[[folder:In General]]

----
* AdaptationNameChange: More of Adaptation Name ''Swap''. Given how many of Earth-2's residents are {{Evil Counterpart}}s to heroic figures from Earth-1, it's more akin to what the comics call Earth-3. Meanwhile, Earth-3 is the world where Jay Garrick, the real one, is from, and is more akin to Earth-2 in the comics.
* AlternateSelf: Some characters exist on multiple Earths. Though fully averted with the one seen in ''Series/{{Supergirl|2015}}'', which has yet to share a single character with the Franchise/{{Arrowverse}}. The ''Flash'' and ''Supergirl'' {{Crossover}} then confirmed that none of the characters here have counterparts there, though they both have Music/MariahCarey and "Cadmus" (it's more prominent in that universe, though. For now at least).
* AlternateUniverse: Hence the name "Other Earths". According to Prof. Stein, there are at least [[ArcNumber 52]] of them based on the number of dimensional breaches on the main one, which he dubs Earth-1.
* ExpendableAlternateUniverse: A trend in Season Two is that Barry has far less of a problem killing Earth-2 counterpart villains, as opposed to his ThouShaltNotKill vow for Earth-1 versions. The only known exception is Dr. Light.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: Two of the other Earths have their [[Series/TheFlash1990 own]] [[Series/{{Supergirl 2015}} show]].
* HufflepuffHouse: [[HeroOfAnotherStory Excluding the respective universes]] of ''Series/TheFlash1990'' and ''Series/{{Supergirl|2015}}'', only the Earth-2 characters are making their presence felt in the Franchise/{{Arrowverse}}. The Season 2 finale introduces an iconic character from Earth-3, though.
* InSpiteOfANail:
** All Earths apparently share the same cities. Central City, in particular, has been mentioned to exist in the Franchise/{{Arrowverse}} as well as both the universes where ''Series/TheFlash1990'' and ''Series/{{Supergirl|2015}}'' take place in.
** Cadmus exists in both the Franchise/{{Arrowverse}} and ''Series/{{Supergirl|2015}}'', though it appears to be more prominent in the latter's universe.
** Music/MariahCarey is a popular singer on both the Franchise/{{Arrowverse}} and ''Series/{{Supergirl|2015}}''[='=]s Earth.
** A character played by John Wesley Shipp was imprisoned because of an evil speedster. Henry Allen was MistakenForMurderer thanks to being the unintentional scapegoat for Eobard Thawne's murder of his wife Nora on Earth-1, while Jay Garrick from Earth-3 was kept as a "personal trophy" by Earth-2's Hunter Zolomon on the latter's universe.
* ThePresentDay: So far, only the main universe and the one where ''Series/{{Supergirl|2015}}'' is set in are confirmed to be this, in aesthetic. Earth-2 is also "present day" in time, but is a RetroUniverse in aesthetic.
* RetroUniverse: Earth-2 has people dressed like it's set in TheRoaringTwenties while the universe where ''Series/TheFlash1990'' is set in is implied to be like it's always TheEighties/Early [[TheNineties 90s]].
* {{Zeerust}}: Some Earths are set in a RetroUniverse but have ridiculously advanced technology.

----
* AlternateHistory:
** In "Flash Of Two Worlds," Hunter Zolomon mentions how his father fought in "The War of the Americas".
** Nora Allen is still alive during Barry's adulthood.
** Ronnie becomes the dominant pair in the Firestrom matrix and essentially [[AndIMustScream buries Stein within]].
** A number of characters who didn't become metahumans on Earth-1 (Al Rothstein, Eddie Slick, Linda Park, Caitlin Snow, Hunter Zolomon, Dante Ramon, Laurel Lance) were empowered, and some who had powers on Earth-1 don't have them here (Barry Allen, technically [[note]] his Earth-1 counterpart was also affected by the Particle Accelerator, but did not survive the mutation like he did [[/note]] Shay Lamden).
** Oliver Queen died in the Queen's Gambit shipwreck years ago, leading his father Robert to be stranded on Lian Yu and return to Starling City as The Hood/The Arrow.
** [[Music/{{Beyonce}} Beyonce Knowles]] is a senator. Have fun figuring out how the dominoes fell there.
** It is heavily implied that Eddie Thawne is still alive in this world, assuming that he is the "Eddie" written on Barry and Iris' phone contacts.
** Caitlin Snow has a younger brother. For the matter, she flunks med school.
** Harrison Wells has a daughter.
** Barring Eobard Thawne screwing with Earth-1's timeline, Harrison Wells' wife is long dead by the time of the Particle Accelerator explosion.
* AlternateSelf: Many characters exist on both Earths.
* AlternateUniverse: Hence the name "Earth-2".
* ArtDeco: Everything (architecture, interior and graphic designs, fashion) in this Earth looks like a futuristic [[TheRoaringTwenties 1920s]].
* {{Atlantis}}: Not only is it real, but it was never lost. Jay mentions he has a friend there, presumably ComicBook/{{Aquaman}}.
* ColorWash: Every scene taking place on Earth-2 has a golden tint to it, [[ColourCodedForYourConvenience to easily distinguish it from Earth-1]].
* CompositeCharacter: In the comics, Earth-2 is a world dominantly inhabited by superheroes, while Earth-3 is the one inhabited by supervillains. This version appears to combine the two, but it's clear that it has more Earth-3 influence as Jay Garrick as The Flash and Robert Queen as The Arrow are the only acknowledged heroes.
* DieselPunk: This Earth seems to be built around this aesthetic, specifically the Decopunk variation.
* {{Doppelganger}}: While they're technically [[AlternateSelf alternate selves]], this is how they are called by the main characters.
* EvilTwin: Most of the characters here are {{Evil Counterpart}}s to their Earth-1 counterparts, as was the case with Al Rothstein, Linda Park, Cap. Singh, Caitlin Snow, Ronnie Raymond and Cisco Ramon. The Harrison Wells of this earth is more {{Anti Hero}}ic than his (real) counterpart than outright evil.
* ExpendableAlternateUniverse: Deconstructed. They typically have this view towards the Earth-1 universe, which makes them remorseless about killing the Flash, and even their alternate selves, to get home.
** While the characters on Earth-1 certainly don't consider Earth-2 to be this, the writers seem to treat Earth-2 this way to some extent considering the number of counterparts killed off. The Earth-2 versions of Joe, Cisco, Ronnie, Stein, and Caitlin are all offed (mostly by Zoom) in a pretty short period of time.
* {{Foil}}: Most characters from this world tend to be {{Shadow Archetype}}s, if not an outright EvilTwin, to their respective Earth-1 counterparts, as well as [[GoodCounterpart the other way around]].
* InSeriesNickname: To avoid the OneSteveLimit below. For instance, the Harrison Wells from this world is called Harry by the characters from Earth-1.
* InSpiteOfANail:
** Earth-2 seems very different than Earth-1. Despite, this they have people with the exact same names and faces as those in Earth-1. Subverted in the case of Jay Garrick's Earth-1 doppelganger, who is named Hunter Zolomon. DoubleSubverted later when we find out that Jay's real name is also Hunter Zolomon.
** Oliver Queen died in the shipwreck on Earth-2, resulting in Robert becoming the Hood instead, though he likely would have had some pretty different experiences before being rescued.
** Harrison Wells' particle accelerator still caused a number of people to become metahumans (of course, here it was the real Wells, the empowering event was an actual accident, and the incident was nowhere near as destructive as on Earth-1).
** Ronnie Raymond and Martin Stein still fused into a version of Firestorm.
** CCPD still has a GreatDetective "West" (read: Iris). For the matter, Barry is still the department's premiere forensic scientist.
** Cisco Ramon, Caitlin Snow and Ronnie Raymond still found themselves working for the BigBad evil speedster, except in this Earth they did it willingly.
** Cisco Ramon and Caitlin Snow are still working with a speedster.
** Despite the different context, Floyd Lawton still ends up working with guns and earning himself the monicker "Deadshot" because of it.
** Despite the absence of Leonard Snart and Mick Rory (the former is even implied to be the City Mayor), an EvilDuo using ice and fire are still terrorizing Central City.
** A parental figure of Barry still dies. For the matter, one of Iris' parents still dies, assuming that Earth-2 Francine West didn't suffer the same fate as her Earth-1 counterpart.
** Hunter Zolomon still finds himself with a MissingMom and being sent to foster care as a result. Of course, this is assuming that he is telling the truth regarding his Earth-1 counterpart.
** Caitlin Snow and Ronnie Raymond are still married and she still ends up as a widow.
** Barring the CosmicRetcon, Cisco is still killed by the BigBad evil speedster. In the exact same manner, no less.
** Harrison Wells' wife still died on this earth although unlike her Earth-1 counterpart, her death wasn't caused by an evil speedster (as far as we know).
** Caitlin Snow was still raised by an EvilMatriarch.
** An evil speedster ends up impersonating someone outside of their own world. On Earth-1, Eobard Thawne came from the future and ended [[KillAndReplace killing and replacing]] Dr. Harrison Wells. Here, Hunter Zolomon travels to Earth-3, kidnaps Jay Garrick and uses the latter's identity to pose as a hero.
* MassSuperEmpoweringEvent: The metahumans got their powers from Earth-2 Dr. Wells' Particle Accelerator, which was much more low key than it's Earth-1 counterpart, as it exploded underground rather than above. (with the possible exception of Jay, who only mentions his own FreakLabAccident).
* MirrorUniverse: Despite being based on comic book Earth-2 (the {{Zeerust}} aesthetic and Golden Age equivalents), it also has more than a few elements borrowed from Earth-3, namely [[EvilCounterpart evil counterparts]] to good people and vice-versa. Zoom's gang in particular feels like a scaled-down version of the Crime Syndicate of America (Earth-3's EvilCounterpart to the JusticeLeague) complete with counterparts to Caitlin (Killer Frost), Ronnie (Deathstorm) and Cisco (Reverb).
* MonsterOfTheWeek: Many episodes deal with a new metahuman showing up to cause trouble.
* OneSteveLimit: They share the names of their Earth-1 counterparts.
* RetroUniverse: This world uses both modern-day and futuristic apps, but everyone's clothing are clearly the [[TheRoaringTwenties 1920s]] and [[TheGreatDepression 1930s]].
* RoguesGalleryTransplant: Some of them aren't/weren't enemies of Franchise/TheFlash in canon.
* SharpDressedMan: Majority of the males are dressed in a suit.
* SpotlightStealingSquad: This world along with its characters are basically hogging all the focus from the other ''48'' [[note]] ''Series/TheFlash1990'' and ''Series/{{Supergirl|2015}}'' have their own show. [[/note]] Alternate Earths (so far).
* WalkingSpoiler: Their entire existence if you haven't seen Season One.
* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: Most of the meta-humans went AxCrazy with their powers, causing chaos and destruction.
* {{Zeerust}}: Deliberately invoked. Although the year is the same as on "our" Earth, the buildings and vehicles are ArtDeco 1920s/1930s in appearance, most of the civilian fashions (especially women) look to be from the 1940s/1950s, and Jay Garrick's Flash costume looks like a 1930s/1940s pulp adventurer's with the leather jacket and a helmet design (stated to have originally been his father's combat helmet) taken out of American Army service prior to UsefulNotes/WorldWarII.

->'''Played By:''' Creator/JesseLMartin

Deadshot's Earth-2 counterpart. He's a police officer and works as a partner of Detective Iris West.

* InUniverseNickname: "Deadshot" like his Earth-1 Counterpart.
* IronicNickname: He gets called "Deadshot" as mockery for his inability to hit anything with a gun.

----
* AdaptationalHeroism: Invoked due to being the heroic counterpart of either Captain Cold, Golden Glider, or their father, all of whom are villains in the comics and in the Franchise/{{Arrowverse}}.

* TheGhost: S/He's not seen, only referred to.

Patty's Earth-2 counterpart, who's also a member of the CCPD.
----
* ConsummateProfessional: Earth-2 Barry notes that her reports are always very thorough.
* FairCop: She seems to be the rare Earth-2 character who's exactly the same as the Earth-1 version.
* ForWantOfANail: This version of Patty is a CSI instead of a detective, like her Earth-1 counterpart wanted to be before being sidelined by her quest to bring Mark Mardon to justice.
* TheGhost: Much like Mayor Snart and Robert Queen, she is only referred to, and never actually seen.
* TwoGirlsToATeam: She and Iris are the only known female members of the CCPD, though its noted that some were killed by Zoom 2 years ago in the "hostage situation".
[[/folder]]

[[folder:James Zolomon]]
!!James Zolomon
->'''Played By:''' Shaine Jones

A War of the Americas veteran and the father of Hunter Zolomon aka Zoom.
----
* AbusiveParents: He is both psychologically and emotionally abusive to his son.
* AdaptationalHeroism: Only by comparison. In the comics, Hunter's father was a SerialKiller, who [[WouldHurtAChild murdered six young girls]] along with his wife. Here, he seems to only murder one person, and it's in a fit of rage rather than premeditated.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: WordOfGod says he was a {{Domestic Abuse}}r for years, even during the times when he was projecting himself as a "respectable" war hero.
* ChekhovsGunman: He was mentioned by his son early in Season Two.
* CoolHat: Wears a silver-kettle helmet similar to Jay's, though lacking the golden Mercury wings. It is likely the same one.

* {{Jerkass}}: A very unpleasant person.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: In the comics, Hunter Zolomon's father is a NoNameGiven character.
* ShellShockedVeteran: It is heavily implied that the war he fought in damaged him emotionally and psychologically.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: His being a horrible husband and father is what ruined his son mentally and emotionally, causing him to become a SerialKiller and monstrous supervillain.
* SparedByTheAdaptation: In the comics, he is gunned down by the police after he killed his wife. Here, it was mentioned in his son's flashback that he was only incarcerated but is serving life sentence ([[KilledOffscreen assuming Zoom didn't do anything to him in between the years, that is]]).
* WalkingSpoiler: Talking about him reveals a lot about the backstory of his son Hunter aka Zoom.
* WouldHitAGirl: He is a {{Domestic Abuse}}r as said above. He ends up murdering his wife in cold blood while forcing their son to watch.

[[folder:Ashley Zolomon]]
!!Ashley Zolomon
->'''Played By:''' Tatyana Forrest

James' wife and mother of Hunter Zolomon aka Zoom.
----

* CompositeCharacter: Has the name of Zoom's wife in the comics, but her main counterpart here is his mother.
* DecompositeCharacter: Her role as Zoom's [[StalkerWithACrush (one-sided)]] LoveInterest in the comics is given to Earth-1 Caitlin Snow in the show.
* DomesticAbuse: Her husband physically, emotionally, and psychologically abused her.
* {{Housewife}}: Implied to be a stereotypical stay-at-home wife and mother during TheFifties and earlier. This is either due to the RetroUniverse setting (though this Earth's Iris works as a cop, and a respected one at that) or her husband having a StayInTheKitchen mentality (which is very likely).
* InelegantBlubbering: She was introduced crying hysterically while being assaulted by her husband.
* InSpiteOfANail: Her Earth-1 counterpart is also a PosthumousCharacter, having suffered DeathByChildbirth. This is assuming that her son is telling the truth regarding their Earth-1 counterparts.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: In the comics, Hunter Zolomon's mother is a NoNameGiven character.
* PosthumousCharacter: She's long dead in the present day.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: Her son being ForcedToWatch by her husband when he murdered her is what screwed him up mentally and emotionally, causing him to become a SerialKiller.
* StuffedInTheFridge: Her death gives her son the FreudianExcuse to become a SerialKiller.
* WalkingSpoiler: Talking about her reveals a lot about the backstory of her son Hunter.
[[/folder]]

'''Zoom and Associates'''
----

[[folder:In General]]

* BadassFamily: They have the married BattleCouple Deathstorm and Killer Frost, and SiblingsInCrime Reverb and Rupture.
* DegradedBoss: They are introduced as MonstersOfTheWeek, by the end of the second season, they are treated as Mooks.
* EvilCounterpart: To Team Flash. While both teams are led by a speedster, Barry uses his speed to help people and he and his team are TrueCompanions. Zoom, on the other hand, uses his speed ForTheEvulz and only forced his lackeys into joining him. To hammer the point, half of their members are downright {{Evil Twin}}s of Team Flash and their allies/family/friends.
* EvilWearsBlack: Most of them wear very dark, if not outright black, outfits.
* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: Zoom sends metahuman after metahuman through the breaches to kill Barry -- each one ends up dead or imprisoned. Turns out Zoom never expected or even wanted any of them to succeed. He simply wanted Barry to get faster from the challenge of fighting them, so when Zoom decides it's time to take Barry's speed there will be enough of the Speedforce to act as an antidote for the Velocity drugs Zoom has taken.
* FemalesAreMoreInnocent: The female "members" are portrayed more sympathetically than the male ones. This is painfully true when Zoom's tragic backstory is finally revealed, as he is still depicted as using it as a FreudianExcuse for his monstrosity.
* ForcedIntoEvil: ZigZagged. Most of them are press-ganged by Zoom to fight Barry for him, but they tend to already be evil anyway.
* HellBentForLeather: All of them have leather outfits. Zoom himself even has a leather mask.
* ARealManIsAKiller: The male "members" are portrayed as violent sociopaths compared to the female ones.
* RoguesGallery: While most of them are simply the MonsterOfTheWeek for Barry, they've been supposedly feuding with Zoom's time remnant for quite a long time.
* SpotlightStealingSquad: In Season Two, to the point only a handful of Earth-1 metahumans show up to antagonize Central City.
* SuperPoweredMooks: In the penultimate episode of the second season.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: If you've served your purpose for Zoom, then chances are you're good as dead.

