Earth-2 (Pre-Crisis)

General Tropes

Adaptational Villainy: Quite a few of Earth-2's residents are Evil Counterparts 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.
Adaptation Name Change: More of Adaptation Name Swap. Given how many of Earth-2's residents are Evil Counterparts 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, being bright and colorful.
Alternate History:
- In "Flash Of Two Worlds", Hunter Zolomon mentions how his father fought in "The War of the Americas". Jesse spends most of her time watching Casablanca with Wally under the impression it's about this war, implying it was their equivalent of World War II.
- Nora Allen is still alive during Barry's adulthood.
- Ronnie becomes the dominant pair in the Firestrom matrix and essentially 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, Henry Hewitt, technically ^note Shay Lamden). Earth-1 Caitlin is revealed to be a metahuman after Barry's Cosmic Retcon, though whether or not she had them before is ambiguous.
- 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. After he is arrested, Adrian Chase becomes the Hood.
- 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's phone contacts.
- Caitlin Snow has a brother, though he dies offscreen. For that matter, she flunks med school.
- Harrison Wells has a daughter, Jesse. His wife is also long dead by the time of the Particle Accelerator explosion.
- Thea Queen was born nine months earlier than in Earth-1. She also died of drug overdose when she was 18, heavily implied because of her depression over Oliver's death.
- Malcolm Merlyn is not a corrupt businessman and never became Dark Arrow. It is his son, Tommy, who did.
- Quentin Lance died many years ago, when his children were still teenagers. Also, Sara didn't board the Queen's Gambit and is a mother.
- Televisions are oriented portrait-style.
Alternate Self: Many characters have counterparts on other Earths. Specifically, this universe shares the most characters (posthumous or otherwise) with Earths 1 and X.

- This universe shares a Thea Queen with Earths 1 and 16, though Earth-167 has someone with the surname Dearden take on the mantle of Speedy.

Alternate Universe: The first of many.
Ambiguous Situation: After the Crisis, it is currently unknown how many of Earth-2’s inhabitants still exist (or are still similar to their pre-Crisis selves) following the rearrangement of the multiverse creating a new superhero history on that world.
Apocalypse Wow: Earth-2 is the first casualty of the Crisis as shown in Arrow's Season 8 premiere, where it gets disintegrated by an antimatter wave.
Art Deco: Everything (architecture, interior and graphic designs, fashion) in this Earth looks like a futuristic early-mid 20th century.
Atlantis: Not only is it real, but it was never lost. Zoom mentions he has a friend there, presumably Aquaman.
Back for the Dead: After years of being unseen, Earth-2 makes a return in Arrow's season 8 premiere as the first casualty of the Crisis.
Bus Crash: The Wellses family have been absent for a while when Earth-2 gets destroyed. Barry learns the universe's destruction and assumes that they don't make it.
Color Wash: Every scene taking place on Earth-2 while daytime has a golden tint to it, to easily distinguish it from Earth-1. This is subverted in the Starling City side featured in the Arrow Season 8 premiere where it's pretty much an indistinguishable carbon copy with subtle differences, even though a flash back to Laurel's backstory shown in the previous season shows a gray tint in night time.
Composite Character:
- 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, since "Jay Garrick" as The Flash and Robert Queen as The Arrow are the only acknowledged heroes, and the former is a fraud anyway. Just like Earth-3 it also ends up being the first casualty of the Crisis.
- It also integrates elements from the FlashPoint timeline, such as the Green Arrow being Robert Queen instead of Oliver, which is inspired by Thomas Wayne being Batman.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: Several, both introduced with one or ultimately became one themselves.
- This world's Oliver Queen, Adam Fells, Quentin Lance and Thea Queen are already posthumous characters when their counterparts from Earths 1 and X were introduced, while this world's Joe West, Francisco Ramon, Caitlin Snow, Martin Stein (somehow), Clay Parker, Dante Ramon were all ultimately killed shortly or just a few episodes after their respective introductions.
- Inversions are the Earth-2 versions of Harrison Wells (introduced with a dead Earth-1 counterpart, then eventually also a dead Earth-19 counterpart), Robert Queen (indirectly introduced with a dead Earth-1 counterpart), Dinah Laurel Lance (introduced with a dead Earth-1 counterpart), Ronnie Raymond (introduced with a dead Earth-1 counterpart), Shay Lamden (introduced with a dead Earth-1 counterpart), Al Rothstein (killed his own Earth-1 counterpart), Floyd Lawton (introduced with a dead Earth-1 counterpart), Nora Allen (introduced with a dead Earth-1 counterpart), Henry Allen (eventually has a dead Earth-1 counterpart), Damien Darhk (whose Earth-1 counterpart has already died twice whereas his fate remains unknown), Moira Queen (introduced with a dead Earth-1 counterpart), Malcolm Merlyn (introduced with a dead Earth-1 counterpart) and Tommy Merlyn (introduced with dead Earths 1 and X counterparts).
- Sara Lance and Cisco Ramon are interesting cases. Their main Earth-1 counterparts have been killed twice by the end of 2015 before getting resurrected both times in the same year (Cisco's first via Barry's first Cosmic Retcon, Sara's first via Lazarus Pit, both's second via Barry's second Cosmic Retcon) while Sara and Cisco's respective Earths X and 22 counterparts are posthumous characters by early 2018.
- The Anti-Monitor destroys Earth-2 in the Season 8 premiere of Arrow. Except for Laurel, nobody survives the destruction and eventual reconstruction of the multiverse.
Demoted to Extra: Earth-2 is the very first Alternate Universe introduced when the Arrowverse debuted the concept of The Multiverse. Then Supergirl premiered not long after and was eventually made part of The Multiverse as Earth-38, followed shortly by The Flash (later designated Earth-90) also being integrated, all before Earth-2 even made a proper appearance. Then the fourth annual Crossover, Crisis on Earth-X, introduces the titular Alternate Universe which became the setting of Freedom Fighters: The Ray. Over time, Earth-2 is only ever touched upon again when characters (specifically Team Flash) visit or Harry Wells, Jesse Quick and Black Siren talk about their respective lives. The universe is also the first casualty of the Crisis. After the Crisis, however, this trope is finally averted, as it becomes the setting for Stargirl.
Diesel Punk: This Earth's Central City seems to be built around this aesthetic, specifically the Decopunk variation.
Epic Fail: Hunter Zolomon was able to fool the entirety of Earth-2 with his superhero alias, despite being a well-known criminal with his face all over the media without even wearing a mask. How? By cutting his hair and not regrowing his beard.
Everybody's Dead, Dave: The Anti-Monitor destroys Earth-2 in the Season 8 premiere of Arrow, leaving Dinah Laurel Lance, Shay Lamden, and Linda Park as the only survivors, as Laurel is taken by Earth-1 Oliver and Diggle back to their universe while Shay and Linda have been taking refuge there since 2015. The Earth-2 that appeared is a different Earth altogether, while elements from this Earth were sent to Earth-Prime.
Evil Doppelgänger: Most of the characters here are Evil Counterparts to their Earth-1 counterparts, as was the case with Al Rothstein, Linda Park, Cap. Singh, Caitlin Snow, Ronnie Raymond, Cisco and Dante Ramon, and Laurel Lance (at least at first), while Felicity Smoak is said to be ruthless. The Harrison Wells of this Earth is more Anti Heroic than his (real) counterpart than outright evil, though.
Evil Me Scares Me: The Earth-1 versions of Linda Park, Caitlin Snow, and Cisco Ramon are pretty unsettled to discover criminal versions of themselves from an Alternate Universe.
Expendable Alternate Universe:
- Deconstructed in that Zoom's army have this view towards the Earth-1 universe, which makes them remorseless about killing the Flash, and even their alternate selves, to get home.
- And 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.
- Earth-2 is the first casualty of the Crisis.
Foil: Most characters from this world tend to be Shadow Archetypes, if not an outright Evil Doppelgänger, to their respective Earth-1 counterparts, as well as the other way around.
Hero of Another Story: Earth-2 is the fifth most developed part of The Multiverse within the Arrowverse after Earths 1, 38, 90, and X. This universe also produced four major characters (Harry Wells, Dinah Laurel Lance, Jesse Quick and Hunter Zolomon / Black Flash), one recurring (Shay Lamden), and a number of characters with potential to be either one (Linda Park, Solovar, Barry Allen, Iris West-Allen, Floyd Lawton, etc.) despite not having a show set on it like the four universes mentioned.
In-Series Nickname: To avoid the One-Steve Limit below. For instance, the Harrison Wells from this world is called Harry by the characters from Earth-1.
In Spite of a Nail:
- 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.
- Harrison Wells's 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 Great Detective 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 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 moniker "Deadshot" because of it.
- Despite the absence of Leonard Snart and Mick Rory (the former is even implied to be the City Mayor), an Evil Duo using ice and fire are still terrorizing Central City.
- A parental figure of Barry still dies. For the matter, one of Iris's 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 Missing Mom 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, at least for a while.
- Barring the Cosmic Retcon, Cisco is still killed by the evil speedster. In the exact same manner, no less.
- Harrison Wells's 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 kno).
- Caitlin Snow was still raised by an Evil Matriarch, and their fallout is caused by the death of a male family member.
- An evil speedster ends up impersonating someone outside of their own world. On Earth-1, Eobard Thawne came from the future and ended up 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.
- A supervillain named the Mirror Master exists.
- Oliver Queen and Dinah Laurel Lance still became a couple, and one of them still ended up dying.
- Damien Darhk is still a notorious criminal.
- Quentin Lance still ended up dying.
Killed Offscreen: When Earth-2 is destroyed, only Moira Queen, Tommy Merlyn, Dinah Drake and Rene Ramirez are shown disintegrating.
Left-Handed Mirror: A case of Informed Ability. Black Siren mentions that all doppelgangers are this, but herself, Killer Frost, and Reverb are all cross-dominants than outright southpaws.
Mass Super-Empowering Event: The metahumans got their powers from Earth-2 Dr. Wells's 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 Zoom, who only mentions his own Freak Lab Accident). Despite that, presuming he didn't gather them from across the world, Zoom has an army of metahumans at his disposal.
Merged Reality: Elements of the universe are transferred to Earth-Prime after the Crisis, specifically Atlantis and Gorilla City. Zoom and his cronies (save for Dinah Laurel Lance and possibly Shay Lamden) have also become Earth-1 natives.
Mirror Universe: 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 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 Evil Counterpart to the Justice League) complete with counterparts to Linda (Dr. Light), Caitlin (Killer Frost), Ronnie (Deathstorm), Cisco (Reverb), and Laurel (Black Siren).
Monster of the Week: Majority of the metahumans during The Flash Season 2. The most notable exceptions are Zoom and Killer Frost.
One-Steve Limit: They share the names of their Earth-1 counterparts.
Ret-Gone: Destroyed during the Crisis and never reconstituted again. The only known survivors of the carnage are Dinah Laurel Lance and Shay Lamden. Its designation is given to the setting of Stargirl.
Retro Universe: This world uses both modern-day and futuristic apps, but everyone's clothing are ranges from the 1920s up to the 1950s. However, the outfits of Zoom's gang suggest that it's only Central City who chooses to live with this aesthetic, which the final season of Arrow more or less confirms.
Rogues' Gallery Transplant: Some of them aren't/weren't enemies of The Flash in canon.
Sacrificial Lion: Earth-2 was the most heavily focused Earth outside of Earth-38, with a great deal of time spent there and by far the most number of characters introduced. It also ends up as the first casualty of the Crisis when it returns in Arrow Season 8.
Schizo Tech: Central City in particular has the fashion and aesthetics of the early-mid 20th century. But make no mistake, they are very technologically advanced.
Sharp-Dressed Man: Majority of the males are dressed in a suit.
Supervillain Lair: Zoom's is located on a mountain past a forest.
Uniqueness Decay: Back then, the existence of another Earth was a huge deal in the Arrowverse. Nowadays, there are dozens of them, and new ones keep constantly popping up.
Walking Spoiler: Their entire existence if you haven't seen Season 1 of The Flash. Also it's destruction if you haven't seen the Arrow final season premiere.
With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: Most of the meta-humans went Ax-Crazy with their powers, causing chaos and destruction.
You Can't Go Home Again: Laurel, Shay, and Linda have this when Earth-2 gets destroyed by the Anti-Monitor. Though it comes back after the Crisis, it's unknown if it is the same Earth-2 as before.
Zeerust: Deliberately invoked. Although the year is the same as on "our" Earth, the buildings and vehicles are Art Deco 1920s/1930s in appearance, most of the civilian fashions (especially women) look to be from the 1940s/1950s, and Hunter Zolomon's "Jay Garrick" costume looks like a 1930s/1940s pulp adventurer's outfit 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 World War II. These trend seems to be a Central City thing, however, as notorious criminals such as Deathstorm, Killer Frost and Reverb as well as the entire Starling City residents are shown with modern clothing.

