurring theme in executive producer Geoff Johns’ work on the character of The Flash in comics. In the comics, pre-New 52, Zoom looked like this, not too far off from the television show’s Reverse Flash, played by Tom Cavanagh: Voiced by Tony Todd, but presumably not actually physically played by the imposing actor, Zoom turns out to look like this: He probably would have been content being the only speedster on Earth-2, but a rift opened and the villain discovered that there were other worlds to run through. What we got from Jay was that whoever Zoom is, he wants to be the only speedster. And, of course, Jay Garrick gave us the most background information in describing his prior fights with him. Prior episodes this season have hinted at him: Atom Smasher, Sand Demon, and King Shark all told Barry Allen that Zoom had sent them to kill him. After Tuesday night’s episode of The Flash, “The Fury of Firestorm,” the teaser next week’s episode five, “The Darkness and the Light,” gave us our first full look at the presumed big bad of the season, Zoom.