->'''Known Aliases:''' Zoom, The Speed Demon, The Fastest Man Alive, "Jay Garrick", "The Flash", "The Crimson Comet"
-> '''Played By:''' Ryan Handley (Masked Actor), Creator/TonyTodd (Masked Voice), Teddy Sears (Unmasked)

A sociopathic speedster, debuting in Season Two. He dresses in a black version of the Flash's suit, which covers his entire body like a cancerous growth. He is obsessed with being the only speedster in the multiverse, and sends Earth-2 metahumans to Earth-1 to kill Barry. At the same time, he poses as "Jay Garrick", who is supposedly "The Flash" from Earth-2, and acts as a BigBrotherMentor to Barry and his team. In reality, the actual Jay Garrick is The Flash from Earth-3 whom he imprisoned after defeating in combat. We later find out that, much like Barry, he saw his mother die; the difference was that his father actually did it. Unlike Barry, he had no support system, and was sent to an orphanage where systematic abuse, coupled with no one taking the time to care, led to him taking a horrific path...
----

* AbusiveParents: "Versus Zoom" shows us that he was abused by his father.
* AdaptationalBadass: Has a much more aggressive mindset that his comics counterpart. It helps that (or probably because of) he is a CompositeCharacter of many evil speedsters.
* AdaptationalVillainy: In the comics Hunter Zolomon was simply a man with bad luck turned supervillain. His father killed his mother before being killed by the police, and as a result, Hunter resolved to become a police officer to understand why this happened, and why villains do what they do. He later loses his wife and has his knee blown out due to a bad call, but only resolves to keep doing his job. He later is further crippled by Grodd and loses his ability to walk, and begs Wally West to use time travel to save his life. When Wally refuses, Hunter uses the Cosmic Treadmill to try to fix it himself; it literally blows up in his face and he gains superspeed, but the experience negatively affects his mind. Hunter resolves to become the second Reverse-Flash and make Wally a better superhero by making him experience tragedy. Even after he's defeated by Wally, he apologizes to him. In the show, Zoom is a monstrous psychopath who simply terrorizes people ForTheEvulz before and after becoming a speedster, long after his mother is killed and his father evidently dies in prison. He targets the Flash not to make him a better hero, but to steal his speed. He decides in the finale to become an OmnicidalManiac, attemping to destroy all Earths, save for Earth-1, to satisfy his ego and bloodlust. Though this ''is'' the Earth-2 version of Hunter Zolomon, the Earth-1 counterpart (who far as we know is just a normal civilian) averts this.
* AgeLift: In the comics, he is closer in age to Wally West. Here, he is obviously older than Wally's predecessor, Barry.
* AlmostKiss: He and Caitlin nearly kiss in Episode 2x05, but [[MomentKiller Dr. Light attacks them before they can go through with it]].
* AmbiguouslyEvil: As Jay Garrick, he's seemingly a good guy and Zoom's enemy, but Zoom considers his death a "complication", which is a strange viewpoint to hold about one's enemy. Also, Jay deceived the main cast on multiple occasions, including the fact that he was SecretlyDying. It stops being ambiguous once it's revealed that he ''is'' Zoom, real name Hunter Zolomon. The Jay that died was a future version of Zoom -- a time remnant, if you will -- who was convinced by his past self to die as part of their plan.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: The members of Team Flash insist Zoom ''cannot'' be human. Wells adds he ''was''. As it turns out, he was being metaphoric. That said, the demonic voice he makes as Zoom and his ability to turn his eyes completely black make it easy to believe he is this.
* AppropriatedAppellation:
** Two years ago on Earth-2, he faked a hostage situation to lure 15 officers to a place where he could kill all but one. The survivor described him as "'''zoom'''ing". [[KickTheDog Zoom murdered the man in his home later.]]
** As he reveals to Joe in the Season 2 finale, he stole the Jay Garrick persona from the Flash of Earth-3 after deciding to play the roles of both hero and villain.
* ArchEnemy: For Harry Wells and, by the end of Season Two, to Barry as well after Zoom murders Henry right in front of him in the same place Eobard killed his mother.
* ArrogantKungFuGuy: He's a literal LightningBruiser and knows it. As a result, he looks down on everyone. Him being AxCrazy just makes things worse.
* ArtifactAlias: After TheReveal, the team continues referring to Zoom as "Jay", although Barry does call him "Zolomon" in the finale, and Joe backtracks when talking about Zoom to the real Jay Garrick.
* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: It turns out that Zoom is not only a genuinely competent fighter, but also has an entire ''army'' of evil metahumans following his command as he prepares to invade Earth-1.
* AwesomeAnachronisticApparel: His "Jay Garrick" costume is roughly similar to a late 19th/early 20th century soldier's uniform. And it's awesome! In the opening flashback of "Versus Zoom", we see that he deliberately based it on his father's uniform from the War of the Americas.
* AxCrazy: Zoom is a violent, sadistic maniac who has spent over two years wreaking havoc on Earth-2's Central City. "Versus Zoom" reveals that, before getting his powers, Zoom was a serial killer with 23 bodies to his name. Getting his powers and abusing the Velocity drug just made him even worse.
** He's ''so'' AxCrazy that he thinks nothing of creating and killing copies of himself just to {{Troll}} Barry. And his copies ''agree'' to being murdered just for that.
* {{Badass}}: Zoom is absolutely a badass, make no mistake. When he and Barry finally fight, he effortlessly pulls a CatchAndReturn on Barry's lightning bolt, then proceeds to brutally thrash Barry, breaking his back, and pulls a BulletCatch on Earth-2 Wells' dart and a full barrage from the CCPD -- one-handed, no less, while he's dragging a thrashed Barry around to show him off to Central City.
* BadassBaritone: As is custom with Tony Todd, Zoom's disguised voice is very deep and intimidating. Played straight come TheReveal, too, as he retains Teddy Sears' resonant baritone, which also came in handy for his persona as a somewhat OlderAndWiser hero than Barry.
* BadassBoast:
** Delivers a pretty intimidating one (his quote above) to Wells.
** Delivers one to a captive Barry:
---> '''Zoom:''' It's not wise to make promises you can't keep, Flash. Look around. This is the last place you will ever see.
** His voice over at the start of "Escape from Earth-2" qualifies:
---> '''Zoom:''' I know you're here, Harrison Wells. And you did not come alone. You can try to hide, but I'm the fastest man alive. I will scour this city until I hunt you down, and when I do, all of you will feel my wrath.
** '''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis "YOU CAN'T. LOCK UP. THE DARKNESS."]]'''
* BadassBookworm: As "Jay" he claimed he was a scientist in his civilian life on Earth-2. While this ultimately proved to be [[ConsummateLiar bullshit]], Zoom is [[GeniusBruiser incredibly smart]] as he not only created the original Velocity 9 drug to enhance his powers, he also created a mask that will dampen a speedster from all his powers, and a DoomsdayDevice capable of destroying TheMultiverse.
* BadassInDistress: The Time Wraiths took him in the Speed Force.
* BadassNormal: "Jay" claims to have lost his powers due to taking the Velocity drug. It's all part of his act, though his SecretlyDying is genuine.
* BadBoss:
** Zoom is brutal to the metahumans he sends to kill Barry, and to the evil metahumans that work for him, killing Reverb and Deathstorm for trying to kill Barry, although he does leave Killer Frost alive for trying to get them to stop, even if he chokes her for a short time before leaving. Even that doesn't last -- he eventually kills Killer Frost (for trying to kill Earth-1 Caitlin) and Reverb's brother ([[YouHaveFailedMe for getting captured]]) as well.
** With the reveal that his goal was to steal the Flash's speed, it becomes clear that Zoom never expected any of them to succeed at killing him, and had no problem with leaving them on Earth-1 for the rest of their lives. As "Jay", he even helped Barry kill Sand Demon.
* TheBadGuyWins: Gets a lot of this throughout Season Two. The vast majority of his encounters with Team Flash (or anyone else, for that matter) end with him getting what he wants. Plus he's pretty much already taken over Earth-2.
* BaitTheDog: It turns out that he was only pretending to be Team Flash's friend Jay Garrick the whole time so he could manipulate them to his own ends. He even laughs his ass off about this in front of them.
* BeardOfEvil: His flashbacks show that he had a beard during his SerialKiller days. However, he's shaved it off now.
* BecomingTheMask: While posing as Jay Garrick, Hunter developed genuine affection (or as close to genuine as [[TheSociopath someone like him]] is capable of) for Caitlin, even claiming to love her.
* BeingGoodSucks: He confessed pretending to be a good guy is "exhausting".
* BerserkButton:
** "Jay" does not react well to being asked to take the Velocity drug; he later blames it for the loss of his speed.
** ''Never'' disobey Zoom -- especially his prime order of never harming a speedster. He kills Reverb and Deathstorm for planning to team up and betray him, and while he spares Killer Frost for not going along with it, he still strangles her a bit because he's just that pissed at her mere proximity to them. And when the CCPD refused to stand down as he instructed, he murders all of the members at Jitters save Barry, Joe and Singh.
** Don't say you can defeat him or even ''think'' it. That charade with Linda impersonating Dr. Light caused him to temporarily abandon his plans to fatten Barry up in favor of trying to kill him in a fit of rage. When he briefly holds Barry prisoner, he gives him a brutal beating for saying that he'll eventually be defeated.
** Don't call him a monster. It triggers him to have flashbacks to his mother's murder. He gives Caitlin a nasty DeathGlare when she calls him one.
* BewareTheSuperman: To an even greater extreme than the Reverse-Flash. He's a speedster like Barry, but is a murderous [[TheSociopath sociopath]] who shows every bit how dangerous their powers could be in the wrong hands.
* BigBad: For Season Two.
* TheBigDamnKiss: He and Caitlin make out in "Escape from Earth-2" after a lot of ShipTease previously in the season.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: He pretended to be a hero to give Team Flash hope, just so he could take it away from them.
* BlackEyesOfEvil: When they aren't [[GlowingEyesOfDoom glowing]], Zoom's eyes look pitch-black, just like the rest of him. "Versus Zoom" reveals that he can cause this to happen at will, much like Eobard Thawne's glowing red eyes.
* BroughtDownToBadass: Seemingly losing his powers didn't stop him from getting around the beefed-up security in STAR Labs, or from facing Sand Demon to give Barry some time to free Patty.
* BroughtDownToNormal: "Jay" claims to have lost his speed right before the singularity sucked him into Earth-1. He never actually did, but was able to fool everyone, including Caitlin, into believing he had.
* BulletCatch: And ArrowCatch, as he catches Wells' speed-dampening dart and several bullets with contemptuous ease. For reference, Barry has to scramble to catch three or four bullets fired from one gun. Zoom catches a hail of bullets, one-handed, fired by at least ten cops, with no trouble whatsoever.
--> '''Zoom:''' Nice try.
* ButHeSoundsHandsome: There's a lot of this whenever "Jay" talks about Zoom.
* CanonCharacterAllAlong: Zoom's true identity is Hunter Zolomon, just like in the comics. He's simply the Earth-2 version; we don't know much about the Earth-1 version yet.
* CantKillYouStillNeedYou: The only reason Zoom didn't kill Barry because is because he didn't ''want'' to. All of those meta-humans he's been sending are for the sole purpose of making Barry faster. That way, there will be more of the Speed Force to consume when the time comes, so he can stop himself from dying from the Velocity drug.
* CardCarryingVillain: Even discounting his ObviouslyEvil appearance, Zoom makes no attempt whatsoever at hiding what a monster he is unless he needs to keep up a deception. Even undercover as Jay, he [[ButHeSoundsHandsome describes Zoom]] as "an unstoppable demon with the face of death", showing a fondness for his own evil nature. Once he's done with the facade, Zoom positively ''revels'' in what an evil bastard he is.
* CatchAndReturn: Does this with a lightning bolt Barry throws at him.
* CelebrityParadox: Cisco [[TakeThat mentions]] the ''Franchise/TransformersFilmSeries'' during the Season 2 finale. His voice actor also provided the voice of [[Film/TransformersRevengeOfTheFallen the second film installment's]] BigBad.
* CivvieSpandex: As "Jay", he wore a red jacket with a yellow outline of a lightning bolt on it and a winged helmet.
* ColourCodedForYourConvenience: When he runs, he leaves a trail of blue lightning. It's a side effect of the Velocity drug. If he was going slower, it would be yellow.
* CommanderContrarian: As "Jay", his main role in the plot after Earth-2 Wells shows up is pretty much to disagree with him about everything. Justified because he knew Wells could screw up his plans.
* CompositeCharacter:
** Zoom is basically an amalgamation of virtually every evil speedster up to and including the Reverse-Flash. He carries Hunter Zolomon's supervillain moniker and is ultimately revealed to indeed ''be'' Hunter, but his costume is implied to be inspired by both the Daniel West Reverse-Flash of the ''[[ComicBook/{{New52}} New Fifty-Two]]'' and Pollux from [[Series/TheFlash1990 the previous Flash series]]. On the other hand, his status as Jay Garrick's ArchEnemy belongs to The Rival, and his glowing look when in motion resembles The Rival post-possession of Max Mercury. Visually, he also takes after [[TheGrimReaper the Black Flash]], a resemblance that becomes even more pronounced when he's being dragged into the Speed Force by the Time Wraiths. His having blue streaks of lightning makes him similar to an Alternate Future Barry Allen who went off the deep end. Like Johnny Quick, he's an evil speedster from an alternate Earth. In terms of motivations, his obsession with speed resembles that of Savitar.
** His SerialKiller background originally belong to his father in the comics. Said father existed here, also making them a DecompositeCharacter.
* CopKiller: He solidified his supervillain career by killing 15 cops on his earth. When he finally conquers Earth-1 Central City, he kills an entire SWAT team only leaving Cap. Singh, Joe and Barry alive.
* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: Zoom is black with blue lightning, unlike the Reverse Flash's yellow suit and red lightning. While Eobard Thawne was deeply nuanced and personally hated Barry, though his main goal was to get home and he wanted to make Barry faster so he could do so, Zoom is a GenericDoomsdayVillain, a demon who has no personal enmity with the Flash other than he's another speedster and he wants Barry to be faster and stronger so he has more Speed Force for Zoom to eat. They both took on secret identities for different reasons: Thawne had to take on the identity of Harrison Wells for his plan to work, while Hunter took on the identity of Jay just to mess with people. Thawne discovered he actually ''liked'' helping Barry being a hero and grew to care for Team Flash as the kids he never had (although he'd have no problem killing any of them if they got in his way), while Zoom found pretending to be Jay "exhausting" and really doesn't give a damn about Team Flash at all.
* ConsummateLiar: He was never 100% honest with Team Flash about his true identity and his connection to Zoom. They didn't even know that he'd stolen the Jay Garrick name rather than simply made it up until he spilled the beans to a captive Joe West.
* CoolHat: His winged helmet inspired by the Roman God Mercury. He got it from his father. Rather than be merely decorative, he can use it as a weapon, punching it so fast that it creates a sonic wave.
* TheCorrupter: Earth-2 Wells mentions that anyone who got influenced by Zoom completely loses themselves to [[TheDarkSideWillMakeYouForget the dark side]]. Later he makes it his mission to this to the Flash since despite their similar backgrounds Barry turned out to be a hero.
* CurbStompBattle: Inflicts this on Barry, breaking his spine.
* DarkIsEvil: He wears a completely black version of the Flash suit. His demonic voice and psychotic tendencies just emphasise this.
--> '''Zoom''': '''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis YOU CAN'T]]. [[VoiceOfTheLegion LOCK UP]]. [[BlackEyesOfEvil THE DARKNESS]].'''
* DarkSecret: It's eventually revealed that Jay was not being honest about why he lost his powers. He initially claims that Zoom stole them in their last battle, but later claims that he actually lost them as a side effect of a drug he'd been taking to enhance them. But even ''that'' is a lie. In reality, he still has his powers, but he is close to death because of the Velocity drug abuse, and he needs the Flash's speed to cure himself. Also, "Jay Garrick" is just a heroic identity stolen from the real deal on another Earth and perpetrated by Zoom for the sole purpose of instilling hope within people only to later rip it away.
* DarthVaderClone: The creators of the show had [[Franchise/StarWars Darth Vader]] on their minds when conceiving Zoom. He's covered in black, a more experienced speedster than Barry and has a deep booming voice that's said to not be his real voice. In fact, Tony Todd was chosen as Zoom's voice specifically for the deep voice that Creator/JamesEarlJones gave Vader.
* DeadpanSnarker:
** He has a very glib, [[FauxAffablyEvil falsely affable]] response to Wells' attempt at biding for time while Zoom is coercing him.
---> '''Harry''': I need more time.\\
'''Zoom''': Don't we all?
** Zoom demonstrates a fairly blunt sense of humor when he kills Deathstorm.
---> '''Killer Frost:''' You know what Zoom will do if you don't obey him!\\
'''Zoom:''' [''[[SpeakOfTheDevil suddenly arrives on the scene]] and kills Deathstorm''] That.
** He snarks at Reverb as well:
---> '''Zoom:''' What did I say you should do if you encountered a speedster?\\
'''Reverb:''' Leave him unharmed.\\
'''Zoom:''' [''gestures at the battered Flash''] Does ''this'' look unharmed to you?
* DeadlyUpgrade: He reveals that he took the Velocity-6 drug before he ever came to Earth-1 because he wanted to be faster. It worked quite well, but it eventually took a toll on his health.
* DealWithTheDevil: He promised Wells that his daughter would be returned safely to him if the good doctor helped him steal the Flash's speed.
* DecompositeCharacter: Zig-zagged. As it turns out, he ''is'' Hunter Zolomon, just the one from Earth-2. However, this is still played straight regarding his background; Hunter's role in the comics as a FriendOnTheForce was given to Eddie in the first season.
* DimensionalTraveler: He can quite easily take advantage of the breaches between Earth-1 and Earth-2 to hop back and forth with little difficulty, something virtually no other character appears to be able to do willingly. However, even he seemingly can no longer do this once the breaches are finally closed.
* DirtyCoward: Earth-2 Wells accuses "Jay" of being one, saying that rather than fighting Zoom and stopping him, Jay ran from him instead. Jay admits that he is afraid of Zoom, but insists that he tried to fight him and simply never stood a chance alone. "Enter Zoom" shows that, lies aside, he wasn't exaggerating how dangerous Zoom was. Even with the new tricks Jay taught him, and his superior speed to Jay as emphasized by Wells, Barry gets crippled by Zoom without any effort on the latter's part.
* DoNotCallMePaul: Downplayed, but he seems distinctly uncomfortable when Caitlin calls him "Hunter".
* DraggedOffToHell: His ultimate fate: after Barry defeats him, he throws him to the arriving [[ClockRoaches Time Wraiths]], who subject him to RapidAging and drag him away to his fate.
* TheDreaded: When impersonating Jay, Zoom describes himself as "an unstoppable demon with a face of death", and later "admits" that he was always afraid of him. If Doctor Light is any indication, even the Metahumans he strongarms into attacking the Flash are absolutely terrified of Zoom. As of "Enter Zoom", we can add the entire main cast, several cops, and probably most of Central City to the list of people who are terrified of Zoom. In "Welcome to Earth-2", we see that not only is all of Earth-2's Central City living in fear of Zoom, his own metahuman henchmen are terrified of him. It only takes Zoom showing up to turn Reverb from a SmugSnake into a cowed submissive.
** His helmet first appears in the season 1 finale, which the season 1 BigBad takes as his cue to leave.
* DrivenByEnvy: The reason he wants to kill Barry is because he wants to be the '''only''' speedster in ''any universe''. He also envies Barry having loving parents. Right before he kills him, Henry makes a SoProudOfYou speech to his son and Zoom is visibly annoyed by this. WordOfGod also teases that he's also jealous of his Earth-1 counterpart's life.
* DrugsAreBad: Hunter took Velocity-6 to increase his speed, but it eventually took a heavy toll on his health, driving him to try to steal Barry's speed for a cure.
* DrunkOnTheDarkSide: He was already a homicidal maniac, but Zoom positively ''revels'' in the power he gets from his speed.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: In the brief glimpses of Zoom in Season Two's early trailers, he looked rather different. His eyes were glowing blue and his blurred mask looked like a robot's head. When he appears in the show itself, and especially when he fully appears at the end of "The Darkness and the Light", his eyes are pure black and his costume proves more organic.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: When he parades Barry's broken body around both the CCPD and Central City Picture News buildings within seconds, gloating about his victory, it shows the depths of his hubris and cruelty, along with the extent of his abilities. Also applies to his Jay Garrick persona, as right after Cisco brags about how much he's beefed up security, "Jay" walks into the STAR Labs Cortex to tell Barry his world is in danger.
* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Cisco has a StupidSexyFlanders moment when he compliments Hunter's physique. He gets embarrassed by this, obviously.
* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: It turns out that the only person Zoom ever cared about was his mother. [[SubvertedTrope He describes this emotion as a weakness after it gets him lured into a trap.]]