Zoom's Group

Hunter Zolomon / Zoom

See the Arrowverse: Hunter Zolomon page

Al Rothstein / Atom Smasher

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/al_rothstein_earth_2.png

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/atom_smasher.png

Species: Metahuman

Known Alias: Atom Smasher

Played By:Creator/Adam Copeland

First Appearance: "The Man Who Saved Central City" (The Flash 2x1)

Appearances: The Flash

A metahuman who has the ability to absorb atomic radiation, resulting in super strength and durability and the ability to radically change size.

See Arrowverse: Central City - Citizens page for his Earth-1 counterpart.

See DCEU: Other Superheroes page for the character in an undesignated Earth who bears his name and background

Adaptational Villainy: Normally portrayed as a hero and member of the Justice Society of America.
And Starring: Gets this billing in the guest stars lineup.
Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever: He can grow himself to be as tall as a building if he wants to.
The Brute: He's quite tall (6'4), very muscular (played by a decorated wrestler to boot), has powers to increase his size, and always goes for the offensive.
Celebrity Paradox: The Highlander franchise was acknowledged by Cisco to exist in the Arrowverse. His actor appeared as a Mook in Highlander: Endgame.
Chekhov's Gunman: Eobard Thawne mentioned him in Season 1 as one of the casualties of the Particle Accelerator explosion. However, in Season 2, he's said to have been away on his honeymoon when it happened, so they believe he couldn't have become a metahuman.
Cool Mask: Much like his comic counterpart.
Death by Adaptation: His comic counterpart is still alive and a member of the Justice League. This version didn't live long enough to reform.
Evil Doppelgänger: Killed his Earth-1 counterpart for no valid reason, as he's not even attempting to Kill and Replace him.
Evil Sounds Deep: To the point where he sounds like he's growling at Barry.
Killing Your Alternate Self: Murders his Earth-1 counterpart for no reason.
There's No Place Like Home: The only reason he tried to kill Barry is because Zoom said he would bring him back to his world if he did.
Not Quite Dead: 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.
Shout-Out: His first physical appearance, wearing a dark mask and black trench coat, is very reminiscent of Bane from The Dark Knight Rises.
Sizeshifter: Can grow in size by absorbing radiation.
Sleeves Are for Wimps: Much like his comic counterpart, he wears a sleeveless costume.
Starter Villain: He's the very first Monster of the Week for Season 2.
Super-Strength: Even at his normal size, he's extraordinarily strong.

Eddie Slick / Sand Demon

Species: Metahuman

Known Alias: Sand Demon

Played By: Kett Turton

First Appearance: "Flash of Two Worlds" (The Flash 2x2)

Appearances: The Flash

A metahuman able to transform his cells into a sand-like substance.

See Arrowverse: Central City - Independent Criminals page for his Earth-1 counterpart.

Alternate Company Equivalent: Pretty much DC's version of Sandman.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: To his Dirty Coward Earth-1 counterpart, who doesn't seem to care.
Death by Adaptation: Barry kills him with his lightning attack.
Elemental Shapeshifter: Can dissolve and reform into sand at will, and use his power for offense and defense.
Evil Doppelgänger: 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 Dirty Coward.
Literally Shattered Lives: After Barry turns him into glass, he falls back shattering into pieces.
One-Steve Limit: Averted. He shares his first name with Eddie Thawne of Season 1.
Red Herring: 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.
Rogues' Gallery Transplant: In the comicbooks, he's a Firestorm villain.
Sand Blaster: He can literally turn into sand or something resembling it.
Taken for Granite: He's turned into glass by Flash's lightning strike.

Shay Lamden / King Shark

See Arrowverse: A.R.G.U.S. & Task Force X page

Linda Park / Doctor Light

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/linda_park_earth_2.png

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dr_light_5.png

Species: Metahuman

Known Aliases: Dr. Light

Played By: Malese Jow

First Appearance: "The Darkness and the Light" (The Flash 2x5)

Appearances: The Flash

A metahuman that can draw power from starlight. She is the Earth-2 counterpart of Linda Park.

see the Arrowverse: Central City - Citizens page for Earth-1 Linda

see the Titans (2018): Villains page for info on Arthur Light, the Earth-9 character who bears her codename

see the The Flash (1990) page for more info on the Earth-90 character who bears her name

Adaptational Early Appearance: The female Dr. Light debuted in Crisis on Infinite Earths. This version debuted three years before the Arrowverse adaptation of the event. Complicating matters further, Kimiyo Hoshi herself shows up as Doctor Light after the Crisis.
Adaptational Nationality: As a result of being a Composite Character, she's now of Korean descent instead of Japanese.
Adaptational Villainy: She is, though an Anti-Villain who does not kill, still a criminal. There are two Doctors Light in the comics, and the one this version is based on is a hero.
Aloof Dark-Haired Girl: She's quite rigid.
Anti-Villain: 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.
Badass in Distress: She was briefly imprisoned on S.T.A.R. Labs on Earth-1 until she escapes Team Flash.
Badass Longcoat: She has a labcoat styled one as part of her costume. During her climatic fight with Barry, she wears a more traditional one.
Beauty Is Bad: Is the Earth-2 doppelgänger of Linda Park, a girl who was lovely enough to divert Barry's attentions from Iris for a little while.
Bus Crash: While she avoided the destruction of Earth-2 due to not being there, she did not survive the destruction of the multiverse.
Composite Character: 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. And then, the Kimiyo Hoshi herself shows up as Doctor Light in Season 6.
Cool Helmet: Part of her costume. Removing it makes a Dramatic Unmask for The Reveal she's Linda Park's Alternate Self, the first for any prominent Arrowverse character.
Dark Action Girl: Zig-Zagged. She doesn't hesitate to cause chaos, but she usually has a strong Thou Shall Not Kill code.
Even Evil Has Standards: She's only a thief who had never killed anyone before Zoom got to her, and is horrified when she does it accidentally.
Everybody's Dead, Dave: With Earth-2 destroyed by the Anti-Monitor, she becomes one of its few survivors along with Dinah Laurel Lance / Black Canary and Shay Lamden / King Shark.
Evil Doppelgänger: Downplayed. She's more of a desperate Anti-Villain than outright evil and views her attempted Kill and Replace of Earth-1 Linda as a Shoot the Dog.
Glass Cannon: Her stats are slightly higher than 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 Hard Light causes more damage to her targets. She can also create blinding lights for defensive purposes, and is more durable than her ^note physically.
Godzilla Threshold: 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 Kill and Replace Earth-1's Linda to get away from Zoom.
Hard Light: Her powers allow her to create hard light and laser constructs.
I Just Want to Be Free: The chaos she causes on Earth-1 and her Kill and Replace attempt on her counterpart are fueled by her desperation to escape from Zoom's clutches.
Invisibility: She can do it with light.
Invisible Streaker: 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.
Ironic Name: For a woman named "Light", her power causes (temporary) blindness.
Kill and Replace: Attempts this on her Earth-1 counterpart in order to try and hide from Zoom.
Killing Your Alternate Self: Attempted (see above), but was luckily stopped before she could succeed.
Lifesaving Misfortune: Zoom bringing her out from her hometown and her inability to come back to Earth-2 ends up saving her life when Earth-2 gets disintegrated by antimatter. Unfortunately, she was most likely killed anyway during the Anti-Monitor Crisis, thus subverting this trope.
Light 'em Up: She draws power from starlight. She can create blinding flashes and make lasers strong enough to cut through bank walls.
Light Is Not Good: Literally. Though she's more of a desperate Anti-Villain than outright evil.
Meaningful Name: Aside from her obvious light-based powers, she is the Token Good Teammate of Zoom and his associates.
My God, What Have I Done?: She's clearly horrified when she accidentally kills a man.
Noble Demon: She's a thief but she does not kill her victims, and is visibly upset over her Accidental Murder of her Earth-1 counterpart's boss.
Power Palms: 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.
Rogues' Gallery Transplant: The Doctor Light that she is based on is a hero, but the original villainous Doctor Light is a Teen Titans villain.
Screw This, I'm Out of Here!: 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.
Shoot the Dog: How she views her Kill and Replace attempt on her Earth-1 counterpart, as she views it necessary to escape from Zoom's clutches.
Thou Shall Not Kill: She personally wants to avoid killing. Unfortunately, Zoom's threat is so bad that it pushes her to consider to Kill and Replace her Earth-1 counterpart just to escape his clutches.
Token Good Teammate: The most moral of Zoom and his associates.
Trapped in Another World: Is taking refuge at Earth-1 after being defeated by Barry. Due to this, she dodged a bullet.
Uncertain Doom: Her current status is unknown after the merging of most Earths and the creation of the new multiverse.
What Happened to the Mouse?: 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.
You Can't Go Home Again: Earth-2 was destroyed by the Anti-Monitor while she's taking refuge in Earth-1.

Adam Fells / Geomancer

Species: Metahuman

Known Aliases: Geomancer

A metahuman with the ability to create earthquakes.

see the Arrowverse: Metahumans page for Earth-1 Fells

Dead Alternate Counterpart: For his Earth-1 counterpart who is more or less like him.
Dishing Out Dirt: His power is to create earthquakes.
In Spite of a Nail: According to Hunter Zolomon (in his "Jay Garrick" persona), he was exactly like his Earth-1 counterpart.
Posthumous Character: Is long dead by the start of the series.

Caitlin Snow / Killer Frost

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/killer_frost_1.png

"It's so much more fun being bad."

Species: Metahuman

Known Aliases: Killer Frost

First Appearance: "Welcome to Earth-2" (The Flash 2x13)

Appearances: The Flash

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.

see the Arrowverse: Caitlin Snow & (Killer) Frost page for Earth-1 Caitlin and Killer Frost

Adaptational Attractiveness: 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.
Adaptational Modesty: All versions of Killer Frost has Fanservice Costumes, specifically a combo of either a Leotard of Power or a Sensual Spandex, sometimes accompanied by a Navel-Deep Neckline. This version wears Civvie Spandex consisting of a leather jacket, corset, and leather pants.
Adaptational Wimp: Is injured by a wayward blast from Deathstorm, while in the comics she can absorb heat.
Adaptational Villainy: While her Earth-1 counterpart was a case of Adaptational Heroism, this version who is the true Killer Frost is much less sympathetic than her comic book counterpart. In the comics, Killer Frost was a heat vampire, who was driven to villainy by her powers, and was seeking a cure for her condition. In the show she kills and terrorizes civilians for the fun of it, though granted she is under the command of Zoom who would kill her should she disobey.
Alliterative Family: Caitlin, Carla, and Charlie.
Asshole Victim: 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.
Astonishingly Appropriate Appearance: A woman with white hair, very pale skin and ice powers named Caitlin Snow aka Killer Frost.
Avenging the Villain: Rebels against Zoom in order to avenge her dead husband Deathstorm.
Ax-Crazy: Well, she is called Killer Frost.
Back for the Dead: After her Uncertain Doom at the end of "Escape from Earth-2" it's revealed that she was held prisoner by Zoom only to be iced by him in "Back to Normal" when she tries to murder Caitlin.
Battle Couple: She and Deathstorm usually fight together.
Beauty Is Bad: A beautiful girl whose heart is as cold as her powers.
Celebrity Paradox:
- Cisco is seen wearing a Jason Voorhees T-shirt during the middle of The Flash Season 4. Her actress famously played the Decoy Protagonist in the 2009 remake.
- A Villain of the Week in Season 2 mentions the Law & Order franchise. Her actress guest starred on Law & Order: SVU twice as two different characters.
Chekhov's Gunman: Her appearance was alluded to in the Flash Season 1 finale, and her encounter with her Earth-1 counterpart ultimately serves as a cautionary tale of sorts for the latter when she started to develop the exact same powers.
Chewing the Scenery: Danielle Panabaker portrays her in glorious Cold Ham fashion (possibly with no Puns intended, unlike Captain Cold).
Civvie Spandex: She wears a dark blue leather jacket, corset, and leather pants.
Cold Ham: Excusing the pun, she speaks in a very "theatrical subdued" manner.
Combat Medic: 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.
Combat Stilettos: She is sporting mid-heeled boots in combat.
Composite Character: 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.
Crusading Widow: Despite being scared of him, she resents Zolomon for killing Ronnie.
Cynicism Catalyst: Her dead little brother, who apparently caused her to become cold, as well as her mother.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: Ultimately to Caitlin, with the irony that she died while trying to kill her.
Decomposite Character: In the comics, she is the supervillain that Caitlin will become. This version is confirmed to be an Alternate Self of the main one who was given Adaptational Heroism.
Early-Bird Cameo: Barry catches a brief glimpse of her as he runs through the Speed Force in the Season 1 finale.
Even Evil Has Loved Ones: She and Deathstorm genuinely love each other. She's devastated when Zoom kills him.
Even Evil Has Standards: She helps Wells get his daughter Jesse back after finding out about Zoom's torture dungeon.
Evil Brunette Twin: Inverted. Earth-1 Caitlin is brunette, while Killer Frost is White Hair, Black Heart personified.
Evil Doppelgänger: For Caitlin, and the first introduced for any Arrowverse main character. Also to Killer Frost, as this version of her never reformed.
Evil Feels Good:
Frost: It's so much more fun to be bad.
Evil Is Deathly Cold: An ice-based supervillain.
Evil Is Hammy: Danielle Panabaker is Chewing the Scenery with Cold Ham.
Faux Affably Evil: She exhibits a playful demeanor around her victims. She's perfectly happy to kill them regardless.
Foreshadowing: The story of her transformation to Killer Frost is essentially her Earth-1 counterpart's Story Arc for the following season.
Fire/Ice Duo: Played straight with Deathstorm. They're metahumans with powers of fire and ice, with the two of them being Happily Married as supervillains.
Fragile Speedster: 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.
Happily Married: She and Deathstorm, despite being murderous villains, seem very happy together.
Hazy-Feel Turn: 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.
Hell-Bent for Leather: She's wearing an overall leather outfit.
Hoist by Her Own Petard: Zoom kills her using her own icicle.
An Ice Person: She has ice based powers.
Iconic Sequel Character: Does not appear in the Arrowverse until its fourth year during The Flash Season 2.
Icy Blue Eyes: Unlike Caitlin's brown eyes, Killer Frost has light blue eyes that reflect her cold personality and ice powers.
Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Zoom stabs her with her own ice shard.
In Spite of a Nail: She ended up a widow like her Earth-1 counterpart. Also, both her and her mother's fallout were caused by the death of a male family member.
Jerk with a Heart of Jerk: Bet you thought that the Ice Queen was starting to warm up after she helped Team Flash out. She loses all sympathy when she attempts to kill Caitlin For the Evulz.
Karmic Death: She's stabbed by one of her own ice shards that she shot at Caitlin.
Killing Your Alternate Self: Attempted, but it quickly leads to her Karmic Death above.
Kill It with Ice: She fights using her ice based powers.
Meaningful Name: A woman named Snow with ice powers.
Mystical White Hair: She has white hair and has ice powers.
Names to Run Away from Really Fast: Seriously, Killer Frost.
"Not So Different" Remark: Cisco tries to play her similarities with her Earth-1 counterpart so she can lead them to Zoom. She complied for her own reasons.
Of Corsets Sexy: She's wearing a blue corset under her leather jacket.
Only Sane Woman: 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.
Other Me Annoys Me: She thinks her Earth-1 counterpart is a boring prude.
Outlaw Couple: Word of God describes her and Deathstorm as "the Metahuman Bonnie and Clyde".
Painful Transformation: She tells her Earth-1 counterpart that she felt unbearable cold before her hair turns white the first time she became Killer Frost.
Present Absence: Despite her death and brief encounter with her Earth-1 counterpart, their meeting is enough for the latter to fear for her own sanity when she starts displaying the same powers.
Related in the Adaptation: 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 Foe Romance Subtext.
Replacement Goldfish: 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.
Rogues' Gallery Transplant: Killer Frost is typically a Firestorm villain, while here she's Happily Married to a version of Firestorm and faces off against the Flash.
Small Role, Big Impact: She only appears for three episodes, but she leaves a major impact as she foreshadowed what Earth-1's Caitlin became.
Split-Personality Takeover: It's implied that, instead of wanting to mutually live with Caitlin, this version of Frost both yearned for and attained full control, which in turn makes her a Distaff Counterpart to her husband.
That Man Is Dead: Implied as she hates being referred to by her birth name.
Tragic Drop Out: She flunked out of Medical School, in contrast to her Earth-1 Counterpart.
Uncertain Doom: The last time we see her she's holding back Zoom to buy Team Flash time to escape. However, we see that Zoom eventually got past her. "Back To Normal" reveals that Zoom spared her, not that it lasts.
Ungrateful Bastard: Attempts to kill Caitlin immediately after they help her escape.
Unholy Matrimony: With Ronnie/Deathstorm.
Villainous Fashion Sense: She's a supervillain dressed in an elegant Decopunk clothing.
Voice of the Legion: Her voice has a habit of echoing noticeably, though it's not consistent.
White Hair, Black Heart: She has white hair and is evil.
Wolverine Publicity: She's the most used character in promoting the episodes regarding Barry travelling to Earth-2.