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Young Zoom was absolutely crushed upon witnessing his abusive father murder his mother. He also abducts Caitlin, who he flirted with while posing as her friend; however, this proves to be a subversion, as the experience leaves her with PTSD and he later tries to kill her for running away.
* EvilAllAlong: "Jay Garrick" proves to have been nothing but an act, much like Harrison Wells in Season One turning out to be Eobard Thawne.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood:
** When Barry says that his deception was unnecessary and they would have helped save his life if he'd just ''asked'', Hunter just shrugs it off, believing that they would never have helped him willingly (although, given his nature as a homicidal maniac, he might not be totally wrong on this one).
** He seemed to genuinely believe that Caitlin, whom he'd been getting to know for ''months'', was fundamentally no different from himself or Killer Frost.
** Despite the fact that he pretended to be Jay Garrick for so long, Zoom fundamentally does not understand what it means to be a hero, and complains about his act as being "exhausting", believing that kind of attitude is obviously what Barry Allen is feeling.
--->'''Zoom:''' You think your anger is dirty somehow. You want to be seen as pure, the hero. Doesn't that get exhausting? ''Doesn't it get exhausting, Barry?'' It was ''exhausting'' playing Jay, believe me!
** He thought that killing Henry would be enough for Barry to end up exactly like him. Hunter's mental issues aside, he's known Barry long enough that he should have realized what kind of person he truly is.
* EvilCounterpart: Implied to be another one with the ominous trailer tagline "Zoom is coming." Sure enough, he is even more of one than the Reverse-Flash, being completely inhuman and monstrous.
** Emphasised by his BadassBoast after defeating Barry for the first time.
---> '''Zoom:''' Never forget: ''I'' am the fastest man alive!
** It's taken even further when we realize both Zoom and Barry had their mothers murdered in front of them with their fathers going to jail for it. Even Zoom himself says Barry could've easily have been him if things were different, though Barry disagrees.
* EvilGenius: For a homicidal psychopath, Zoom is surprisingly intelligent and scientifically inclined; he managed to create the Velocity drug, built a device to suppress Jay Garrick's speed, and built a doomsday machine capable of wiping out the entire multiverse.
* EvilGloating: When Zoom has Barry defeated and wounded, what does he do? Show off his victory to the newspaper, the CCPD and Harrison Wells. After being outed as Jay Garrick, Zoom shamelessly gloats about how he fooled everyone and how he uses the facade to destroy people's hope.
** In retrospect, a lot of the comments Jay made about Zoom, such as him being an "unstoppable demon with the face of death" and his constant (if accurate) warnings that Barry didn't stand a chance against Zoom, come off as subtle EvilGloating.
** An example that backfires on him is bragging to Barry about his use of time remnants on multiple occasions. [[HoistByHisOwnPetard This directly leads to his own demise.]]
* EvilIsHammy: It's obvious his actor is having a blast playing an evil speedster. Basically everything Zoom says sounds like an awkward sociopath always on the verge of flipping out.
--> After Barry gives him his speed: ''THANK YOU, FLASH!''
* EvilIsPetty: He outdoes even Eobard Thawne in this regard; Thawne's excuse for villainy was a case of GoMadFromTheRevelation, while Zoom was a SerialKiller even before he got his powers. Every evil act he does amounts to "because I can" and to give himself an immense ego boost with the knowledge he can't be stopped. His ultimate act of pettiness is in the penultimate episode of Season Two, when he kills Henry in the old Allen house right before Barry's eyes just to prove the two are NotSoDifferent. Justified, as he's confirmed by WordOfGod to be a [[TheSociopath sociopath]], who by nature tend to have poor impulse control.
* EvilOverlord: He's grown bored with control over his home world, so he now desires to rule Earth-1 with Caitlin by his side.
* EvilSoundsDeep: Like Eobard Thawne, he's able to disguise his voice, making it sound demonic in the bargain. [[note]]Tom Cavanagh had his voice modulated for the Reverse-Flash, but for Zoom, the producers decided to hire a different actor -- Tony Todd -- for the disguised voice in order to enhance the mystery.[[/note]] When his face is finally revealed at the end of "King Shark", he has the same BadassBaritone as Jay Garrick; in "Versus Zoom", he demonstrates that he can deepen it and blacken his eyes even without the mask on, similar to Eobard Thawne's RedEyesTakeWarning and VoiceOfTheLegion. Using his demonic voice while wearing his mask is apparently a habit for Zoom; he doesn't drop it even around people who already know his true identity.
* EvilWearsBlack: Unlike his comic book counterpart, this Zoom dresses head-to-toe in black.
* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: Had his hair trimmed starting in "Family of Rogues".
* FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon: Beneath his mask, Zoom has a handsome face. He's still probably the most brutal, terrifying villain to be seen in the series so far.
* FacialHorror: His face disintegrates once the Time Wraiths get their hands on him.
* FalseFriend: He was posing as Jay Garrick the whole time.
* FauxAffablyEvil: He has a habit of playfully mocking his enemies, as shown after beating down Wells and hoisting him with one hand:
-->'''Wells:''' Say something!\\
'''Zoom:''' Merry Christmas.
* {{Foil}}: To Barry Allen (Earth-1, at least) in quite a few significant ways.
** Both Hunter Zolomon's and Barry Allen's mothers were murdered by demented sociopaths. In Hunter's case, however, it was his father, who also forced him to watch, which served as his StartOfDarkness. Conversely, Barry's father was merely accused of killing his mother but didn't actually do it.
** While Barry was sent to live with Joe and Iris West, people who genuinely cared for him in the wake of his mother's murder, Hunter had no such relatives and/or family members, and so was sent off to an orphanage.
* ForcedToWatch: His father deliberately murdered his mother in front of him, and he forced Barry to watch him kill his dad just to prove they're the same.
* ForTheEvulz: Beyond his own survival, this is demonstrated to be his sole motivation for all the atrocities he commits. This was true even before he became Zoom, as a newspaper about his arrest states he lacked any motive for his murder spree beyond pure bloodlust. It's also the reason why he decides to [[MultiversalConqueror conquer Earth-1 and beyond]] in order to widen his scope of victims since, to paraphrase his words, [[VictoryIsBoring he's already brought Earth-2 to its knees]].
* FreakLabAccident: He supposedly got his powers after an explosion caused by running experiments on [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_water heavy water.]] He was sent into a coma, but woke up with super-speed. As far as he knows, no lightning seems to have been involved. However, this is revealed to have been a lie invented for the Jay Garrick persona. He actually got his powers by being exposed to the same energies as Barry in the middle of being subjected to electroconvulsive therapy, so electricity ''was'' involved.
* FreudianExcuse: When he was a child, his father murdered his mother in front of him. However, he still murdered twenty-three people ''before'' he got his powers, so it doesn't really stick.
* FromBadToWorse: A notorious SerialKiller empowered with SuperSpeed? WhatCouldPossiblyGoWrong
* GenericDoomsdayVillain: Zoom is characterized as little more than an "unstoppable demon" who wants to eliminate Barry and become faster, in contrast to the more manipulative and complex Eobard Thawne. Ultimately subverted, as he has been pretending to be Jay Garrick the whole time in order to manipulate everyone and is shown to have suffered a similar childhood tragedy as Barry did. However, once he cures himself, he decides to try that most cliche of villain plots -- TakeOverTheWorld, starting with Earth-1's Central City, for no other reason than to boost his ego.
* GeniusBruiser:
** Prefers operating through catspaws, sees right through an ambush, and calmly observes Barry's tactics to unleash a devastating counter. It helps that he actually taught Barry how to use the lightning-throw tactic in his alternate persona as Jay Garrick.
** He also apparently has enough knowledge of chemistry and biology to create a speed-enhancing drug and enough knowledge of theoretical physics to figure out a way to destroy the multiverse.
* GenreThrowback: Earth-2 appears to be based on UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfComicBooks, with Jay as a stereotypical stalwart, square-jawed hero who doesn't even hide his face (and thus his identity) at all. He also seems to have no problem killing his more dangerous villains, as he taught Barry how to use speed lightning on Sand Demon.
* TheGhost: His father's helmet, which came through the wormhole, is the only sign of his existence in Season One. He appears in-person in Season Two.
* GigglingVillain: When he confronts Team Flash after being unmasked, he can't seem to resist laughing in their faces about how good he fooled them.
* GlowingEyesOfDoom: His eyes can glow from generated blue lightning, though they're almost never lit.
* AGodAmI: Zoom wishes to be the only metahuman with super speed so that everyone will fear him.
* GoneHorriblyRight: As "Jay", he makes up a story of him being "The Flash" from another Earth stranded on Barry's. In the Season Two finale, he gets TrappedInAnotherWorld for real when the Time Wraiths drag him into the Speed Force.
* GutturalGrowler: His disguised voice is even deeper and more demonic than the Reverse-Flash's voice.
* HandicappedBadass: He spends most of the season dying from cellular degeneration (a side-effect of abusing the Velocity drug). It doesn't stop him from easily killing people or beating the Flash to a bloody pulp.
* HateSink: As Season Two goes on, he proves himself even more depraved than Eobard Thawne with absolutely no PetTheDog moments. To wit, he stole the identity of Jay Garrick just so he could give people hope then take it away, steals Barry's speed, kidnaps Caitlin in order to invoke Stockholm Syndrome so she'll love him, begins a ReignOfTerror over Earth-1's Central City just because he can and murders an entire S.W.A.T. Team, kills Barry's dad in front of him and ultimately tries to [[OmnicidalManiac destroy the entire multiverse]] just so Earth-1 will be his sole domain. And he has no real reason for doing ''any'' of this save ForTheEvulz. Also, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking takes performance-enhancing drugs]] to gain an unfair advantage over his enemies. AndThatsTerrible.
* HellBentForLeather: Zoom's costume is made of black leather.
* HeroKiller: In "Welcome To Earth-2", it's implied that he's killed numerous speedsters and others who've wandered through the breaches. He also kills Henry in the penultimate episode of Season Two.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: Supposedly, of a parallel Earth.
* HopeBringer: The presence of "Jay Garrick" on Earth-2 brings hope to people, even as they're being terrorized by Zoom. That is exactly why Zoom created the identity; "Jay" brings hope so Zoom can take it away.
* HopeCrusher:
** When Zoom realized that Barry was going to Earth-2, he left a time remnant version of himself on Earth-1, who agreed to die so he could both provide Zoom with an alibi for being on two Earths at once, and help him crush the hope of Team Flash by having their beloved mentor die before their very eyes.
** After humiliating the Flash in battle, he shows off the hero's broken body to the entire city so they'll lose faith in their protector. He even takes the time to go the newspaper ''and'' the police station, [[KickTheDog just to nail his point home]].
--->"''Look at your hero. This man is no god. He is nothing!''"
--->"''The days of the Flash protecting this city are over. Now what will you do without your precious hero?''"
** Just when Barry has finally gotten his confidence back in Episode 2x22, Zoom murders his dad right in front of him.
* HotGuysAreBastards: A {{Hunk}} who also happens to be both a SerialKiller and a PsychopathicManchild.
* HumanoidAbomination: "Jay" calls him "an unstoppable demon with the face of death", a description that is quite fitting. Even Earth-2 Wells remarks that there's a man under that suit...or, at least, there ''used'' to be.
* {{Hunk}}: He gets a ShirtlessScene to show it off, and the other characters note that Barry's spare clothes are tighter on him.
* {{Hypocrite}}: One of Zoom's {{Berserk Button}}s is being called a monster, and he insists that he isn't one. He was a serial killer before getting his powers, and after getting his speed, he runs around in a demonic costume killing people at will while looking and sounding like something that crawled out of the depths of hell, all while being a HopeCrusher for the sake of making everyone afraid of him. His claims of not being a monster really don't have a leg to stand on.
* IconicSequelCharacter: Does not appear in the series until Season 2, though his CoolHat is seen during the Season 1 finale.
* IControlMyMinionsThrough: Fear. Out of the various metahumans that Zoom has sicced on the Flash or that he allows to run wild on Earth-2, only Atom-Smasher and King Shark seem to be even remotely loyal to him (and even then, Atom-Smasher was only trying to kill the Flash because Zoom promised to return him home if he did). All the others are kept in line by fear of Zoom, or forced into working for him.
* IcyBlueEyes: When he's not sporting BlackEyesOfEvil, he has these, though the icy part doesn't become obvious until TheReveal.
* IdiotBall: Played with. Jay stands next to the portal to Earth-2 for a while and turns his back to it, despite the fact that his team told him they were running from Zoom. This allows Zoom to impale him and drag him back through. [[SubvertedTrope However, as it turns out,]] this was a deliberate ThanatosGambit on "Jay's" part to ensure his death would further propel Barry to become faster, so that he would have more speed to feed on as Zoom.
* IHaveYouNowMyPretty: Kidnaps Caitlin and tries to force her to have StockholmSyndrome. It doesn't work, but she ''is'' left with PTSD after escaping him.
* IHaveYourWife:
** He was keeping Wells' daughter Jesse hostage in order to force her father to do his bidding. Barry and co. rescued her.
** At later points in the season he also kidnaps, in order: Barry, Wally, Killer Frost, and Caitlin. In general, this seems to be his second favorite method of getting what he wants (the first being KillEmAll).
* ILied: Zoom once spared a single police officer after massacring his whole unit, allowing him to live if he'd tell the world of Zoom's greatness. After the officer kept his end of the bargain, Zoom went to his home and killed him anyway.
* IllBoy: It is later revealed that he's SecretlyDying, and the only cure is for him to regain his SuperSpeed.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: In "Escape from Earth-2", Zoom shoves his arm through his time remnant's torso and drags him back through the portal to his world, killing him in the process. He does the same thing to another time remnant in "The Race of His Life".
* INeedYouStronger: He forces other villains to fight Barry in order to force him to become faster, as he plans to take his speed and become faster himself.
* InNameOnly: In the comics, the speedster calling himself Zoom is a (reverse) LegacyCharacter for Eobard Thawne, even wearing a similar yellow costume. Here, he appears to be a completely original character. This ultimately proves to be a ZigzaggingTrope as he turns out to be the Earth-2 version of Hunter Zolomon and shares some elements of classic Zoom's backstory, though he is a [[AdaptationalVillainy much more evil bastard in this version]].
* InsaneEqualsViolent: He's never explicitly confirmed as mentally ill, but Zolomon spent time in an asylum, and, in addition to having already been a prolific SerialKiller, as Zoom, he has probably the highest body count of any villain in the series so far.
* InSpiteOfANail: His costume is an all-black version of Barry's Flash suit, even though "Jay" is the Flash on Earth-2 instead.
* InterspeciesFriendship: Jay mentions one of his [[{{ComicBook/Aquaman}} best and closest friends]] originates from Earth-2's Atlantis. Considering [[EvilAllAlong later]] [[SerialKiller revelations]] about the character, however, it's pretty likely that this was either a lie or yet another {{false friend}}ship.
* InvincibleVillain: ''Nothing'' can stop him. Even a speedster's natural weakness like a cold blast will only delay him.
* ItAmusedMe: He was bored just playing the villain, so he decided to take the hero's name and shtick too. That's why we knew ''him'' as Jay Garrick instead of the bright-suited old man who looks like Henry.
* ItsAllAboutMe: He wants to kill every speedster in existence because he thinks he deserves to be the sole person with the power. He also wants Barry's speed so that he can become even faster and save his own life, throwing away the lives of his minions and killing a number of innocent people to achieve his goals. In "Versus Zoom", he flat out admits that he doesn't care how many people he's killed as long as he can get what he wants.
* ItsPersonal: He ''really'' seems to hate Harrison Wells, to the point of wanting to kill his daughter in front of him just out of spite. It's not really clear why.
* IWasQuiteALooker: Once the Time Wraiths get their hands on him, his face disintegrates.
* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: Harry reveals in a story that Zoom massacred a whole unit of police officers, but purposely allowed one to live to warn the world about his presence. The cop did as he was told and was thankful for his chance to live. Unfortunately, Zoom changed his mind and [[ILied killed the officer anyway at his house]].
* TheJuggernaut: He's the fastest being in ''any'' universe, and he has unbelievable combat prowess to back it up, with the ultimate result being that if he wants ''anyone'' dead--including powerful metahumans--he can pretty much instantaneously will it to be so. He forces other metahumans to "work" for him under this threat. Ultimately there appear to be a ''few'' things that can slow him down briefly, arguably making him more of an ImplacableMan, although even these are extremely hard to attack him with given his incredible speed and reflexes.
* KarmicDeath: After Zoom used his time remnant as a plan to hurt Team Flash, Barry defeats him with the same tactic. The Time Wraiths then show up and [[DraggedOffToHell drag him away]] because of said temporal meddling on Zoom's part, although future events may prove this to be temporary.
* KickTheDog:
** As if beating Barry within an inch of his life wasn't enough, he drags his broken body all across town to publicly humiliate the hero in front of the entire city in order to crush their faith in him, then stabs Barry in the gut just to hurt him a little more before trying to kill him.
** He brings Wells' daughter through the portal to him, only to take her away the moment Wells comforts her.
** Years ago, he killed 14 out of 15 officers, sparing only one to let people know he existed. [[HopeSpot He then murdered the man in his home when he thought he was safe.]]
** While killing Deathstorm and Reverb is at least somewhat justifiable (they were both defying his orders and Reverb expressed some [[TheStarscream treacherous notions]]), he throttles the already cowed and loyal Killer Frost for no apparent reason.
** In "Escape from Earth-2", he brutally beats a captive Barry for vowing to defeat Zoom.
** He also reveals that he '''loves''' to YankTheDogsChain
-->'''Joe:''' Why the charade?\\
'''Zoom:''' To give people hope, Detective.\\
'''Joe:''' Hope?\\
'''Zoom:''' [[HopeCrusher So I could rip it away from them!]]
** After lying to Rupture about who killed his brother, Zoom kills him as well, revealing the truth just to twist the knife.
** After the team's attempt at restoring Barry's speed fails and seemingly kills him, Zoom shows up just to rub it in.
** He kept the real Jay Garrick in a cage and a mask that suppressed his powers [[AndIMustScream and kept him from speaking]] after stealing his identity and using it to play hero so that the carnage he caused as Zoom would be less boring.
** Kills Henry in front of Barry in the same house (and spot) his mother was murdered by Eobard Thawne.
* KickTheSonOfABitch:
** He's dragging metahuman criminals out of his own dimension and dumping them in the Flash's universe, where they have a slim chance of beating the scarlet speedster in a fight. If they can't, then Zoom won't ever return them back. Given that Zoom's actual plan relies on them failing to kill the Flash, he's totally fine with leaving them trapped on Earth-1 forever.
** In "Welcome to Earth-2", he kills Deathstorm, who trapped Martin Stein in an AndIMustScream scenario, and Reverb, while they were brutalising an already beaten Flash. He didn't do it for any altruistic reason, but the victims in question [[AssholeVictim definitely had it coming]].
** He brutally kills Killer Frost after she attacks Caitlin.
* KnightOfCerebus: Until he directly confronts Barry, Season Two has been a serious but still light season that explores the {{Multiverse}} and his threat is only referenced by Jay or Harry. When he finally shows up, he immediately shows why he's a threat by brutally curb-stomping Barry, showing off his broken body around Central City, and nearly killing him, leaving the entire cast in shock.
* LackOfEmpathy: His response to Barry yelling that he doesn't care about the people he's killed? Emphatically state that indeed he doesn't.
* LanternJawOfJustice: He definitely has a solid square jaw. Cisco even points it out on at least one occasion.
* LaserGuidedKarma: It turns out that Zoom took the Velocity drugs to enhance his speed, but his addiction to increasing his powers is now slowly killing him. He wants to avoid his possible KarmicDeath by harnessing Barry's speed to cure himself.
* LightningBruiser: {{Pun}}s aside, he's literally described as the fastest speedster, and he's stronger than Barry and Eobard.
* LoveIsAWeakness: He proudly tells off Barry for caring about his friends and family, declaring them as a liability. Zoom even considers positive feelings he himself has to be a weakness; he falls into a trap set by Barry because he was distracted by memories of his childhood, and he later tries to murder a defenseless Caitlin despite her claiming that she wanted to be with him (thankfully, she was using a hologram to trick him).
* MalevolentMaskedMan: He sports a sinister-looking mask, and his evilness has been shown and described as elaborately as possible.