Ronnie Raymond / Deathstorm

Ronald "Ronnie" Raymond / Deathstorm

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/deathstorm_5.png

Species: Metahuman ^noteComposed of two individuals

Known Alias: Deathstorm

First Appearance: "Welcome to Earth-2" (The Flash 2x13)

Appearances: The Flash

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 (apparently) late Ronnie Raymond.

see the Arrowverse: Firestorm page for Earth-1 Ronnie and Firestorm

Adaptational Attractiveness: In the comics, Deathstorm has a skull face with Flaming Hair ala Ghost Rider. This version retains the Tall, Dark, and Handsome appearance of his actor.
Adaptational Villainy: In the comics, Deathstorm eventually regained his senses. This version is confirmed by Word of God as Ronnie's Evil Twin.
Adaptation Dye-Job: Deathstorm's fire powers in the comics are black and blue. Here, it's regular fire like Firestorm's.
Adaptation Species Change: Metahuman instead of undead.
Alliterative Name: Ronnie Raymond.
And Starring: Is credited with "Special Guest Star" citations.
Asshole Victim: Is offed by Zoom near the end of his debut episode. Considering 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.
Battle Couple: He and Killer Frost usually fight together.
Beauty Is Bad: A Tall, Dark, and Snarky supervillain, not to mention having fire based powers.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: Inverted and then played with. He showed up alive and well nearly a year after his Earth-1 counterpart made his Heroic Sacrifice, but then at the end of his debut episode, Earth-2 Ronnie is dead as well.
Death by Adaptation: Ironically, Deathstorm is Ronnie in the comics after he Came Back Wrong. But unlike in the comics where he regained his self, Zoom offed him here.
Decomposite Character: In the comics, Deathstorm is Ronnie after he Came Back Wrong. This version is instead confirmed to be Ronnie's Alternate Self.
Even Evil Has Loved Ones: He clearly loves Killer Frost, abandoning a fight with Barry after she is injured.
Evil Doppelgänger: For Ronnie, and the first introduced for any Arrowverse superhero (Earth-1 Caitlin has yet to gain her powers).
Evil Is Burning Hot: A fire-based supervillain.
Evil Wears Black: He's clad in a black outfit. Suffice to say, he's evil.
Fire/Ice Duo: Played straight with Killer Frost. They're metahumans with powers of fire and ice, with the two of them being Happily Married as supervillains.
Flying Firepower: Much like the Firestorms from the main universe, he can fly using his fire-based powers.
Fusion Dance: Much like the Firestorm from the main universe. Unlike them, however, this Ronnie and Martin never reconciled and one ended up trapping the other inside to the very end.
Happily Married: Surprisingly enough, he and Killer Frost are very happy together.
Hell-Bent for Leather: He's wearing an overall leather outfit.
Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Zoom skewers him with a vibrating hand for disobeying his orders.
In Name Only: Comics Deathstorm was the main universe Ronnie Raymond resurrected as an undead Black Lantern, this version is an Alternate Universe Evil Doppelgänger of the main Firestorm.
Jack of All Stats: 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 Reverb's, Rupture's or 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 In the Back).
Names to Run Away from Really Fast: Seriously, Deathstorm.
Outlaw Couple: Word of God describes him and Killer Frost as "the Metahuman Bonnie and Clyde".
Powered by a Forsaken Child: He traps Martin Stein inside of him just so he can gain full access to the Firestorm matrix's powers.
Related in the Adaptation: 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 Foe Romantic Subtext.
Split-Personality Takeover: Ronnie eventually dominates the Firestorm matrix and traps Stein in his head.
Stuffed in the Fridge: His death is what made Killer Frost to turn on Zoom.
Tall, Dark, and Handsome: Like Ronnie, he stands 5'11.
Tall, Dark, and Snarky: Think of Earth-1 Ronnie, but very abrasive and lacking every single one of the former's positive traits.
Two First Names: Much like his Earth-1 counterpart.
Unholy Matrimony: With Caitlin/Killer Frost.
Villainous Fashion Sense: He's a supervillain dressed in an elegant Diesel Punk clothing.
We Hardly Knew Ye: Zoom kills him near the end of his debut episode.

Martin Stein

Species: Metahuman

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.

see the Arrowverse: Firestorm page for Earth-1 Martin

Adaptational Heroism: Usually, the Martin Stein Deathstorm is a madman possessing a corpse; here, he is evidently a victim kept suppressed by Ronnie.
And I Must Scream: 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.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: To the main (Earth-1) Martin Stein, though it's unlikely that he knows about him. The Earth-1 Stein himself dies nearly two years later.
Despair Event Horizon: He's been trapped inside Ronnie for so long that he lost all hope. Deathstorm's death at least frees him.
Fate Worse than Death: He's locked inside the mind and body of a psychopath for years. Even after they die, he didn't even leave a corpse for his family to mourn (if he had a family at all).
The Ghost: He is present, but since Ronnie locked him away, he is never seen or heard.
No Body Left Behind: Ronnie traps him in his head. And with Deathstorm's death, he dies along with Ronnie but without leaving a corpse.
Powered by a Forsaken Child: He is essentially (and literally) just a power source for Ronnie.
Punch-Clock Villain: 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.
We Hardly Knew Ye: All we learned was that he was kept locked away in Ronnie's mind before dying.

Francisco Ramon / Reverb

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/francisco_ramon.png

"We could be gods."

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/reverb.png

Species: Metahuman

Known Alias: Reverb

Played By: Carlos Valdes

First Appearance: "Welcome to Earth-2" (The Flash 2x13)

Appearances: The Flash

A metahuman supervillain who works with Zoom who can see the "vibrations" between The Multiverse. He is the Earth-2 counterpart of Cisco Ramon.

see the Arrowverse: Team Flash for Earth-1 Cisco

See the Arrowverse: Other Earths page for Earths 19 and 22 Cisco.

See the Arrowverse: Earth-X page for Earth-X Cisco

Adaptational Villainy: Reverb is the identity of Cisco's eldest brother in the comics who becomes a superhero to honor his memory.
A God Am I: Earth-2 Cisco says that he and his counterpart could be gods with their powers.
Alliterative Family: Reverb and Rupture.
Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy: Knows full well how powerful he is. Unfortunately, Zoom is both faster (in every sense of the word) and physically stronger.
Big Bad Wannabe: Plans to take over Central City and betray Zoom. He's not on Zoom's level.
Break the Haughty: He shows off a very arrogant nature, and even suggests betraying Zoom. All that confidence disappears fast when Zoom actually shows up.
Co-Dragons: Black Siren implies that they share the position of Zoom's Dragon.
Cold Ham: Like Caitlin, he talks in a theatrically subdued manner.
Composite Character: Reverb is the identity of Cisco's (and Dante's) brother Armando in the New Earth continuity.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: Ultimately to Cisco/Vibe, but due to his nature, Cisco doesn't feel that sorry for him. This also applies to his Earths X and 19 counterparts.
Death by Adaptation: Played with. Reverb is not killed in the comics, but Cisco was.
Death by Irony: He was killed by Zoom in the exact same manner Cisco was killed by Eobard Thawne during a negated timeline in Season 1.
Decomposite Character: In the comics, he was known as the villain Rupture prior to his Heel–Face Turn. Here, Rupture is his older brother.
Dimensional Traveler: His power allows him to create portals that serves as Extra Dimensional Shortcuts to any part of The Multiverse.
The Dragon: He presumably uses his powers to monitor activities on Earth-1 for Zoom.
The Dreaded: Not to the level of Zoom, but he can scare Deathstorm and Killer Frost (two certified killers) into working for him.
Even Evil Has Loved Ones: He and his brother clearly care for each other, and he is out on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge 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.
Evil Doppelgänger: For Cisco.
Evil Sounds Deep: His voice is noticeably deeper and more resonant than Earth-1 Cisco's.
Faux Affably Evil: Almost sounds like Earth-1 Cisco at times, but threatens to kill you in the next second.
Glass Cannon: He is a very powerful metahuman but is prone to attacks.
Guyliner: Cisco mocks him for his affinity of wearing these.
Hell-Bent for Leather: He's wearing an overall leather outfit.
Mirror Match: He eventually fights Cisco.
Other Me Annoys Me: Double Subverted. Initially he seems to like his Earth-1 counterpart, even suggesting that they team-up to take out Zoom and be Multiversal Conquerors, but after the latter turns him down, Reverb immediately displays a You Have Failed Me or/and You Have Outlived Your Usefulness attitude.
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.
Siblings in Crime: With his older brother Rupture.
Sinister Shades: His Cool Shades looks more slick than Cisco's.
Sir Not-Appearing-in-This-Trailer: Unlike Killer Frost's and Deathstorm's Wolverine Publicity for the Earth-2 episodes, he didn't appear in any promotional material to keep his appearance a surprise.
Slipknot Ponytail: Dons his hairstyle like a Samurai as Cisco (mockingly) puts it.
Small Role, Big Impact: 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.
Smug Smiler: Is sporting an overconfident grin when he first met Cisco.
Smug Snake: He's extremely confident, even expressing a desire to overthrow Zoom. This falls apart in a hurry when Zoom shows up.
The Starscream : He tries to take over Zoom's operation... and then gets a vibrating hand for his troubles.
Two First Names: Per the DC Comics norm.
Villainous Fashion Sense: He's a supervillain dressed in an elegant Decopunk clothing.
We Can Rule Together: He tries to win over his Earth-1 counterpart, telling him that he can teach him the full extent of his powers.
We Hardly Knew Ye: Zoom kills him near the end of his debut episode.