* ManipulativeBastard: He played Team Flash like an orchestra for the whole second season and succeeds at gaining the Flash's speed.
* MeaningfulName: "Zoom" means either to travel very quickly or to change smoothly from a long shot to a close-up or vice versa. Aside from the obvious fact that he is a speedster, he loves suddenly appearing up-close to his victims. His real name is Hunter, befitting his SerialKiller background.
* {{Misblamed}}: InUniverse. Barry initially distrusts Jay since his previous mentor, turned out to be an enemy. However, Jay notes that he had nothing to do with that. It takes time for Barry to realize that Jay was innocent. Subverted when it turns out the person they knew as "Jay" was Zoom all along.
* MoralityPet: Caitlin is able to talk Hunter out of killing Barry. Doesn't stop him from taking her as a prisoner or later trying to murder her for running away, though.
* MovieSuperheroesWearBlack:
** In the comics, Zoom's costume is essentially the same as Eobard Thawne's, just with black eye lenses. Here, it's all-black [[DarkIsEvil just to show that he's evil]]. Possibly a reference to the Black Flash and/or Black Racer, both of whom are embodiments of Death.
** This is also in effect with the suit he wears for his Jay Garrick persona. In the comics, Jay wears a bright red long-sleeved shirt with a big golden lightning bolt on it, as well as bright blue pants and red boots, the latter sometimes sporting golden Mercury wings. Here, "Jay" wears a dark maroon jacket with merely a golden outline of the lightning bolt, his pants are dark blue, his boots are dark brown with no wings, and he even wears dark brown gloves. This is yet another aspect of him twisting the legacy of the real Jay from Earth-3, who dons an outfit much more akin to comics Jay once freed from the iron mask.
* MrFanservice: Upon first meeting him, Caitlin and Iris [[EatingTheEyeCandy waste no time]] in complimenting [[ShirtlessScene his physique]].
* MultiversalConqueror: Decides to become one once he solves his YouSeeImDying issue, for no real reason other than ForTheEvulz.
* MurderIsTheBestSolution: To an even greater extent than the Reverse Flash. While Thawne at least makes a token effort at justifying his murders with BecauseDestinySaysSo and [[OmniscientMoralityLicense the fact that the people in question are dead in his time anyway]], Zoom doesn't even bother trying to make an excuse. His first (and usually only) solution to any problem ([[ForTheEvulz including boredom]]) is to kill and/or [[IHaveYourWife threaten]] to kill someone.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: An AxCrazy SerialKiller named ''Hunter'' who also happens to be a speedster? '''Good luck''' trying to actually run away from him.
* NearVillainVictory: In "Enter Zoom", he is about to kill Barry before Cisco shoots him in the back with one of Wells' darts. And even then, it just drives him off.
* NeckSnap: In addition to the TeleFrag that evil speedsters use for execution, this is also a preferred method of murder.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: He ''cripples'' Barry with his own bare hands.
* NotSoAboveItAll: During Christmas, "Jay" playfully pranks Caitlin by pretending he doesn't know what the holiday is.
* NoSell: He just brushes off everything that Barry and his team throw at him. Even after being hit with a speed suppressing dart, Zoom is just inconvenienced, and only for about a second before he escapes.
* NotSoDifferent: He and Barry have similar origins: Both of their mothers were killed in front of them with both their fathers going to prison for it. However, while Barry's father was framed, Hunter's father did actually kill his mother. And while Barry was raised with love, Hunter had no one and grew up in darkness. Hunter insists that Barry could have easily been him.
** By the end of Season Two, Zoom has made it his mission to get Barry to kill him to prove they are the same. He exacerbates this by forcing Barry to watch as he murders Barry's father on the exact same spot where Eobard Thawne murdered Barry's mother. However, Barry ultimately proves him wrong; while Zoom killed his own time remnants without a thought, Barry's time remnant willingly sacrifices himself to save the multiverse, allowing Barry to leave a beaten Zoom to the [[ClockRoaches Time Wraiths]].
* NothingIsScarier: One of the things that makes Zoom so terrifying is that ''nothing'' is really known about him; he just showed up on Earth-2 after Wells' accident and started terrifying the populace. His identity, his appearance under the costume, why he's so much faster than Barry, and his motives (outside of stealing Barry's speed eventually) are all shrouded in mystery until later in the season.
* ObviouslyEvil: An entirely black outfit, demonic voice and appearance, constantly has blue lightning sparking around his body, and every scene he's in has him threatening or trying to kill someone.
* OhCrap: When he sees a cardboard picture of his father and realizes that Team Flash has discovered his true identity.
** He has an even bigger OhCrap moment when he sees the Time Wraiths hurtling towards him after Barry has beaten him in combat.
* OlderAndWiser: Sort of. He's capable of some tricks that Barry isn't aware of, but by his own admission he's only been the Flash in Earth-2 for a couple of years -- only around a year longer than Barry. It's then further subverted when he accepts Earth-2 Wells' long-standing admonishment that his refusal to take risks means he wasn't nearly as effective as he could have been, and calls Barry the better Flash.
** Later we understand why he has great knowledge of what being a speedster entails, since he acted as both the Flash and Zoom to give people hope, then take it away from them.
* OmnicidalManiac: He clearly has zero regard for human life and takes pride in killing so many people, but he ''really'' hits this trope with his attempt to trick Barry into helping him destroy the entire multiverse save for Earth-1.
* OrcusOnHisThrone: Rather than face the Flash himself, he coerces others like the Atom Smasher and the Sand Demon to dispose of the Scarlet Speedster for him. He's dying from the Velocity drug and he needs Barry's speed to cure it. He's been sending all of those metas so Barry will get stronger and faster as he fights them.
** Barry manages to lure him out in "Enter Zoom". Unfortunately for Barry, Zoom sees the ambush coming. [[CurbstompBattle Not that it likely would've made much difference considering the power difference between them at the time.]]
** In "Running to Stand Still", he reveals he doesn't want to kill Barry just yet -- he wants him to get faster so he can steal more Speed Force. Once he decides he's ready to steal Barry's speed he ''completely'' averts this and does almost everything himself, in fact the team has to close the portal just to keep him out.
* OrphanageOfFear: Implied to have ended up in one after his mother was murdered by his father.
* OutsideContextProblem: He's from another universe. Even on Earth-2, no one, with the possible exception of Wells, has any idea who Zoom is, although he makes sure that they're all afraid of him.
* PainfulTransformation: He is screaming in agony when he is being transformed (apparently as The Black Flash) by The Time Wraiths.
* ParentalAbandonment: A very unfortunate example. His father was sent to prison for killing his mother.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: He later kills Killer Frost, who had been quite the [[UngratefulBastard Ungrateful Bitch]] and tried to kill Caitlin after setting her free.
* PetTheDog: After stealing Barry's speed, he leaves him alive at Caitlin's urging. Then he promptly subverts it by kidnapping her.
* PhlebotinumDependence: Turns out that due to his use of the Velocity drug, he's dying and now needs to consume speed from others to survive.
* PowerIncontinence: A downplayed variant. Even while standing still and not blurring himself, he constantly has flashes of lightning sparking around his body. It's later revealed that his blue lightning is an effect of the Velocity drug's enhanced speed. Notably, Trajectory's lightning turned blue before she literally ran herself to death; oddly, this doesn't seem to be something that worries Zoom.
* PragmaticVillainy: The only reason he hasn't killed the Flash yet is so that he can steal Barry's speed and make himself more powerful. He also issued a standing order to his minions that any speedsters they encounter are to be left unharmed, presumably so Zoom can either steal their speed or kill them personally.
* {{Pride}}: Clearly a ''big'' part of Zoom's personality. He wants to kill every other speedster so that he can be the only one, and after easily overwhelming Barry, he declares himself "the fastest man alive". He also sounds almost ''insulted'' that Wells thought that Barry could beat him. Harry later relates an incident where Zoom massacred all but one of a SWAT team just so the survivor could spread the word and rub in to the police that they couldn't stop Zoom.
* PsychopathicManchild: Why did he assume the Jay Garrick alias? Because he finds it amusing to pretend to be a hero.
* PsychoticSmirk: In "Versus Zoom", once Zoom no longer has to hide his true self, he seems to relish giving this off to the members of Team Flash since he knows they'll give him the Flash's speed.
* RedBaron: "The Speed Demon". "The Crimson Comet" is a subversion since it's revealed that he stole it from the real Jay Garrick.
* RedIsHeroic: Played up for his Jay Garrick persona, [[MovieSuperheroesWearBlack though it's a much darker version of Jay's outfit in the comics]].
* TheResenter: He can't ''stand'' the existence of other speedsters and does everything he can to make sure he's the '''only one'''. When we find out his backstory, it's also implied that he hates Barry because while they both suffered familial tragedy, Barry was taken in by the West family, while Hunter was sent to a foster care since his remaining relatives refused to take him in.
* TheReveal:
** Jay Garrick is actually him; more specifically, the one who died was a time remnant of him ([[TimeyWimeyBall time travel was involved]]). Slightly less earth-shattering is the revelation that his true identity is Hunter Zolomon, convicted serial killer.
** In Episode 2x23, "The Race of His Life", we learn that Jay Garrick actually ''does'' exist, but he hails from Earth-3; Hunter kidnapped and imprisoned him behind an iron mask, stealing his name and making a costume based on his own in order to create the heroic persona.
* RoguesGalleryTransplant: Zoom is traditionally the ArchEnemy of the Wally West incarnation of the Flash, not Barry Allen or Jay Garrick.
* {{Sadist}}: Zoom clearly ''enjoys'' the suffering of others because it makes him feel above them. His entire motive for wreaking havoc is for the sheer entertainment value.
* SadisticChoice: He offers Caitlin the choice of either standing by his side when he conquers Earth-1 or die never reaching her friends before he slaughters them all.
* SecondEpisodeIntroduction: While he's mentioned in the Season Two premiere, we only get a brief glimpse of him from behind; he fully appears in the following episode. Subverted after TheReveal that he's actually "Jay Garrick", as he appeared throughout the Season Two premiere using that identity.
* SecretIdentity: Much like Eobard Thawne, Zoom's true identity remained a secret to even the viewer until near the end of the season, when it's revealed he is actually Hunter Zolomon, or to his "friends" on Earth-1, [[EvilAllAlong "Jay Garrick"]].
* SecretlyDying: He's dying from the Velocity drug, and he wants Barry's speed in order to cure it. After "Versus Zoom", he appears to have indeed been cured.
* SerialKiller: He loves targeting speedsters. "Versus Zoom" confirms he is one, and was one long before the Velocity drug made him have to try and kill to survive. He was convicted of twenty-three murders and locked away in a mental hospital.
* ShipTease: Caitlin takes quite an interest in "Jay", who wants to bond with her as well. They have an AlmostKiss before [[MomentKiller Dr. Light attacks them]]. Throughout the midseason finale, "Jay" playfully flirts with Caitlin, prompting Cisco to tell them to just kiss and get it over with. They indeed become a couple, only for "Jay" to drop the death of his time remnant on Team Flash, further pushing them to the depths of despair. Next time Caitlin meets him, she knows that he's nothing but a monster, even if she tries to make him remember his feelings for her in order to stop him from choking Barry to death; in the season finale, she plays upon those feelings to distract him, but he shows that he's stopped caring at all when he tries to kill her.
** In "Back To Normal", it's revealed that his feelings for Caitlin led him to spare Killer Frost, though he still kills her when she tries to kill Caitlin.
* ShoutOut: When he breaks the Flash's back and parades him around Central City, it's very reminiscent of [[ComicBook/{{Knightfall}} Bane's trademark story]].
* SkeletonsInTheCoatCloset: Downplayed, but his mask is reminiscent of a demonic skull. "Versus Zoom" suggests that the mask was inspired by one he wore while undergoing electro-convulsive therapy.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Okay, not really ''small'' name, since he's an infamous criminal. However, he loves boasting that he has "conquered" the entirety of Earth-2, yet the only place he seems to have taken over is Central City.
* SmugSuper: He's deeply confident in his own abilities, and for good reason. However, he proves to be capable of making little mistakes that trip him up.
* TheSociopath: Has been called as such by [[WordOfGod his actor in an interview]], and his LackOfEmpathy and murderous tendencies more than back up that claim. He is also [[ConsummateLiar able to lie very well]] and [[FauxAffablyEvil has a charm to him]], as well as [[SmugSuper an overly-inflated sense of self worth]] to the point that the ''suggestion'' of someone being superior to him is a BerserkButton. After his initial scheme to save his own life succeeds, he demonstrates the characteristic poor impulse control of a low-functioning sociopath, moving from one plan to another whenever a new one comes to mind as being amusing (kidnapping Caitlin, taking over Earth-2, and then ''destroying'' the multiverse). He even admits that stealing Jay Garrick's identity was more or less ''solely'' done to sate his boredom, and even using a time remnant as part of posing as Jay for Team Flash seemed more about the inevitable payoff of killing the remnant in front of them rather than any practical reason.
* TheSpook: He's a speedster who wants to kill off every other speedster. That pretty well sums up everything we know about him for most of the season. Even Jay, his ArchEnemy, has no idea who Zoom really is. It's heavily implied that Earth-2 Wells knows more about him, but he's not exactly forthcoming with information.
* StalkerWithoutACrush: He's been tracking down Barry and the S.T.A.R. Labs crew ever since the Season One finale. He lampshades the UnfortunateImplications of his actions when he finally comes out to them.
* StevenUlyssesPerhero: His real name is Hunter '''Zo'''l'''om'''on.
* StockholmSyndrome: Intends to invoke this trope on Caitlin since he still loves her and hopes she feels the same. Caitlin naturally isn't interested.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: He looks a lot like his father.
* SuperSpeed: He's a powerful speedster and EvilCounterpart to the Flash.
* SuperpowerLottery: He's the most powerful villain in the multiverse, since he has virtually no weakness.
* TallDarkAndHandsome: He stands a whopping 6'4 and is a {{Hunk}} to boot. His hair is more auburn/light brown than actually dark brown, though.
* TallDarkAndSnarky: Once his [[BrokenMasquerade masquerade is over]], he starts giving insanely sarcastic remarks.
* ThereCanOnlyBeOne: His main goal, aside from saving his own life, is to be the only speedster left in the entire {{Multiverse}}.
* TheresNoPlaceLikeHome: Zoom seems to be fond of invoking this for the metahumans he press gangs into his service. "Wanna go back to Earth-2? Kill the Flash for me."
* TheyLookJustLikeEveryoneElse: He looks like an attractive man underneath his mask.
* {{Touche}}: When Barry manages to outspeed him and figure out who he really is, he's genuinely impressed.
* TokenGoodTeammate: Halfway through Season Two and he's been the only heroic metahuman from Earth-2 to show up. Subverted, as the only reason "The Flash" even exists on Earth-2 is because Zoom wanted a hero to create hope that he could then take away.
* TrappedInAnotherWorld: DoubleSubverted. He makes this excuse as "Jay" when he was introduced, stating that he lost his speed and was sucked from Earth-2. As written here many times, it's a lie. However, the Time Wraiths drag him into the Speed Force in the Season Two finale.
* TragicKeepsake: The helmet, given to him by his dad...before his dad killed his mom right in front of him.
* {{Trigger}}: Images of his parents and being called a monster give him flashbacks.
* TwoAliasesOneCharacter: He is also "Jay Garrick" aka "The Flash", having stolen that name from the real Jay.
* TheUnfettered: Being an entirely selfish, psychotic sociopath, Zoom has no limits in what he's willing to do to achieve his goals. He's crossed dimensions, killed his own time remnants, posed as a hero, violated the laws of the Speed Force, and (of course) brutally murdered scores of people, all to get what he wants (saving his own life and causing a whole lot of carnage).
* VictoryIsBoring: Decides to become a MultiversalConqueror since he's already taken over his own Earth and, well, it's something to do.
* VileVillainSaccharineShow: The show is (relatively) lighthearted compared to ''Arrow'', but this guy is absolutely ''despicable'' and even makes the Reverse-Flash look reasonable by comparison. See HateSink, KickTheDog, and ForTheEvulz for examples.
* VillainHasAPoint: After he rescues Caitlin from Killer Frost, he correctly points out that he saved her from a woman who was an ObviouslyEvil AxCrazy psychopath despite her reaction of horror.
* VillainOfAnotherStory: What he was before discovering the breaches. He terrorized his own Earth (and apparently other Earths in the multiverse, including Earth-3) before discovering Earth-1 and Barry. Although he becomes the villain of the main story in short order, and by the end of the season, [[OmnicidalManiac everyone's story]].
* VillainousBreakdown: He becomes increasingly unhinged during the final act of Season Two, particularly once his identity has been exposed. However, he gets his biggest one when [[ClockRoaches the Time Wraiths]] show up after his defeat. His SmugSuper mentality vanishes into screaming in horror before they [[DraggedOffToHell drag him off to his fate]].
** He also doesn't take it well when he's proven wrong about [[NotSoDifferent Barry being just like him]], via Barry's time remnant pulling a HeroicSacrifice to save the multiverse.
* VillainousCrush: On Caitlin, which developed during his time posing as Jay.
* VillainousGlutton: Harry figures out why Zoom keeps sending metahuman after metahuman to confront Barry. It's all to strengthen the Speed Force inside Barry. That way, there's more of it to consume when Zoom decides he wants to kill Barry for good. Harry even describes it as "fattening [Barry] up like a Christmas Goose". It later turns out that he's dying from the Velocity drug and he needs Barry's speed to cure it.
* VillainousRescue: He saves Barry from Reverb and Deathstorm, killing both of them for ignoring his orders and trying to kill Barry, and later saves Caitlin from Killer Frost, killing her as well.
* VoiceOfTheLegion: His disguised voice, already deep and demonic, has a subtle echo to it. When he absorbs some of Barry's speed courtesy of Harry's device, the echo briefly becomes far more obvious.
* WalkingSpoiler: He already is one to an extent from the start, but becomes moreso once his identity is revealed.
* WasOnceAMan: According to Harrison Wells of Earth-2, he ''was'' human. Not anymore, though.
* WeAreStrugglingTogether: Jay and Wells hate each other, to the point of coming to blows when they have to work together to help Barry fight Dr. Light.
* WeCanRuleTogether: He offers Caitlin a chance to be with him when he conquers Earth-1.
* WhamShot:
** His sudden appearances will often change the tone of an entire episode, as he did in "Enter Zoom" and "Welcome to Earth-2".
** In "King Shark", Zoom removes his mask, revealing that he has been "Jay Garrick" the whole time.
* WouldHitAGirl: Dr. Light is very afraid of Zoom, and, in "Welcome to Earth-2", he throttles Killer Frost and kills her a few episodes later.
* WouldHurtAChild: It's no secret that he submitted [[TeenGenius Jesse]] to ColdBloodedTorture.
* XanatosSpeedChess: As he himself notes in "Versus Zoom", the wormhole opening in his world which led to another world with its very own Flash was unexpected, but it provided him with a way to undo his own imminent death; everything he did throughout the season was a long gambit in order to absorb Barry's speed.
** About three-quarters through the season Barry ''finally'' manages to become faster than Zoom, meaning Zoom can no longer successfully face his nemesis directly in combat; however, he makes up for this in other ways, such as by bringing over an army of Earth-2 metahumans and by threatening innocents (including Barry's friends and loved ones) to distract Barry.
* {{Yandere}}: He's become obsessed with Caitlin, to the point where he abducted her and keeps her imprisoned in his lair. In fact, the only reason he allowed Killer Frost to live was because she reminded him of her. That is until he finally captured the real version that he desired. He later gave Caitlin a choice: either stay with him, or die along with the rest of Team Flash.
* YouAreWhatYouHate: Implied by his reaction to being called a "monster", which his mother said to his father just before he murdered her.
* YouHaveFailedMe: He kills Deathstorm and Reverb for trying to kill Barry against his orders. Though Reverb also wanted to be TheStarscream.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness:
** In Harry's story about how Zoom got his name, he informs us that Zoom massacred a whole unit of police officers, but purposely left one alive to warn the world about the threat he posed. After the officer did as he was told, Zoom [[ILied killed him anyway]] [[KickTheDog at his house]]. A none-too-subtle foreshadowing of what innocent lives mean to Zoom when he no longer requires them.
** He also offs Killer Frost after he captures Earth-1 Caitlin.
* YouMonster: Caitlin calls him out on his atrocious personality. This is also his BerserkButton.
* YourDaysAreNumbered: After their encounter with Trajectory, Team Flash realizes that Zoom is dying from the same side effects of the Velocity drug that killed Trajectory and was killing "Jay". This leads them to realize that "Jay" and Zoom are one and the same.