Dante Ramon / Rupture

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dante_ramon_earth_2.png

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rupture_4.png

Species: Metahuman

Known Aliases: Rupture

Played By: Nicholas Gonzalez

First Appearance: "Rupture" (The Flash 2x20)

Appearances: The Flash

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.

see the Arrowverse: Central City - Citizens page for Earth-1 Dante

Adaptational Badass: In a way. His comic counterpart is mainly the Badass Normal of the Ramon brothers. Here, he has metahuman superpowers.
Adaptational Villainy: His comic counterpart ultimately reformed to be Reverb after Cisco's death. He was never able to reform because Zoom killed him.
Adaptation Species Change: Dante is usually The Team Normal of the Ramon brothers. Here, he's a metahuman.
Age Lift: In the comics, he and Cisco are around the same age. Here, he's clearly older and their actors' ages are 13 years apart.
Alas, Poor Villain: He loved his brother and only wanted to avenge him, getting killed by Zoom for his trouble.
Alliterative Family: Rupture and Reverb.
Avenging the Villain: He is out on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge for Reverb's murder.
Beauty Is Bad: It may surprise those who get a peek, that underneath that menacing mask lies a boyishly handsome face.
Composite Character: In the comics, Rupture is the villainous identity of his and Cisco's eldest brother Armando.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: To main Dante. Seeing him die is what finally triggered his reconciliation with Cisco. Unfortunately, Barry causes a Cosmic Retcon that results to main Dante's death, but that's a different story.
Decomposite Character: In the comics, he becomes Reverb after his Heel–Face Turn. Here, Reverb is his younger brother.
Even Evil Has Loved Ones: 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.
Evil Doppelgänger: For Dante.
Evil Sounds Deep: His mask has a voice modulator similar to the ones Team Arrow are using.
Killing Your Alternate Self: Rupture is introduced whilst about to quench his Roaring Rampage of Revenge for Cisco while the latter is with his brother, Rupture's very own Earth-1 counterpart. Rupture considers Dante collateral damage.
Knight Templar Big Brother: He's out for revenge over his brother's death.
Laser Blade: The blade in question is his Sinister Scythe.
Malevolent Masked Man: Much like his comic counterpart.
Mighty Glacier: He's not very mobile, but both his Sinister Scythe and the plasma energy that comes from it hits really hard.
Neck Snap: How Zoom kills him.
Plasma Cannon: His main power.
Red and Black and Evil All Over: He's wearing a mostly red outfit with black accents.
Scarf of Asskicking: His costume includes a purple scarf.
Siblings in Crime: With his younger brother Reverb.
Two First Names: Per the DC Comics norm.
You Have Failed Me: After he fails to kill Cisco, Zoom kills him, tossing in a remark about Reverb's death for an extra Kick the Dog.

Jesse "Quick" Chambers Wells

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arrowverse_jesse_chambers.png

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arrowverse_jesse_quick.png

Species: Metahuman

Known Aliases: Jesse Quick

Played By: Violett Beane

First Appearance: "The Darkness and the Light" (The Flash 2x5)

Appearances: The Flash

The daughter of Harrison Wells from Earth-2. Jesse is a teenage genius having studied five courses at once in college. Zoom keeps her hostage for the first half of Season 2. After she is rescued by Team Flash and her father, she and "Harry" Wells take refugee on Earth-1. Towards the end of Season 2, she and Wally West were hit with dark matter as a result of an experiment to recreate the events of how Barry got his powers. As such, Jesse herself becomes a speedster in Season 3.

Adaptational Backstory Change: In the comics, she's a Legacy Character and child of two Golden Age superheroes who inherited her father's Super-Speed (and later her mother's Super-Strength), who became one of Wally West's crime fighting partners and proteges during his tenure as The Flash. In the show, she's Teen Genius Tag Along Kid from an alternate universe who after being kidnapped by the villainous Speedster Zoom, was caught in a mini-particle accelerator blast that granted her Super-Speed and was briefly trained by Barry Allen before helping him train Wally West, her boyfriend for a time.
Adaptational Early Appearance: Usually, she is introduced during the Wally West era. Here, she debuts way ahead of him.
Adaptation Dye-Job: She's blonde in the comics. Here, she has auburn hair.
Adaptation Name Change: In the comics, her name is Jesse Chambers. Word of God confirmed that her full name in the show is Jesse Chambers Wells.
Adaptation Personality Change: Jesse Quick in the comics was an insecure, tomboyish workaholic who struggled with feeling less than the other speedsters, had a short temperament, and while nerdy, it was more in the social life sense. Show Jesse is a more confident, feminine Cutie who's also a Teen Genius, doesn't appear to hold any insecurity about her power (in fact she inspires it in Wally), and is evidently socially affable enough to find a roommate while in another world relatively easily and apparently gather together her own support team.
Adaptational Superpower Change: Jesse was a speedster in the comics, but her powers worked differently; because of how she'd been trained, she had to use a spoken 'Speed formula' to mentally put herself in position to use her powers. As an extra, she had the unique ability to generate short bursts of flight with her speed, and as her mother was a super-hero with super strength that followed similar rules, she learnt to harness this as well. Here, she seems to have pretty much the same speed powers as Barry.
Adaptation Relationship Overhaul: About the only canon relationship that stayed more-or-less the same was Jesse's relationship with Jay Garrick, and even that isn't quite as close. Specifics:
- Her father; Johnny Chambers was a loving father to Jesse and she was an utter Daddy's Girl, though his sport coach-like parenting left her with some issues with earning approval. Here, she's repeatedly Calling the Old Man Out over his dysfunctional personality and terrible people skills, and while he loves her, he struggles to show it. Also, her mom is a case of Deceased Parents Are the Best when in the comics, Libby Lawrence was a smothering, somewhat overbearing mother who survived her ex-husband by many years, and Jesse had a troubled relationship with her. In many ways, the dynamic between them switched.
- Wally West; in the comics, Jesse was one of Wally's partners in crime-fighting but outside of All Love Is Unrequited on her side, they were Just Friends, with Wally seemingly seeing them as Like Brother and Sister. Wally was also much more powerful and far more experienced than Jesse, causing her to often feel like she Can't Catch Up, while Wally had a Big Brother Instinct and constantly went out of his way to help the otherwise friendless and constantly overworked Jesse socialise more. The show, obviously, made them a Beta Couple and had Jesse be the one who got powers first, helped train Wally, and caused him to feel insecure about his abilities next to hers, especially as she was a Teen Genius from a rich family.
- Barry Allen; Jesse in the comics had almost no relationship with Barry Allen, introduced while he was dead and being Demoted to Extra alongside most of the Flash Family shortly after he came Back from the Dead, and in general she was more a friend-of-a-friend. While they're still not particularly close in the show, Barry helped train her and seemed to take over Wally's role of being Jesse's Big Brother Mentor, and Jesse is now in-universe Barry's counterpart as the Flash of Earth 2.
Affectionate Nickname: Her dad calls her Jesse Quick because of how smart she is.
Amicable Exes: Breaks up with Wally due to the complexities of their situations, she lives in another universe and is busy protecting her Earth, not because she doesn't still care for him.
Broken Pedestal: For her father, when she learned he caused the meta-humans. And again when she inadvertently learns that in order to save her from Zoom, he'd killed a man. Having finally had enough of Harry's domineering personality she kicks him off Team Quick, and out of Earth-2, but she has not quite disowned him.
Bus Crash: Like her father, she is disintegrated alongside her entire Earth by the Anti-Monitor, as confirmed in "Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part Three".
Calling the Old Man Out: Jesse doesn't hesitate to call her father out on his mistakes.
Commuting on a Bus: She leaves Central City in "Trajectory" in order to explore Earth-1 and discourage her father from giving into his darker urges. She returns in "Back To Normal", and leaves at the end of Season 2, making five appearances in Season 3 and one in Season 4.
Cute Bruiser: Jesse is a cute, young woman and a badass speedster.
Damsel in Distress: Zoom keeps her hostage. She was eventually rescued by her father and a group of good people (sans Killer Frost).
Dimensional Traveler: Depending on the Writer, her Super-Speed allows her to cross The Multiverse at will.
Domino Mask: She wears one as part of her Jesse Quick Persona. It originally belonged to Trajectory.
Fiery Redhead: She has reddish-brown hair and is very opinionated.
Foregone Conclusion: As with Wally West, the reason why the announcement of her powers has no spoiler tags.
Fragile Speedster: She's faster than Barry when he first got his powers but she's far more vulnerable.
Gender-Blender Name: "Jesse" is typically a given name for males, whereas "Jessie" is usually the female spelling.
Girliness Upgrade: Inverted. Once she goes to Earth-1, she starts acting and dressing more like a Shorttank.
Good Counterpart: To Trajectory the first female speedster (who was evil). Bonus points for using the same costume (with some slight modifications).
Hero of Another Story: Since Season 3, she's essentially The Flash of Earth-2 and temporarily of Earth-3.
Hidden Buxom: Since her actress is well-endowed and the show wants to portray her as the Tagalong Kid, the wardrobe department always gives her either slightly thicker clothing or clothes that are tight enough to suppress them which are often also accompanied by plaid shirts or/and jackets for better concealment. That or they just avoid using shots that clearly displays her figure as much as possible. This is evident when she returns in Season 3 where she's wearing a plunging tanktop. The moment she takes her jacket off she's only seen either from the back or in distant shots.
Iconic Sequel Character: Does not appear until The Flash Season 2, which was during the Arrowverse's fourth year.
I Have Your Wife: Zoom keeps her hostage as a leverage against her father. She was eventually rescued.
In Name Only: Note the number of 'Adaptational Change' tropes at the top. Though the show played fast and loose with a lot of characters, the only thing connecting Jesse from the comics and Jesse from the show is they're both female speedsters nicknamed Jesse Quick. They're so different that you could have both interacting and it'd look like two completely different characters.
Jumped at the Call: When her powers kick in she's very eager to become a hero like Barry.
Missing Mom: Her mother is nowhere to be seen, but is then confirmed to have been long dead in "Back to Normal". Whether or not she's also the Earth-2 Tess Morgan remains to be seen.
Morality Pet: For her father, Harrison Wells. Sadly, it doesn't mean that their relationship is healthy.
The Ojou: She's the daughter of her world's greatest Science Hero and founder of a top-notch science laboratory.
Punny Name: She uses her Affectionate Nickname "Jesse Quick" as her superhero name after gaining Super-Speed.
Put on a Bus: She takes an extended leave in "Into the Speed Force" to perform Jay Garrick's duty as protector of Earth-3 while he assists Team Flash to defeat Savitar. She returns for one episode in Season 4, after which she leaves the team for good.^note
Real Name as an Alias: Her superhero name is also her father's Affectionate Nickname for her.
Red Is Heroic: Her costume, which ironically was originally worn by a villain (and an evil female speedster at that).
Redeeming Replacement: She is a genuinely heroic speedster in Earth-2, unlike Hunter Zolomon, who was purely evil and had a heroic facade to make the people feel hope to then steal it away. She also wears Trajectory's costume, who was also an evil speedster.
Related in the Adaptation: This version of Jesse Quick is the daughter of the S.T.A.R. Labs founder.
Ret-Gone: It's implied she no longer exists after the multiverse was recreated.
Ship Tease: She checks out Wally when at a bar with Team Flash. Kisses him before going back to Earth-2.
Significant Green-Eyed Redhead: She has auburn hair and green eyes and is Harrison Wells' daughter.
Silk Hiding Steel: At first glance she appears merely as The Cutie, but she has no qualms on calling her father out on his mistakes and (at least initially) doesn't falter at Zoom's presence even though the latter is keeping her hostage. This trope practically applies literally too, as she's mostly wearing a 1950s styled silk dress.
Sixth Ranger: She joins Team Flash after being rescued from Zoom's prison.
Skewed Priorities: She didn't want to leave Earth-2 despite the fact that she had just been rescued from an Ax-Crazy speedster who is now on her and her father's trail. Harry calls her out on it.
The Smart Girl: Easily the smartest member of Team Flash, which is The Smart Guy team of the Arrowverse. She's said to be even smarter than her father.
Tagalong Kid: The youngest member of Team Flash to date.
Tears of Fear: Whatever Zoom did to her, the moment she's briefly reunited with her father, she breaks down to the point of tears, begging not to go back.
Teen Genius: Expected, given who her father is. She graduated high school at age of 15, and is currently a college student. With five majors.
Uncertain Doom: While she died due to the Anti-Monitor's attacks on the Multiverse, her status following the recreation of the multiverse are unknown.
You Don't Look Like You: Jesse Quick of the comics was a blonde-haired all-American looking girl with a revealing outfit. The show practices Adaptational Modesty and Adaptation Dye-Job.