->'''Known Aliases:''' Atom Smasher
->'''Played By:''' [[Wrestling/{{Edge}} Adam Copeland]]

A metahuman who has the ability to absorb radiation, resulting in enhanced strength and durability and the ability to change size.
----
* AdaptationalVillainy: Normally portrayed as a hero and member of the ComicBook/JusticeSocietyOfAmerica.
* AndStarring: Gets this billing in the guest stars lineup.
* CelebrityParadox:
** The ''Franchise/{{Highlander}}'' franchise was acknowledged by Cisco to exist in the Franchise/{{Arrowverse}}. His actor appeared as a {{Mook}} in ''Film/HighlanderEndgame''.
** The ''Film/JamesBond'' film series is acknowledged to exist in this universe. The film franchise had a few former Wrestling/{{WWE}} wrestlers in their films, one of which is Wrestling/{{Batista}}, who played TheDragon in ''Film/{{Spectre}}''. Batista and Rothstein's actor had a storied rivalry.
* ChekhovsGunman: Dr. Wells mentioned him in Season One as one of the casualties of the Particle Accelerator explosion. However, in Season Two, he's said to have been [[ContinuitySnarl away on his honeymoon]] when it happened, so they believe he couldn't have become a metahuman.
* CoolMask: Much like his comic counterpart.
* DeathByAdaptation: His comic counterpart is still alive and a member of the Justice League. This version didn't live long enough to reform.
* EvilSoundsDeep: To the point where he sounds like he's growling at Barry.
* EvilTwin: Killed his Earth-1 counterpart for no valid reason, as he's not even attempting to KillAndReplace him.
* TheresNoPlaceLikeHome: The only reason he tried to kill Barry is because Zoom said he would bring him back to his world if he did.
* NotQuiteDead: He first appears as a murder victim. Atom Smasher's actually from a parallel world, and Zoom brought him into this one to kill the Flash. It's implied Atom Smasher killed his own counterpart.
* ShoutOut: His first physical appearance, wearing a dark mask and black trench coat, is very reminiscent of Bane from ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises''.
* SizeShifter: Can grow in size by absorbing radiation.
* SleevesAreForWimps: Much like his comic counterpart, he wears a sleeveless costume.
* StarterVillain: He's the very first MonsterOfTheWeek for Season Two.
* SuperStrength: Even at his normal size, he's extraordinarily strong.