Harry Wells's wife

Species: Human

The late wife of Harry Wells and Jesse's late mother.

The Ghost: No picture of her is shown, nor did she appear in a flashback, leaving it ambiguous if she is Tess Morgan's, Traci Brand's or Renee Adler's Alternate Self.
The Lost Lenore: Harry became a bad tempered, rude man after losing her.
Missing Mom: She died when Jesse was really young.
No Name Given: Her name is never mentioned, which is another reason why it's uncertain if she is Tess Morgan's Alternate Self or a different woman altogether.
In Spite of a Nail: Like in Earth-1, Harrison Wells's wife sees her husband as a star on the sky, which implies S.T.A.R. Labs has the same origin of its Earth-1 counterpart's name.
Posthumous Character: She is Harry's deceased wife and Jesse's deceased mother.

Henry Hewitt

Species: Human

Played By: Demore Barnes

First Appearance: "Welcome to Earth-2" (The Flash 2x13)

Alliterative Name: Henry Hewitt.
Black and Nerdy: He's a brilliant scientist.
Evil Doppelgänger: Inverted much to Barry and Cisco's surprise, as his Earth-1 counterpart was a Villain of the Week kust a few months prior to his introduction. He also holds the distinction of being the first good Alternate Self introduced to an established villainous character.
In Spite of a Nail: He's a scientist just like in Earth-1.
Nice Guy: He's very friendly compared to his Earth-1 counterpart.
Number Two: He is Harry's deputy at S.T.A.R. Labs.
One-Steve Limit: Shares his first name with Barry's father.
Race Lift: Much like his main counterpart, he's Caucasian in the comics.
Uncertain Doom: His last time on screen was when Zoom forced him to tell where Harry and company were. Knowing Zoom, it is almost likely Henry Hewitt was murdered then and there.
We Hardly Knew Ye: He had few appearances before being grabbed by Zoom.

Jesse Quick's team

Jesse's Mission Control.

The Ghost: The only member seen so far has been Jesse Quick herself.
Hero of Another Story: They are having their own missions on Earth-2.

see the Batman (1966): Heroes page for the Earth-66 character who bears his name and background

see the The Flash (1990) page for the Earth-90 character who bears his name and background

Adaptation Dye-Job: Much like his main counterpart.
Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: He is saddened and angered to know about Earth-2 Joe's death despite their turbulent history.
Bus Crash: He didn't reappear after Season 2, and he most certainly died when his Earth was vaporized by antimatter.
Cowardly Lion: He's scared out of his mind rescuing his counterpart, but he goes along anyway since he won't leave his wife's side.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: He most certainly died when the Anti-Monitor destroyed his Earth.
Gadgeteer Genius: He created an algorithm to track metahumans based off available collected data. The only one it won't track is Zoom.

Happily Married: To Earth-2's Iris.
Hidden Depths: He's not as selfish and cowardly as he lets on.

Non-Action Guy: He doesn't have Super-Speed here.
Other Me Annoys Me: Played With. He is justified for being pissed at Earth-1 Barry both for kidnapping him for impersonation and kissing his wife. However, he understands the circumstances behind it and just lets it go.
Sharp-Dressed Man: Is dressed in a 1920s suit.
Skewed Priorities: He's more concerned with getting to meet Harry than with having just been kidnapped by his superpowered Alternate Self.

Twin Switch: Barry kidnaps and then disguises himself as him.

Adaptation Dye-Job: To accommodate her Race Lift, much like her main counterpart.
Aloof Dark-Haired Girl: She sports an aura of confidence.
Alternate Universe Reed Richards Is Awesome: She is a cop instead of a reporter, although both her and her Earth-1 counterpart are involved in their cities' protection.
Badass Normal: Perhaps more so than her Earth-1 counterpart, as she's not afraid to go after Metahumans.
Black Boss Lady: Earth-2 Barry mentions that she possesses "an authority" at CCPD.
Fair Cop: She's a good-looking detective.
Generation Xerox: She mentions that her grandfather was also a cop.
Girls with Guns: Justified as she is a cop.
Great Detective: Implied, as she is shown being greatly respected by her colleagues.
Guys Smash, Girls Shoot: Heavily implied since her partner, Floyd Lawton, sucks at firearms.
Happily Married: To Earth-2's Barry Allen.

- She still ended up losing a parent like her Earth-1 counterpart, and that is if Francine is not dead in this world.
- Her and her husband's Earth-1 counterparts ultimately married each other as well.

Lady of War: She retains her grace while on the job.
The Maiden Name Debate: She's addressed as Detective West despite being married to Barry, who also works for the CCPD.

Ms. Fanservice: In her first appearance, she strips down to her underwear and quickly follows it with a Lingerie Scene.
Prim and Proper Bun: Donned in 1920s style.
Race Lift: Same case as her main counterpart.
True Companions: With Lawton.
Two Girls to a Team: She and Patty Spivot are the only known female members of the CCPD. However, only Iris shows up on-screen.