->'''Known Aliases:''' Sand Demon
->'''Played By:''' Kett Turton

A metahuman able to transform his cells into a sand-like substance.
----
* DeathByAdaptation: Barry kills him with his lightning attack.
* DishingOutDirt: Cosmetically, since he doesn't truly turn into sand.
* ElementalShapeshifter: Can dissolve and reform at will, and use his power for offense and defense.
* EvilTwin: Downplayed. While his Earth-1 counterpart is also a criminal, he's more willing to get his hands dirty. His counterpart is more or less a DirtyCoward.
* LiterallyShatteredLives: After Barry turns him into glass, he falls back shattering into pieces.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted. He shares his first name with Eddie Thawne of Season One.
* RedHerring: Has a counterpart on the main Earth (Earth-1) who is powerless, like Atom Smasher. The other Slick is mistaken for him and arrested, but it's ruled out that he's a metahuman since he wasn't in the city when the Particle Accelerator exploded.
* TakenForGranite: He's turned into glass by Flash's lightning strike.

[[quoteright:280:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/king_shark.jpg]]

->'''Known Aliases:''' King Shark
->'''Voiced By:''' Creator/DavidHayter

A metahuman with the physical characteristics of a shark, sent by Zoom.
----
* AdaptationNameChange: Shay Lamden instead of Nanaue.
* AdaptationSpeciesChange: Here he's a metahuman, rather than a demigod.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: The DNA from his teeth ID'd as human, but to look at him, "human" is probably the last word that would come to mind. "King Shark" confirms that he ''was'' human before the particle accelerator turned him into what he is now.
* AnimalThemedSuperBeing: Shark powers.
* AscendedExtra: His first appearance in "The Fury of Firestorm" was just as a fleeting cameo to please the fans, with Andrew Kreisberg calling him "a very expensive 35 seconds" and claiming that since he was the only Suicide Squad member they could use, they decided to go for it, but they unfortunately didn't have the budget for a full episode with the guy. A month later, after much acclaim and excitement over the effect, an entire episode was announced with him as the main villain.
* BadassInDistress: He's under A.R.G.U.S. custody on Earth-1 as of Season 2.
* BondVillainStupidity: Despite taking the Flash lure out in one swipe, when he comes across the actual Flash, he seems to want to spend all his time telling Barry that he's going to kill him rather than actually DOING it.
* BrickJoke: He's briefly referenced in Episode 2x04 before he shows up in the very last minute of it.
* TheBrute: He's huge. Being a literal ThreateningShark helps.
* {{Determinator}}: Even while trapped in ARGUS custody for weeks, King Shark refused to give up his hunt for the Flash. According to Lyla, he kept repeating "Zoom wants the Flash dead" while in prison.
* EvilSoundsDeep: He's not going to be singing soprano any time soon.
* EvilTwin: His Earth-1 counterpart is said to be a FriendToAllLivingThings.
* GoneHorriblyRight : [[GoneHorriblyWrong Unlike his Earth-1 counterpart,]] he completed and survived his metahuman transformation; meaning he's stuck as a giant cannibalistic monstrosity.
* IconicSequelCharacter: Does not appear in the series until Season 2.
* ImAHumanitarian: A.R.G.U.S agents make for good eating as far as he's concerned.
* ImmuneToBullets: Immune to police-issued pistols and the assault rifles used by ARGUS.
* TheJuggernaut: He's ''huge'' and super strong.
* JumpScare: He appears out of nowhere to grab the Flash by the neck. He pulls it off again in "King Shark", ripping the ceiling off of the West's house to try and find the Flash.
* LightningBruiser: He can keep up to the Flash when they're on water. He's also fast enough on land to get away from A.R.G.U.S. agents after eating a team of them.
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: Being a shark and all, he has a whole load of fangs.
* OnlyMostlyDead: The energy gun only knocked him out, but his "corpse" was taken away by ARGUS and he was declared dead. In reality, ARGUS had him in a special holding facility and there were plans to weaponize him and other captured metahumans.
* PettingZooPeople: He has a more humanoid form compared to, say, Grodd.
* RoguesGalleryTransplant: He's normally a ComicBook/{{Superboy}} villain.
* ScarilyCompetentTracker: He can sense and differentiate bio-electricity at long distances and uses that to locate his prey.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: He only appeared for almost a minute, but this appearance is what connects Earth-2 Wells to the main StoryArc. That, [[OneSceneWonder and it's pretty damn memorable]].
* SmarterThanYouLook: He successfully breaks out of A.R.G.U.S. and tracks down the Flash's home.
* StalkerWithoutACrush: He's persistently hunting the Flash down to kill him for Zoom and even manages to finds Barry's house.
* StealthHiBye: Despite being a huge shark-man, he easily springs out of nowhere to eat someone and disappear with no one the wiser.
* SuperPersistentPredator: Weeks, maybe months in an ARGUS prison, followed by the revelation that he was trapped on Earth-1, did absolutely nothing to dissuade King Shark from hunting the Flash for Zoom.
* SuperSpeed: When swimming, he is almost fast enough to catch up with Barry.
* ThreateningShark: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin As his name would imply.]]
* TrappedInAnotherWorld: In A.R.G.U.S.' custody in Earth-1 since he attacked Barry. After escaping and attempting {{Revenge}}, Barry defeated him and is retaken by A.R.G.U.S.
* UncertainDoom: Before he can take a bite out of Barry, Dr. Wells shoots him in the back, but it's unknown whether this killed him or stunned him, since nobody reports his current status. It's later revealed that he survived, but ARGUS took his body and falsely declared him dead as a cover for their plans to weaponize him.
* UndyingLoyalty: Out of all the metahumans that Zoom has sent after the Flash, King Shark seems to be one of the few (maybe the only one) who's actually loyal to Zoom rather than being strong-armed into working for him. Even after he learns that the breaches have all been closed and that he has no hope of returning to Earth-2, King Shark continues to obsessively hunt the Flash for Zoom.
* WasOnceAMan: He used to be a normal man working as a marine biologist. Then the particle accelerator turned him into King Shark.

[[caption-width-right:339:[[labelnote:Click here to see her unmasked.]]http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/earth_2_linda_unmasked.jpg]][[/labelnote]]

->'''Known Aliases:''' Dr. Light
->'''Played By:''' Creator/MaleseJow

A metahuman that can draw power from starlight. She is the Earth-2 counterpart of Linda Park.
----
* AdaptationalNationality: As a result of being a CompositeCharacter, she's now of Korean descent instead of Japanese.
* AdaptationalVillainy: There are two Doctors Light in the comics, and the one this version is based on is a hero. She's actually a downplayed example, being an AntiVillain [[ThouShallNotKill who does not kill]].
* AloofDarkHairedGirl: She's quite rigid.
* AntiVillain: All she wants is to be free of Zoom. Even before he brought her to Earth-1, she'd never killed anyone, and is horrified when she accidentally does so.
* BadassInDistress: She was briefly imprisoned on S.T.A.R. Labs on Earth-1 until she escapes Team Flash.
* BadassLongcoat: She has a labcoat styled one as part of her costume. During her climatic fight with Barry, she wears a more traditional one.
* CompositeCharacter: She has the costume and abilities of Kimiyo Hoshi, but her civilian identity is Linda Park, leading to quite a shock for Barry when he first confronts her. She's also a villain like the original Doctor Light.
* CoolHelmet: Part of her costume.
* DarkActionGirl: ZigZagged. She doesn't hesitate to cause chaos, but she [[KillAndReplace usually]] has a strong ThouShallNotKill code.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: She's only a thief who had never killed anyone before Zoom got to her, and is horrified when she does it accidentally.
* EvilTwin: For Linda Park, though she's more of a desperate AntiVillain than outright evil and views her attempted KillAndReplace as a ShootTheDog.
* GlassCannon: Her stats are slightly higher than [[FragileSpeedster Killer Frost's]]. Like her, Dr. Light's powers manifest in a fast rate, enabling her to perform multiple and continuous attacks, and they all hit their targets quickly. Unlike her, however, she has better rate at hitting speedster opponents, and her HardLight causes more damage to her targets. She can also create blinding lights for defensive purposes, and is more durable than her [[note]] though to be fair, her outfit probably has more protection given its design compared to Killer Frost's CivvieSpandex [[/note]] physically.
* GodzillaThreshold: Light's fear of Zoom is apparently strong enough to overwhelm her aversion to killing people. She doesn't go after the Flash as ordered, but she is willing to KillAndReplace Earth-1's Linda to get away from Zoom.
* HardLight: Her powers allow her to create hard light and laser constructs.
* IJustWantToBeFree: The chaos she causes on Earth-1 and her KillAndReplace attempt on her counterpart are fueled by her desperation to escape from Zoom's clutches.
* {{Invisibility}}: She can do it with light.
* InvisibleStreaker: It isn't really brought up, but she leaves her clothes behind in her escape. Conveniently leaving them for Earth-1 Linda to play her.
* IronicName: For a woman named "Light", her power causes (temporary) blindness.
* KillAndReplace: Attempts this on her Earth-1 counterpart in order to try and hide from Zoom.
* LightEmUp: She draws power from starlight. She can create blinding flashes and make lasers strong enough to cut through bank walls.
* LightIsNotGood: Literally. Though she's more of a desperate AntiVillain than outright evil.
* MeaningfulName: Being the sole TokenGoodTeammate from Zoom and his associates shown, she could be described as "a light in an otherwise very dark group".
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: She's clearly horrified when she accidentally kills a man.
* NobleDemon: She's a thief but she does not kill her victims, and is visibly upset over her AccidentalMurder of her Earth-1 counterpart's [[AFAtherToHisMen boss]].
* PowerPalms: How she channels her powers. Draws energy from starlight, directs it as a beam attack through her palm. Sometimes as a poorly explained area attack.
* ScrewThisImOutOfHere: She makes every effort to just skip town and put as much distance as possible between her and Zoom rather than kill the Flash as ordered.
* ShootTheDog: How she views her KillAndReplace attempt on her Earth-1 counterpart, as she views it necessary to escape from Zoom's clutches.
* ThouShallNotKill: She personally wants to avoid killing. Unfortunately, Zoom's threat is so bad that it pushes her to consider to KillAndReplace her Earth-1 counterpart just to escape his clutches.
* TokenGoodTeammate: The most moral of Zoom and his associates.
* TrappedInAnotherWorld: Is taking refuge at Earth-1 after being defeated by Barry.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: While the team makes a brief effort to find her after she escapes, once they've developed an alternative plan to lure Zoom, they seem to forget all about Doctor Light.
* WomanInWhite: Her costume is mostly white with black accents.

->'''Played By:''' Creator/DaniellePanabaker

A metahuman with ice powers who, with her husband and literal partner-in-crime Ronnie Raymond aka Deathstorm, works for Zoom. She is the Earth-2 counterpart of Caitlin Snow.
----
* AdaptationalAttractiveness: In the comics, the Caitlin Snow version of Killer Frost has the most menacing appearance. This version has a very feminine appearance akin to the Crystal Frost and Louise Lincoln versions.
* AdaptationalModesty: All versions of Killer Frost has FanserviceCostumes, specifically a combo of either a LeotardOfPower or a SensualSpandex, sometimes accompanied with AbsoluteCleavage. This version wears CivvieSpandex consisting of a leather jacket, corset, and leather pants.
* AssholeVictim: Zoom kills her after she attempted to kill Caitlin. Since the attempt happened after Caitlin worked hard to free her from her cell, it's hard to feel sorry for her.
* AstonishinglyAppropriateAppearance: A woman with white hair, very pale skin and ice powers named Caitlin Snow aka Killer Frost.
* AvengingTheVillain: Rebels against Zoom in order to avenge her dead husband Deathstorm.
* AxCrazy: Well, she is called ''Killer'' Frost.

* CivvieSpandex: She wears a dark blue leather jacket, corset, and leather pants.
* ColdHam: Excusing the IncrediblyLamePun, she speaks in a very "theatrical subdued" manner.
* CombatMedic: While she mentioned that she flunked med school, she didn't specified if she actually failed at admissions or if she just flunked at the board exams. Either way, she implies that she at least finished pre-med, meaning she has some medical training.
* CombatStilettos: She is sporting mid-heeled boots in combat.
* CompositeCharacter: She takes her name from the third Killer Frost, but her romantic backstory with Ronnie Raymond is incorporated from Crystal Frost, the first Killer Frost.
* CynicismCatalyst: Her dead little brother, who apparently caused her to become cold, as well as her mother.
* DecompositeCharacter: In the comics, she is the supervillain that Caitlin will become. This version is confirmed to be an AlternateSelf of the main one who was given AdaptationalHeroism.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: She and Deathstorm genuinely love each other. She's devastated when Zoom kills him.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: She helps Wells get his daughter Jesse back after finding out about Zoom's torture dungeon.

-->'''Frost:''' It's so much more fun to be bad.
* EvilIsDeathlyCold: An ice-based supervillain.
* EvilIsHammy: Danielle Panabaker is ChewingTheScenery with ColdHam.
* EvilTwin: For Caitlin.
* FauxAffablyEvil: She exhibits a playful demeanor around her victims. She's perfectly happy to kill them regardless.
* FragileSpeedster: Her ice powers rarely hits hard unlike the powers of her husband, Reverb, Rupture or Black Siren, and she herself is prone to attacks. However, said powers manifest in a fast rate, enabling her to perform multiple and continuous attacks (particularly her ice shards), and they all hit their targets quickly unless it's a speedster.
* HappilyMarried: She and Deathstorm, despite being murderous villains, seem very happy together.
* HazyFeelTurn: She helps team Flash find Zoom after the death of her husband Deathstorm]], but it's unknown whether she truly wants to help them out the goodness in her heart or if she just hates Zoom for what he's done to her. Subverted when she tries to kill Caitlin.
* HellBentForLeather: She's wearing an overall leather outfit.
* HoistByHerOwnPetard: Zoom kills her using her own icicle.
* AnIcePerson: She has ice based powers.
* IcyBlueEyes: Unlike Caitlin's brown eyes, Killer Frost has light blue eyes that reflect her cold personality and ice powers.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Zoom stabs her with her own ice shard.
* InSpiteOfANail: She ended up a widow like her Earth-1 counterpart.
* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: Bet you thought that the IceQueen was starting to warm up after she helped Team Flash out. She loses all sympathy when she attempts to kill Caitlin ForTheEvulz.
* KarmicDeath: She's stabbed by one of her own ice shards that she shot at Caitlin.
* KillItWithIce: She fights using her ice based powers.
* MeaningfulName: A woman named Snow with ice powers.
* MysticalWhiteHair: She has white hair and has ice powers.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Seriously, ''Killer'' Frost.
* NotSoDifferent:

* OfCorsetsSexy: She's wearing a blue corset under her leather jacket.
* OnlySaneWoman: In her debut episode, she's the only one of Zoom's minions who realizes that trying to kill the Flash, in violation of Zoom's orders, is a bad idea. This ends up saving her life, while Deathstorm and Reverb aren't so lucky.
* OutlawCouple: WordOfGod describes her and Deathstorm as "the Metahuman ''Film/BonnieAndClyde''".
* PainfulTransformation: She tells her Earth-1 counterpart that she felt unbearable cold before her hair turns white the first time she became Killer Frost.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Much like their Earth-1 counterparts, this version of Ronnie Raymond and Caitlin Snow are married. They're enemies in the comics, but not without the FoeRomanticSubtext.
* ReplacementGoldfish: It is implied that the reason Zoom didn't kill her after her betrayal was because she looks like Earth-1 Caitlin. Once he kidnaps Caitlin, Zoom has no qualms at all about gutting Frost.
* ThatManIsDead: Implied as she hates being referred to by her birth name.
* TragicDropOut: She flunked out of Medical School, in contrast to her Earth-1 Counterpart.