Species: Human

Played By: Jesse L. Martin

First Appearance: "Welcome to Earth-2" (The Flash 2x13)

Appearances: The Flash

Joe's Earth-2 counterpart who is a renowned musician. Still Iris's father.

see the Arrowverse: West/Allen Family page for his Earth-Prime counterpart

Action Survivor: Not as active as his Earth-1 counterpart, but is willing to step into the action if his loved ones are in danger.
Actor Allusion: Earth-2 Joe being a singer is an allusion to his actor being one.
Adaptation Dye-Job: Much like his main counterpart.
And Starring: It is his actor's name in the OBB.
Celebrity Paradox:
- A Villain of the Week in Season 2 mentions the Law & Order franchise. His actor was one of the longest-serving cast members of the parent series, which also happens to be his Star-Making Role as a screen actor. Speaking of which...
- Cisco mentioned Elsa from Frozen during his first visit to Earth-2. Said character is voiced by Idina Menzel, who along with his actor, was one of the pioneer cast of the popular Broadway show, RENT.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: To Joe, who along with (Earth-1) Iris, expresses sadness over his death despite not meeting him personally.
Friendly Address Privileges: When the Earth-1 counterpart of his despised son-in-law affectionately greeted him (while disguised as the latter) as "Joe", he scoffs it and tells him to formally address him by his first name.
Heroic Bystander: Protected Iris when Deathstorm attacked, which ultimately got him killed.
Idol Singer: He is a renowned singer.
Jerkass Has a Point: While he and Barry are definitely Obnoxious In-Laws, his antagonism towards him mainly stems from his belief that he influenced his daughter to be a cop, which puts her at constant risk.
Jerkass Façade: His Jerk Justifications for being an ass to Barry is because he's afraid that Iris might be killed in the line of duty.
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Despite his disdain for his Barry, he tells him (unknowingly Barry-1 at the time) to take care of his Iris before he dies.
Non-Action Guy: Unlike his Earth-1 self, he's not a fighter.
Obnoxious In-Laws: He hates Barry because he thinks he influenced his daughter to become a cop, hence putting her at risk. The hatred is apparently mutual.
Race Lift: Same case as his main counterpart.
Redemption Equals Death: He makes amends with Barry before he dies. Sadly, it's not the Barry he thinks.
Sharp-Dressed Man: He is dressed in a suit due to the Retro Universe setting of his world.
Stuffed in the Fridge: Avenging his death is half of the reason why his daughter goes with Earth-1 Cisco to Zoom's Supervillain Lair.
Tall, Dark, and Snarky: He stands 6'3 and is very snarky, at least towards Barry.
Taking the Bullet: Shields Iris from Deathstorm's attack, which ultimately leads to his death.

James Zolomon

Species: Human

First Appearance: "Versus Zoom" (The Flash 2x18)

Appearances: The Flash

A War of the Americas veteran and the father of Hunter Zolomon aka Zoom.

Abusive Parents: He is both psychologically and emotionally abusive to his son.
Adaptational Nice Guy: Only by comparison. In the comics, Hunter's father was a Serial Killer who murdered six young girls along with his wife. Here, he seems to only murder the latter, and it's in a fit of rage rather than premeditated.
Alternate Self: Has one as a nameless ESU Sergeant on Earth-1.
Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Word of God says he was an abusive husband for years, even during the times when he was projecting himself as a "respectable" war hero.
Chekhov's Gunman: He was mentioned by his son early in Season 2.
Composite Character: His background as a soldier and the original owner of Jay's helmet comes from Jay's father while his charming personality and murder of his wife comes from Hunter's father.
Corruption of a Minor: Proudly guns down his wife in front of their son.
Dad the Veteran: Zoom's father and a veteran from the War of the Americans. It's never directly stated but the stress of the war seems to have damaged his psyche.

Domestic Abuse: He is introduced beating up his wife.
Fallen Hero: Word of God says he was a respected war hero until he murdered his wife.
Harmful to Minors: His son was Forced to Watch him murdering his mother.
Jerkass: He's a very unpleasant person in his one scene.
Like Father, Like Son: James' son Hunter would also grow up into a violent, cruel man, albeit to a level that utterly dwarfs his father's crimes.
Named by the Adaptation: In the comics, Hunter Zolomon's father is a No Name Given character.
Shell-Shocked Veteran: It is heavily implied that the war he fought in damaged him emotionally and psychologically.
Small Role, Big Impact: His being a horrible husband and father is what ruined his son mentally and emotionally, causing him to become a Serial Killer and monstrous supervillain.
Spared by the Adaptation: In the comics, he is gunned down by the police after he killed his wife. Here, Harry Wells says that he was only incarcerated but is serving a life sentence (assuming Zoom didn't do anything to him in between the years, that is).
Walking Spoiler: Talking about him reveals a lot about the backstory of his son Hunter.
Would Hit a Girl: He is a Domestic Abuser as said above. He ends up murdering his wife in cold blood while forcing their son to watch.

Ashley Zolomon

Species: Human

Played By: Tatyana Forrest

First Appearance: "Versus Zoom" (The Flash 2x18)

Appearances: The Flash

James' wife and mother of Hunter Zolomon aka Zoom.

Alternate Self: Has one on Earth-1 though she isn't given a name.
Butt-Monkey: Her husband abused her for years.
Composite Character: Has the name of Zoom's wife in the comics, but her main counterpart here is his mother.
Decomposite Character: Her role as Zoom's (unhealthy and obsessive) Love Interest in the comics is given to Earth-1 Caitlin Snow in the show, though unlike comic Ashley, Caitlin doesn't see him as anything more than a monster when she learns the truth.
Domestic Abuse: Her husband physically, emotionally, and psychologically abused her.
Housewife: Implied to be a stereotypical stay-at-home wife and mother during The '50s and earlier. This is either due to the Retro Universe setting (though this Earth's Iris works as a cop, and a respected one at that) or her husband having a Stay in the Kitchen mentality (which is very likely).
Inelegant Blubbering: She was introduced crying hysterically while being assaulted by her husband.
In Spite of a Nail: Her Earth-1 counterpart is also a Posthumous Character, having suffered Death by Childbirth. This is assuming that her son is telling the truth regarding their Earth-1 counterparts.
Named by the Adaptation: In the comics, Hunter Zolomon's mother is a No Name Given character.
Posthumous Character: She's long dead in the present day.
Small Role, Big Impact: Her son being Forced to Watch by her husband when he murdered her is what screwed him up mentally and emotionally, causing him to become a Serial Killer.
Stuffed in the Fridge: Her death gives her son the Freudian Excuse to become a Serial Killer.
Walking Spoiler: Talking about her reveals a lot about the backstory of her son Hunter.

Adaptational Heroism: Enforced and Invoked by The Multiverse setting of the show.
Adaptational Wimp: Invoked and Played for Laughs. In the main universe and the comic continuity, he is/was one of the best marksman and gunslinger. Here, he's... not.
Alternate Self: He holds the honor of being the first for any Arrow character, as back when The Multiverse concept is introduced, only ones for The Flash characters have appeared.
Amusingly Awful Aim: In stark contrast to his Earth-1 counterpart, Earth-2 Lawton is shown to have atrocious aim. Him being nicknamed "Deadshot" by his peers was supposed to be a source of mockery.
Badass in a Nice Suit: Subverted. He wears a suit and he is a cop, but he is far from being a competent marksman.
Butt-Monkey: He's an absolute terrible shot with a firearm.
Determinator: He continues to try being a good detective in spite of his Butt-Monkey status.
Embarrassing Nickname: Earth-2 Floyd Lawton hates being called Deadshot.
Evil Doppelgänger: Inverted. He's a noble man of the law while his Earth-1 counterpart was an infamous hitman. He also holds the distinction of being the first good Alternate Self introduced to a major Arrowverse supervillain.
Fearless Fool: He rushes into combat without any hesitation despite being aware of his extremely poor marksmanship.
Guys Smash, Girls Shoot: Heavily implied since he sucks at firearms while Iris is a great shot.

In-Universe Nickname: "Deadshot" like his Earth-1 Counterpart.
Ironic Nickname: He gets called "Deadshot" as mockery for his inability to hit anything with a gun.
Large Ham: Averted. Unlike his Earth-1 counterpart, his speech patterns and mannerisms are very casual.
Meaningful Name: Mr. Lawton happens to be a police detective.
The Pollyanna: Keeps a positive attitude despite his Butt-Monkey status.
True Companions: With Iris.
Uncertain Doom: He is last seen at the climax of "Welcome To Earth-Two", when he is blasted with sonic waves by Reverb. He is not seen or even referred to in the following episode.

Dead Alternate Counterpart: For Earth-1 Patty after Earth-2's disintegration.
Fair Cop: She seems to be the rare Earth-2 character who's exactly the same as the Earth-1 version.
The Ghost: Much like Mayor Snart and Robert Queen, she is only referred to, and never actually seen.
Two Girls to a Team: 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".

Mayor Snart

Species: Human

The Earth-2 counterpart of either Leonard, Lisa or Lewis Snart who is the current mayor of Central City.

Adaptational Heroism: 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 Arrowverse.
Ambiguous Situation: Since they're only referred to by their last name, and no pronouns are used, it's unclear which Snart is Central City's mayor.
Evil Twin: Inverted; their Earth-1 counterpart is a criminal, while this Snart is a Reasonable Authority Figure and the mayor of Central City.
The Ghost: S/He's not seen, only referred to.