->'''Known Aliases:''' Deathstorm
->'''Played By:''' Creator/RobbieAmell

A metahuman with fire powers who, along with his wife and literal partner-in-crime Caitlin Snow aka Killer Frost, works for Zoom. He is the Earth-2 counterpart of the ([[NeverFoundTheBody apparently]]) late Ronnie Raymond.
----
* AdaptationalAttractiveness: In the comics, Deathstorm has a skull face with FlamingHair ala ComicBook/GhostRider. This version retains the TallDarkAndHandsome appearance of his actor.
* AdaptationalVillainy: In the comics, Deathstorm eventually regained his senses. This version is confirmed by WordOfGod as Ronnie's EvilTwin.
* AdaptationDyeJob: Deathstorm's fire powers in the comics are [[TechnicolorFire black]]. Here, it's regular fire like Firestorm's.
* AlliterativeName: '''R'''onnie '''R'''aymond.
* AndStarring: Is credited with "Special Guest Star" citations.
* AssholeVictim: Is offed by Zoom near the end of his debut episode. Considering [[AndIMustScream what he did to Stein]] and the fact that he was trying to kill Barry at the time, it's hard to feel very sorry for him.
* BattleCouple: He and [[UnholyMatrimony Killer Frost]] usually fight together.
* DeathByAdaptation: Ironically, Deathstorm is Ronnie in the comics after he CameBackWrong. But unlike in the comics where he regained his self, Zoom offed him here.
* DecompositeCharacter: In the comics, Deathstorm is Ronnie after he CameBackWrong. This version is instead confirmed to be Ronnie's AlternateSelf.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He clearly loves Killer Frost, abandoning a fight with Barry after she is injured.
* EvilIsBurningHot: A fire-based supervillain.
* EvilTwin: For Ronnie.
* EvilWearsBlack: He's clad in a black outfit. Suffice to say, he's evil.
* FlyingFirepower: Much like the Firestorms from the main universe, he can fly using his fire-based powers.
* FusionDance: Much like the Firestorm from the main universe. Unlike them, however, they never reconciled and one ended up trapping the other inside to the very end.
* HappilyMarried: Surprisingly enough, he and Killer Frost are very happy together.
* HellBentForLeather: He's wearing an overall leather outfit.
* HotGuysAreBastards: A TallDarkAndSnarky sociopath, not to mention being [[EvilIsBurningHot literally hot]].
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Zoom skewers him with a vibrating hand for disobeying his orders.
* JackOfAllStats: He is a powerful metahuman with seemingly balanced fighting stats. While he obviously can't keep up with a speedster, he can keep up immediately if the speedster stops just for a few seconds (as seen in his first battle with Barry). His powers also hit hard, but not as hard as [[GlassCannon Reverb's]], [[MightyGlacier Rupture's]] or [[GlassCannon Black Siren's]]. He's also quite durable as he was never knocked down by Barry in a straight-up fight (and Zoom only killed him via a surprise vibrating hand InTheBack).
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Seriously, ''Death''storm.
* OutlawCouple: WordOfGod describes him and Killer Frost as "the Metahuman ''Film/BonnieAndClyde''".
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Much like their Earth-1 counterparts, this version of Ronnie Raymond and Caitlin Snow are married. They're enemies in the comics, but not without the FoeRomanticSubtext.
* SplitPersonalityTakeover: Ronnie eventually dominates the Firestorm matrix and traps Stein in his head.
* StuffedInTheFridge: His death is what made Killer Frost to turn on Zoom.
* TallDarkAndHandsome: Like Ronnie, he stands 5'11.
* TallDarkAndSnarky: He definitely has his snarky moments.
* TwoFirstNames: Much like his Earth-1 counterpart.
* UnholyMatrimony: With Caitlin/Killer Frost.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: Zoom kills him near the end of his debut episode.

->'''Played By:''' Victor Garber

A metahuman that was once half of Deathstorm, though Ronnie has permanently locked him away. He is the Earth-2 counterpart of Prof. Martin Stein.
----
* AdaptationalHeroism: Usually, the Martin Stein Deathstorm is a madman possessing a corpse; here, he is evidently a victim kept suppressed by Ronnie
* AndIMustScream: Ronnie permanently keeps him locked away in his head, and he doesn't talk anymore. Fortunately for him, Deathstorm's demise means he is released.
* DespairEventHorizon: He's been trapped inside Ronnie for so long that he lost all hope. Deathstorm's death at least frees him.
* FateWorseThanDeath: He's locked inside the mind and body of a psychopath for years. Even after they die, he didn't leave a corpse for his family to mourn (''if'' he had a family at all).
* TheGhost: He is present, but since Ronnie locked him away, he is never seen or heard.
* NoBodyLeftBehind: Ronnie traps him in his head. And with Deathstorm's death, he dies along with Ronnie but without leaving a corpse.
* PunchClockVillain: We don't actually know if he's evil or not, but nonetheless, Ronnie traps him in his mind so he can gain full access to the Firestorm matrix's power.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: All we learned was that he was kept locked away in Ronnie's mind before dying.

!![[ComicBook/{{Vibe}} Francisco "Cisco" Ramon / Reverb]]
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/earth_2_cisco.jpg]]

->'''Known Aliases:''' Reverb
->'''Played By:''' Carlos Valdes

A metahuman who works with Zoom who can see the "vibrations" between the {{Multiverse}}. He is the Earth-2 counterpart of Cisco Ramon.
----
* AdaptationalVillainy: Reverb is the identity of Cisco's eldest brother in the comics who becomes a superhero to honor his memory.
* AGodAmI: Earth-2 Cisco says that he and his counterpart could be gods with their powers.
* AlliterativeFamily: '''R'''everb and '''R'''upture.
* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Knows full well how powerful he is. Unfortunately, Zoom is both faster (in every sense of the word) and physically stronger.
* BreakTheHaughty: He shows off a very arrogant nature, and even suggests betraying Zoom. All that confidence disappears ''fast'' when Zoom actually shows up.
* CoDragons: Black Siren implies that they share the position of Zoom's [[TheDragon Dragon]].
* ColdHam: Like Caitlin, he talks in a theatrically subdued manner.
* CompositeCharacter: Reverb is the identity of Cisco's (and Dante's) brother Armando in the New Earth continuity.
* DeathByAdaptation: Played with. Reverb is not killed in the comics, but Cisco was.
* DeathByIrony: He was killed by Zoom in the exact same manner Cisco was killed by Eobard Thawne during a negated timeline in Season One.
* DecompositeCharacter: In the comics, he was known as the villain Rupture prior to his HeelFaceTurn. Here, Rupture is his older brother.
* TheDragon: He presumably uses his powers to monitor activities on Earth-1 for Zoom.
* TheDreaded: Not to the level of Zoom, but he can scare Deathstorm and Killer Frost (two certified killers) into working for him.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He and his brother clearly care for each other, and he is out on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge for him. This is a stark contrast to their Earth-1 counterparts, who initially had a very long beef and only recently mended their relationship.
* EvilTwin: For Cisco.
* EvilSoundsDeep: His voice is noticeably deeper and more resonant than Earth-1 Cisco's.
* FauxAffablyEvil: Almost sounds like Earth-1 Cisco at times, but threatens to kill you in the next second.
* ForWantOfANail: Unlike Cisco and Dante on Earth-1, he and Rupture are really close. It takes Zoom killing Rupture for Cisco and Dante to reflect on their turbulent relationship and mend it for good.
* GlassCannon: He is a very powerful metahuman but is prone to attacks.
* {{Guyliner}}: Cisco mocks him for his affinity of wearing these.
* HellBentForLeather: He's wearing an overall leather outfit.
* MirrorMatch: He eventually fights Cisco.
* {{Seers}}: Unlike Cisco, he can do it voluntarily. He watched Earth-1 Cisco for a while and saw him come to Earth-2 even before he went through the breach.
* SiblingsInCrime: With his older brother Rupture.
* SinisterShades: His CoolShades looks more slick than Cisco's.
* SirNotAppearingInThisTrailer: Unlike Killer Frost's and Deathstorm's WolverinePublicity for the Earth-2 episodes, he instead appeared as an UnexpectedCharacter.
* SlipknotPonytail: Dons his hairstyle like a {{Samurai}} as Cisco (mockingly) puts it.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: He did not make it out alive past his introduction episode, but his encounter with Cisco is enough for the latter to realize the potentials that his powers have.
* SmugSmiler: Is sporting an overconfident grin when he first met Cisco.
* SmugSnake: He's extremely confident, even expressing a desire to overthrow Zoom. This falls apart in a hurry when Zoom shows up.
* TheSouthpaw: Apparently he is left-handed, though his only appearance shows him as ambidextrous or at least cross-dominant.
* TheStarscream : He tries to take over Zoom's operation... and then gets a vibrating hand for his troubles.
* TwoFirstNames: Per the Creator/DCComics norm.
* UnexpectedCharacter: No one, both InUniverse and out, expected Reverb's appearance.
* WeCanRuleTogether: He tries to win over his Earth-1 counterpart, telling him that he can teach him the full extent of his powers.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: Zoom kills him near the end of his debut episode.

->'''Known Aliases:''' Rupture
->'''Played By:''' Nicholas Gonzales

A metahuman who can manifest a scythe and shoots energy blasts from it. Much like in Earth-1, he is the older brother of Cisco.
----
* AdaptationalBadass: In a way. His comic counterpart is mainly the BadassNormal of the Ramon brothers. Here, he has metahuman superpowers.
* AdaptationalVillainy: His comic counterpart ultimately reformed to be Reverb after Cisco's death. He was never able to reform because Zoom killed him.
* AdaptationSpeciesChange: Dante is usually TheTeamNormal of the Ramon brothers. Here, he's a metahuman.
* AgeLift: In the comics, he and Cisco are around the same age. Here, he's clearly older and their actors' ages are 13 years apart.
* AlasPoorVillain: He loved his brother and only wanted to avenge him, getting killed by Zoom for his trouble.
* AlliterativeFamily: '''R'''upture and '''R'''everb.
* AvengingTheVillain: He is out on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge for Reverb's murder.
* CompositeCharacter: In the comics, Rupture is the villainous identity of his and Cisco's eldest brother Armando.
* DecompositeCharacter: In the comics, he becomes Reverb after his HeelFaceTurn. Here, Reverb is his younger brother.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He cares deeply for his brother Reverb and is out to avenge his death. This is a stark contrast to their Earth-1 counterparts, who initially had a very long beef and only recently mended their relationship.
* EvilSoundsDeep: His mask has a voice modulator similar to the ones [[Series/{{Arrow}} Team Arrow]] are using.
* EvilTwin: For Dante.
* ForWantOfANail: Unlike Dante and Cisco on Earth-1, he and Reverb are really close. It takes Zoom killing him for Dante and Cisco to reflect on their turbulent relationship and mend it for good.
* KnightTemplarBigBrother: He's out for revenge over his brother's death.
* LaserBlade: The blade in question is his SinisterScythe.
* MalevolentMaskedMan: Much like his comic counterpart.
* MightyGlacier: He's not very mobile, but both his SinisterScythe and the plasma energy that comes from it hits really hard.
* NeckSnap: How Zoom kills him.
* PlasmaCannon: His main power.
* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: He's wearing a mostly red outfit with black accents.
* ScarfOfAsskicking: His costume includes a purple scarf.
* SiblingsInCrime: With his younger brother Reverb.
* SinisterScythe: His WeaponOfChoice.
* TwoFirstNames: Per the Creator/DCComics norm.
* YouHaveFailedMe: After he fails to kill Cisco, Zoom kills him, tossing in a remark about Reverb's death for an extra KickTheDog.
* YouKilledMyFather: He is out for {{Revenge}} for his late brother, Reverb.

[[folder:Laurel Lance / Black Siren]]
!![[ComicBook/BlackCanary Dinah Laurel Lance / Black Siren]]
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/earth_2_laurel.jpg]]

->'''Known Alias:''' Black Siren
->'''Played By:''' Creator/KatieCassidy

A metahuman who can produce high frequency sonic waves through shouting and one of Zoom's most powerful ally. She is the Earth-2 counterpart of the late Team Series/{{Arrow}} member and Star(ling) City ADA Laurel Lance.
----
* AdaptationalBadass: The Black Siren in the ''Franchise/{{DCAU}}'' mostly serves as TheChick. Here, she does not hold back in kicking ass and even has the canonical [[MakeMeWannaShout superpower]] of the Black Canary.
* AdaptationalModesty: While her costume is closer to the Black Canary's comics outfit compared to Laurel's, it still covers a lot.
* AdaptationalVillainy: In the ''Franchise/{{DCAU}}'', she's a member of the Justice Guild of America in an AlternateUniverse. In this show, she's another evil metahuman who works for Zoom.
* AdaptationNameChange: Goes both ways. She goes by "Black Siren" instead of "Black Canary", but the Black Siren's real identity is Donna Nance. However, Nance is actually the ''Franchise/{{DCAU}}''[='=]s version of Dinah Drake Lance.
* AloofDarkHairedGirl: Has dark brown hair and is very snarky and sociopathic.
* AndStarring: Is credited with "Special Guest Star" citations.
* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Almost literally. Aside from knowing full well how powerful she is, she has actual combat skills to boast.
%%* BackupTwin: Heavily speculated, given that she was introduced a few episodes after Laurel was killed in ''Series/{{Arrow}}''. It remains to be seen if this will be the case.
* {{Badass}}: One of the most powerful metahumans featured in the show, she can bring down an entire office building with her sonic cry. On top of that she can handle herself without her powers.
* BadassInDistress: She's imprisoned on S.T.A.R. Labs on Earth-1 under Team Flash's custody as of Season 2.
* BadassLongcoat: She wears a {{Steampunk}} inspired trenchcoat.
* TheBaroness: {{Badass}} ActionGirl? Check. Wears leather? Check. TallDarkAndSnarky AloofDarkHairedGirl? Check.
* BeautyIsBad: A StatuesqueStunner [[note]] Well, 5'7 1/2 which is literally half-an-inch to be this trope[[/note]] in [[DarkActionGirl every]] [[TallDarkAndSnarky sense]] [[TrashTheSet of the word]].
* CelebrityParadox: "Bleeding Love" by Music/LeonaLewis is playing on the background while her Earth-1 counterpart and Oliver are talking during a flashback late in ''Series/{{Arrow}}'' Season 1. Her actress and the RealLife songwriter, Music/JesseMcCartney, previously dated, and he even admitted that he wrote that song for her after they broke-up.
* CoDragons: She implies that she shared the position of Zoom's [[TheDragon Dragon]] with Reverb.
* ColdHam: Like most villains on the show, [[EvilIsHammy she really likes to express it]], but in a slower, slightly quieter way.
* ColorCharacter: ''Black'' Siren.
* CombatStilettos: She sports mid-heeled boots in combat.
* CompositeCharacter: The Black Siren is the ''Franchise/{{DCAU}}''[='=]s version of the Dinah Drake Lance Black Canary [[labelnote:Explanation]] The AdaptationNameChange was done because they couldn't get the rights to the ''ComicBook/JusticeSocietyOfAmerica'', though its creators [[ApprovalOfGod gave their blessing]] to slightly alter the characters for them to use. [[/labelnote]], who is Dinah Laurel Lance's mother and predecessor. Here, it's the alias used by the Earth-2 Laurel Lance.
* DarkActionGirl: Very much so, as she's a dangerous and skilled metahuman working for the Season Two BigBad.
* DarkIsEvil: An EvilTwin to an Earth-1 hero who dresses head to toe in black leather and calls herself ''Black'' Siren.
* TheDragon: Zoom's most powerful ally. She's also the final VillainOfTheWeek of Season Two before the SeasonFinale. She also seems to be the only one of Zoom's minions who is aware of his true identity. At the very least, she's seen him with his mask off and neither of them comment on it.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: She seems uncomfortable of Zoom's ultimate EvilPlan, which she is also unaware of.
* EvilTwin: For Laurel.
* EvilIsHammy: She's not unlike [[ColdHam Killer Frost]] in that regard.
* FormFittingWardrobe: Wears a figure-hugging leather outfit sans the hemline of her BadassLongcoat.
* ForWantOfANail: On Earth-2 she became a metahuman, possibly due to being in Central City at the time. Her power is also an organic version of her Earth-1 counterpart's sonic device.
* GlassCannon: She is a very powerful metahuman capable of destroying structures who also has prowess in physical combat. Despite these skills, she is prone to attacks which is not helped by (or probably because of) her fondness for EvilGloating.
* HellBentForLeather: Her outfit is overall very leather-y. Those not covered by leather shows fishnets.
* IconicOutfit: Her outfit is more in line with her comic counterpart's than Laurel's. Looking at you, choker and fishnets!
%% * IconicSequelCharacter: Does not appear in the series until Season 2, and is heavily speculated to be her late Earth-1 counterpart's successor.
* InSpiteOfANail: She becomes an ActionGirl with a CodeName starting with Black like her her Earth-1 counterpart.
* LadyOfWar: She is Zoom's top lieutenant and leads his metahuman army from Earth-2.
* LateArrivalSpoiler: The death of her Earth-1 counterpart is brought up when she appears.
* MakeMeWannaShout: Unlike Earth-1 Laurel, her ability to cause damage by screaming comes from an actual superpower and is several orders of magnitude stronger.
* OfCorsetsSexy: She's wearing what looks like a corset underneath (or attached to?) her BadassLongcoat.
* SmugSmiler: She smiles in a sinister way.
* SparedByTheAdaptation: She performs a HeroicSacrifice in her only appearance in the ''Franchise/{{DCAU}}''. Here, she survives her episode.
* StatuesqueStunner: She nearly makes the cut at 5'7 1/2.
* {{Steampunk}}: Her costume design is heavily inspired by Medieval fashion.
* TallDarkAndSnarky: At 5'7 1/2, she's quite tall for a woman. She also happens to be a snarky AloofDarkHairedGirl, hitting all three trope criteria.
* TrappedInAnotherWorld: Currently incarcerated at S.T.A.R. Labs on Earth-1 after being defeated by Team Flash.
* TrashTheSet: She's introduced destroying Mercury labs, then several buildings afterwards. It is implied that Zoom usually assigns her for demolition missions.
* UnexpectedCharacter: Introduced to the Franchise/{{Arrowverse}} shortly after the death of her her Earth-1 counterpart who was there from the very beginning.
* WalkingSpoiler: Barry's encounter with her includes characters discussing Laurel's death on ''Series/{{Arrow}}''.
* WomanInBlack: She's [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Black]] Siren and is evil as they come.

[[folder:Robert Queen / The Arrow]]
!![[ComicBook/GreenArrow Robert Queen / The Arrow]]

->'''Known Aliases:''' The Star(ling) City Vigilante, The Hood, The Arrow
->'''Played By:''' Creator/JameySheridan

A billionaire from Star(ling) City who functions as a vigilante after he was shipwrecked. He is the Earth-2 counterpart of the late Star(ling) City business tycoon Robert Queen.
----
* ActionDad: He had a son. It's unknown if he also fathered Thea (either now biologically or still legally) in this Earth.
* AdaptationalBadass: Invoked by being a CompositeCharacter of ''The Longbow Hunters'' version of Robert Queen and the ''ComicBook/{{Flashpoint}}'' [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Thomas Wayne]], who is the resident BadassNormal superhero instead of his son.
* AmbiguousSituation: We don't know if he's completely incarcerated or if he has his own loyal {{Sidekick}} that took the blame for him just like what Roy Harper did on Earth-1 for his late son's Earth-1 counterpart.
* BadassBeard: Assuming that he also has a beard like his Earth-1 counterpart by the time he was shipwrecked, then he likely sports them. Unless he shaved them by the time he assumed his vigilantism, of course. If he does sports them, then this makes his appearance much closer to the comics Green Arrow than Show!Oliver has ever been.
* BadassGrandpa: Robert already has an adult son when he was LostAtSea. Assuming that he was also born on 1958 like his Earth-1 counterpart, then he's 56-57 by the time he was outed.
* BadassInDistress: First and last time we heard of him he's about to be incarcerated.
* BadassNormal: Doesn't have powers, but is a known VigilanteMan.
* BeardOfSorrow: If he does sports the aforementioned BadassBeard, then it also doubles as this since he cannot be a happy man after everything that happened to him.
* CompositeCharacter: This version is obviously a mix of ''The Longbow Hunters'' version of Robert Queen and the ''ComicBook/{{Flashpoint}}'' [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Thomas Wayne]].
* TheCowl: He ''is'' a VigilanteMan after all.
* CrimeFightingWithCash: He owns a huge corporation and works as a VigilanteMan.
* DownerEnding: The first and last time we heard of him is on the news about his arrest.
* TheGhost: He was never shown on-screen, just referred to.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: Of another Earth, and of a different city at that.
* InTheHood: A part of his costume.
* OutlivingOnesOffspring: The same accident where he was LostAtSea took the life of his son Oliver.
* SparedByTheAdaptation: Robert Queen is a PosthumousCharacter in most known {{Story Arc}}s.
* TheStraightAndArrowPath: Presumably his WeaponOfChoice.
* TrainingFromHell: He spent most of his time during the five years he was away to forge himself into a weapon.
* VigilanteMan: Works to make Starling City better on his own terms.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Oliver Queen]]
!![[ComicBook/GreenArrow Oliver Queen]]
->'''Played By:''' Creator/StephenAmell

Robert's son and heir who died during the shipwreck. He was the Earth-2 counterpart of the Star(ling) City vigilante/hero (and later Mayor) Oliver Queen.
----
* AdaptationalWimp: Invoked by being Oliver's much weaker and undeveloped AlternateSelf.
* CompositeCharacter: This version is obviously a mix of Oliver Queen and the ComicBook/{{Flashpoint}} [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Bruce Wayne]].
* DeathByOriginStory: His death is presumably one of the reasons (if not, the main) why his father became a VigilanteMan.
* KilledOffscreen: Died on a yacht trip several years before the story.
* NeverFoundTheBody: His presumed fate, given that it was a maritime accident that took his life.
* PosthumousCharacter: Died a few years before the actual story.

[[folder:Jay Garrick / The Flash (Earth-3)]]
!![[Franchise/TheFlash Jay Garrick / The Flash]]
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/flash_jay_garrick_pic.jpg]]
->'''Known Aliases:''' The Flash, The Crimson Comet, The Masked Man
->'''Played By:''' Creator/JohnWesleyShipp

The Flash of an alternate Earth, which he dubs "Earth-3". He first appears as a masked prisoner in Zoom's lair. He is then revealed to be the Earth-3 counterpart of Barry's late father Henry Allen (and presumably their respective Earth-2 counterparts), but was named Jay in his universe for various reasons.
----
* AlternateSelf: He's Henry Allen from Earth-3 (Henry's mother's maiden name is Garrick, explaining [[ForWantOfANail how Jay could end up with his name]]).
* AndIMustScream: The iron mask he was forced to wear hindered his ability to speak, so he had to resort to using tap codes to communicate. It also cut him off from the Speed Force, something that would be akin to losing a leg for a normal person. After being unmasked and getting cleaned up, he breaks it in half with a vibrating hand, not wanting to ever see it again.
* AndStarring: Credited this way in the guest-stars lineup.
* BadassGrandpa: Age hasn't taken away his heroic drive or his powers.
* BadassInDistress: He spends most of Season Two as Zoom's prisoner and trophy, despite being a superhero himself. Granted, Zoom had an unfair advantage due to the Velocity drug making him faster.
* BeardOfSorrow: His DramaticUnmask shows him with a full beard, a testament that he has suffered in Zoom's hand for quite some time.
* CelebrityParadox: An episode of ''Series/{{Arrow}}'' Season 2 mentions ''Series/FantasyIsland''. His actor guest-starred there.
* ChekhovsGunman: Subverted. The way he was introduced you would expect him to be important to the future but aside from being origin of Hunter's fake name (which we've long since knew that was a fake) he didn't add anything to the plot and dissapeared shortly after being introduced.
* CompositeCharacter: He's a combination of the comics' Jay Garrick and an AlternateUniverse version of Barry's father, Henry Allen.
* CoolHat: At the end of Season Two, he keeps Zolomon's Mercury helmet, resolving to make it a true symbol of hope rather than a false one.
* CoolOldGuy: By the time we meet him, he's old enough to be Barry's dad, and actually was in Barry's universe.
* DespairEventHorizon: It was clear that he was losing hope the longer he stayed in Zoom's lair. He even broke down when Barry and Jesse failed to get his message.
* DistressedDude: He was already Zoom's prisoner by the time Jesse was abducted.
* DramaticUnmask: When his mask is removed in the Season Two finale, he's revealed to be an AlternateUniverse {{Doppelganger}} of Henry Allen.
* {{Doppelganger}}: He looks exactly like Henry Allen, being his equivalent from an AlternateUniverse.
* EveryoneKnowsMorse: He kept spelling out his first name using a POW tap code, implying that he might be a war veteran.
* HeroicBuild: In contrast with the other speedsters who tend to be leaner, this Flash packed a ''considerable'' amount of muscle in his youth. By the time we meet him, he's a bit paunchier.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: He's the Flash of an alternate Earth.
* IconicSequelCharacter: Does not appear in the series until Season 2.
* {{Irony}}: Much like Henry, he was imprisoned because of an evil speedster. For added irony, both were jailed in something called "Iron" (''Iron'' Heights for Henry, ''Iron'' Mask for Jay).
* LanternJawOfJustice: Compared to Barry's, his jaw is really wide.
* ManInTheIronMask: When we first saw him, his mask concealed his face entirely, even preventing him from speaking. Zoom did not want him communicating with the other prisoners, either.
* OneSteveLimit: Played with. He's a {{Doppelganger}} of Earth-1 Henry Allen, but for various reasons was named Jay Garrick in his universe.
* RedBaron: "The Crimson Comet".
* RedIsHeroic: His suit is a much brighter, deeper red than Barry's own current suit, and has bright red boots and much brighter blue pants compared to the Earth-2 Flash suit.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: As he is Henry's Earth-3 counterpart, he is related to Barry from a certain point of view.
* RemakeCameo: John Wesley Shipp played the original live-action Barry Allen in ''Series/TheFlash1990''. Now he's playing the original Flash from the comic books, Jay Garrick.
* SuperSpeed: Naturally, since he's a Flash.
* TragicKeepsake: Played with. At the end of Season Two, he takes Hunter's helmet as a KickTheSonOfABitch for stealing so much from him. Jay vows to turn the helmet into the symbol of hope it was meant to be, rather than the cruel joke Hunter used it as.
* TrappedInAnotherWorld: He was taken from his Earth to Earth-2 by Zoom as his personal prisoner and stayed there for quite a time. After he's freed, he returns to Earth-2 so Harry and Jesse could help him get home to his own Earth.
* WalkingSpoiler: Revealing his backstory gives away some rather large spoilers about Zoom's own identity and motivations.

[[folder:Unidentified Flash]]
!![[Series/TheFlash1990 Unidentified Flash]]
->'''Played By:''' Creator/JohnWesleyShipp

The Flash of an alternate Earth. He is briefly glimpsed when Barry travels between universes.

* AlternateSelf: A very interesting example. He has Barry's name and background, but physically he looks exactly like Barry's father Henry.
* AlternateTimeline: This Barry is closer in age to the Tina [=McGee=] and James Jesse of his Earth. On Earth-1, both are old enough to be the parents of its incarnation of Barry.
* CanonWelding: He's [[Characters/TheFlash1990 Barry Allen from the 1990s show,]] though our Barry doesn't know that (yet).
* {{Doppelganger}}: He looks exactly like Henry Allen.
* HeroicBuild: In contrast with the other speedsters who tend to be leaner, this Flash packs a ''considerable'' amount of muscle.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: He's the Flash of an alternate Earth, who had [[Series/TheFlash1990 his own show]] to boot.
* LanternJawOfJustice: Compared to Barry's, his jaw is really wide.
* RedIsHeroic: His suit is a much brighter, deeper red than Barry's own current suit.
* RemakeCameo: A literal example, since a still from the 1990s show is glimpsed by Barry when he's traveling to Earth-2. (His chest lightning orientation is the same as the Reverse-Flash's unlike in his show, but this is likely a goof due to the still being flipped).
* SmallRoleBigImpact: Only appeared in a very brief glimpse, but his presence indicates that the two Flash shows take place in {{Alternate Universe}}s relative to each other under one {{Multiverse}}.
* SuperSpeed: Naturally, since he's a Flash.

* *He's ''so'' AxCrazy that he thinks nothing of creating and killing copies of himself just to {{Troll}} Barry. And his copies ''agree'' to being murdered just for that.

** Barry manages to lure him out in "Enter Zoom". Unfortunately for Barry, Zoom sees the ambush coming.
** In "Running to Stand Still", he reveals he doesn't want to kill Barry just yet -- he wants him to get faster so he can steal more Speed Force.

* ArrogantKungFuGuy: He knows he's a literal LightningBruiser and knows it. As a result, he looks down on everyone. Him being AxCrazy just makes things worse.

* MonsterOfTheWeek: Majority of the metahumans. The most notable exception is [[BigBad Zoom]].

* MonsterOfTheWeek: Majority of the metahumans. The most notable exceptions is [[BigBad Zoom]].

* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: Zoom sends metahuman after metahuman through the breaches to kill Barry - each one ends up dead or imprisoned. Turns out Zoom never expected or even wanted any of them to succeed. He simply wanted Barry to get faster from the challenge of fighting them, so when Zoom decides it's time to take Barry's speed there will be enough of the Speedforce to act as an antidote for the Velocity drugs Zoom has taken.

* ArtifactAlias: After TheReveal, the team continues referring to Zoom as "Jay", although Barry does call him "Zolomon" in the finale, and Caitlin backtracks when talking about Zoom to the real Jay Garrick.

* CompleteMonster: Even more so than Eobard Thawne. Whereas Thawne had methods to his madness as well as a twisted sense of morality, Zolomon had no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

* MonsterOfTheWeek: Most of them are basically Jay's RoguesGallery on Earth-2 until Zoom decides to send them for Barry and presumably also for the other speedsters in TheMultiverse.

* RoguesGallery: While most of them are simply the MonsterOfTheWeek for Barry, they've been feuding with Jay for quite a long time.

!!Hunter Zolomon / Zoom / "Jay Garrick"

* InterspeciesFriendship: Jay mentions one of his [[{{ComicBook/Aquaman}} best and closest friends]] originates from Earth-2's Atlantis. Considering [[EvilAllAlong later]] [[SerialKiller revelations]] about the character, however, it's pretty likely that this was a lie.

* MovieSuperheroesWearBlack: In the comics, Zoom's costume is essentially the same as Eobard Thawne's, just with black eye lenses. Here, it's all-black [[DarkIsEvil just to show that he's evil]]. Possibly a reference to the Black Flash and/or Black Racer, both of whom are embodiments of Death.
** This is also in effect with the suit he wears for his Jay Garrick persona. In the comics, Jay wears a bright red long-sleeved shirt with a big golden lightning bolt on it, as well as bright blue pants and red boots, the latter sometimes sporting golden Mercury wings. Here, "Jay" wears a dark maroon jacket with merely a golden outline of the lightning bolt, his pants are dark blue, his boots are dark brown with no wings, and he even wears dark brown gloves.

* CompositeCharacter: He's a combonation of the comics Jay Garrick and an AlternateUniverse version of Barry's father, Henry Allen.

* CompositeCharacter: He is the Earth-3 counterpart of Henry Allen, Barry's father.

* OutsideContextVillain: He's from another universe. Even on Earth-2, no one, with the possible exception of Wells, has any idea who Zoom is, although he makes sure that they're all afraid of him.

* HateSink: As Season Two goes on, he proves himself even more depraved than Eobard Thawne with absolutely no PetTheDog moments. To wit, he stole the identity of Jay Garrick just so he could give people hope then take it away, steals Barry's speed, kidnaps Caitlin in order to invoke Stockholm Syndrome so she'll love him, begins a ReignOfTerror over Earth-1's Central City just because he can and murders an entire S.W.A.T. Team, kills Barry's dad in front of him and ultimately tries to [[OmnicidalManiac destroy the entire multiverse]] just so Earth-1 will be his sole domain. And he has no real reason for doing ''any'' of this save ForTheEvulz.
** He also [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking takes performance-enhancing drugs]] to gain an unfair advantage over his enemies. AndThatsTerrible.

* InterspeciesFriendship: Jay mentions one of his [[{{ComicBook/Aquaman}} best and closest friends]] originates from Earth-2's Atlantis.
** Considering [[EvilAllAlong later]] [[SerialKiller revelations]] about the character, however, it's pretty likely that this was a lie.

* ImAHumanitarian: ARGUS agents make for good eating as far as he's concerned.

* GlassCannon: She is a very powerful metahuman capable of destroying structures who also has prowess on physical combat. Despite these skills, she is prone to attacks which is not helped by (or probably because of) her fondness for EvilGloating.

* AlternateSelf: A very interesting example. He is Barry's counterpart, but physically he looks exactly like Barry's father Henry.