Known Alias: Mirror Master

A thief who uses a special gun to travel through reflective surfaces.

see the Arrowverse: Team Arrow - Family Members page for Earth-1 Robert

Action Dad: He's a Vigilante Man and has two children.
Adaptational Badass: Invoked by being a Composite Character of The Longbow Hunters version of Robert Queen and the Flashpoint Thomas Wayne, who is the resident Badass Normal superhero instead of his son.
Ambiguous Situation:
- 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.
- It's unclear if his family disowned him for becoming a vigilante or if they're Locked Out of the Loop regarding his arrest.
Badass in Distress: First and last time we heard of him he's about to be incarcerated.
Badass Normal: Doesn't have powers, but is a known Vigilante Man.
Beard of Sorrow: If he does sports a beard, then it also doubles as this since he cannot be a happy man after everything that happened to him.
Composite Character: This version is obviously a mix of The Longbow Hunters version of Robert Queen and the Flashpoint Thomas Wayne.

see the Arrowverse: Earth-X page for Earth-X Oliver

Adaptational Wimp: Invoked by being Oliver's much weaker and undeveloped Alternate Self.
Composite Character: This version is obviously a mix of Oliver Queen and the Flashpoint Bruce Wayne.
Cynicism Catalyst:
- His death was the final straw for Laurel to kickstart her Start of Darkness, as she eventually confirms to Earth-1 Felicity.
- His death also caused grief for his sister Thea, so much that she overdosed on Vertigo and die. This would then in turn lead to Tommy's Start of Darkness and becoming the villainous Dark Archer.
Dead Alternate Counterpart:
- To the main Oliver Queen, though he only learns about him from Black Siren.
- He's also this to the Evil Doppelgänger from Earth-X, who most likely doesn't give a fuck about him.
Dead Guy Impersonation: His counterpart from Earth-1 ends up taking his spot, pretending to have survived the island and returns to Starling City nearly 8 years later.
Death by Origin Story: For both his father and Laurel. His death is presumably one of the reasons (if not, the main) why his father became a Vigilante Man. However, it certainly served as perhaps the final straw for Laurel's Start of Darkness into Black Siren.
Killed Offscreen: Died on a yacht trip several years before the story.
The Lost Lenore: For Laurel Lance/Black Siren/Black Canary. His death was heavily implied to be the final straw for her Start of Darkness, and she evidently still holds a torch for him long after his death.
Never Found the Body: His presumed fate, given that it was a maritime accident that took his life.
Posthumous Character: Unlike the main Earth-1 version, he did not survive the sinking of the Queen's Gambit in 2007.

Thea Queen

Played By: Willa Holland

Species: Human

Appearances: Arrow

Moira Queen & Malcolm Merlyn's daughter, and the sister of the late Oliver, who died due to Vertigo overdose to cope up with her loss. She was the Earth-2 counterpart of Starling City vigilante Thea Queen.

see the Arrowverse: Team Arrow page for Earth-1 Thea

see the Arrowverse: Other Earths page for Earth-16 Thea

see the Smallville: Clark's Allies page for Mia Dearden, the Earth-167 character who along with Thea is based on the character of the same name

Affectionate Nickname: Black Siren heavily implies through her interactions with the Earth-1 Thea that her nickname is also Speedy.
Ambiguous Situation: Until her death was finally revealed in the Arrow final season premiere, it was unclear what her status was due to Earth-2 Laurel's vague references.
Break the Cutie: She has a dead older brother and a dad who's in jail. Her grief led her to Vertigo addiction, ultimately killing her.
Broken Bird: She did not take Robert and Oliver's accident well.
Cynicism Catalyst: Her death is what causes Tommy to become the Dark Archer.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: To Earth-1 Thea, she is long dead by the time Oliver visits Earth-2 in Season 8, having overdosed on vertigo on her eighteenth birthday out of sorrow.
Descent into Addiction: Her grief over what happened to her father and brother causes her to become addicted to Vertigo, which ultimately kills her.
Died on Their Birthday: She died on her eighteenth birthday.
The Ghost: She doesn't appear on-screen, just referred to her Earth-1 counterpart by this world's Laurel. Turns out it's because she's been dead for years.
Informed Attribute: Black Siren says that this Thea is not naive unlike the main Earth-1 version, but never made an appearance to confirm this.
In Spite of a Nail: This version of Thea Queen also ending up taking vertigo on her eighteenth birthday. Unlike the Thea of Earth-1, she doesn't survive, having been so distressed she overdosed.
Kill the Cutie: Due to drug overdose.
Posthumous Character: Dead for seven years when The Reveal about her fate was made.
Stuffedin A Fridge: Her death via Vertigo addiction is what pushes her half-brother Tommy to vow on eradicating its suppliers at any cost.
Unseen No More: A variant. Unlike this world's Oliver, this Thea is at least eventually shown via photograph.

Moira Queen

Species: Human

Played By: Susanna Thompson

First Appearance: "Starling City" (Arrow 8x1)

Appearances: Arrow

The mother of the late Oliver and Thea on Earth-2, as well as the wife of Malcolm Merlyn and the step-mother of Tommy.

see the Arrowverse: Team Arrow - Family Members page for Earth-1 Moira

see the Arrowverse: Earth-X for the unnamed AI who bears her voice likeness

Dead Alternate Counterpart: Inverted. She's the still living counterpart to Earth-1 Moira Queen, allowing Oliver to have another chance to spend time with his mother. Though she ends up dying anyway along with the rest of Earth-2.
Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: Unlike her Earth-1 counterpart, this Moira never had any baggage and mean streak.
Outliving One's Offspring: She has two dead children; one died in a maritime accident, the other in a drug overdose.
Relationship Upgrade: With Walter not present and most of their kids dead, Malcolm and Moira ended up marrying on this Earth.
Sacrificial Lamb: Oliver gets a tearful reunion with her, only for Oliver to see her get disintegrated along with the rest of Earth-2 by an antimatter wave.
Second Love: She is Malcolm's second wife.
Take My Hand!: She was reaching out for Oliver's hand before the antimatter hits her.

Lance Family

Quentin Lance

Species: Human

Dinah Laurel Lance's late father who died during her thirteenth birthday. He is the Earth-2 counterpart of Starling City Police Detective then Captain and later Deputy Mayor Quentin Lance.

see the Arrowverse: Team Arrow - Family Members page for Earth-1 Quentin

see the Arrowverse: Other Earths page for Earth-16 Quentin

see Arrowverse: Earth-X page for his Earth-X counterpart

13 Is Unlucky: He died during his daughter's thirteenth birthday.
Cynicism Catalyst: His death is the first straw for his daughter's descent into villainy.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: For both the main (Earth-1) Quentin and the evil one from Earth-X.
Death by Irony: He was killed by a Drunk Driver, whereas his main (Earth-1) counterpart has a history of being a struggling alcoholic.
Disappeared Dad: For both Black Siren and Sara since they were respectively thirteen and eleven years old.
Family-Unfriendly Death: Literally, as he was killed in front of his daughter on her birthday.
From Bad to Worse: His death is just the beginning of a series of unfortunate events for his daughter's life.
In Spite of a Nail: Like his Earth-1 counterpart, alcoholism caused a major problem for him and his family.
Look Both Ways: He got ran over by a Drunk Driver during his daughter's thirteenth birthday.
Posthumous Character: Dead for nearly two decades once The Reveal of his fate is made.

Sara Lance

Species: Human

Dinah Laurel Lance's sister. She is the Earth-2 counterpart of Sara Lance aka White Canary.

see the Arrowverse: Sara Lance page for her Earth-1 counterpart

see the Arrowverse: Other Earths page for her Earth-16 counterpart

see Arrowverse: Earth-X page for her Earth-X counterpart

Ambiguous Situation: All that is known about her is that she has a child. Whether she's married, widowed, separated, or a single mother is never elaborated on.
Babies Make Everything Better: Heavily implied by Black Siren. Talking about her sister and her soon-to-be born nephew or niece are one of the few things Black Siren fondly talks about.
Break the Cutie: She has a dead father and an older sister who lost her way for much of her life.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: Zig-Zagged. The main Earth-1 Sara actually died in 2014 but was resurrected the following year, whereas this version is implied to be alive and well. At least she was before Earth-2 is disintegrated.
The Ghost: She doesn't appear on-screen, her sister just likes talking about her pregnancy.
Happily Married: Earth-2 Laurel mentions her having a family of her own.
Killed Offscreen: When the antimatter wave hits Earth-2, she is not shown escaping its destruction. Laurel naturally assumes that she has been killed.
Morality Pet: Talking about her and her child brings out a surprisingly softer side to her normally sour sister. Her death during Earth-2's disintegration nearly sends her sister back into depression.
One Drink Will Kill the Baby: Her sister mentions that she had to be kept from drinking alcohol during her pregnancy.

Merlyn Family

Malcolm Merlyn

Species: Human

Played By: John Barrowman

First Appearance: "Starling City" (Arrow 8x1)

Appearances: Arrow

The father of Tommy Merlyn and the second husband of Moira Queen.

see the Arrowverse: Malcolm Merlyn page for Earth-1 Malcolm Merlyn

Alliterative Name: Malcolm Merlyn.
Ambiguous Situation: Word of God is that Earth-1 Malcolm's birth name is Arthur King. It's unclear if that is the real name of this version or if he changed it like his Earth-1 counterpart.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: Inverted. He's the still living counterpart to Earth-1 Malcolm Merlyn, who had performed a Heroic Sacrifice in Season 5.
Good Counterpart: This version never became the villainous Dark Archer, with that honor going to his son, Tommy.
Nice Guy: Oliver is quite surprised to actually meet a version of him that's not a treacherous jackass.
Red Herring: In the exact opposite scenario to his Earth-1 counterpart, he's not actually the Dark Archer, but rather Tommy is. Oliver immediately assumes it's Malcolm until he's proven otherwise.
Relationship Upgrade: With Walter not present and most of their kids dead, Malcolm and Moira ended up marrying on this Earth.
Second Love: He's Moira's second husband after Robert.
Tall, Dark, and Handsome: Played by the 6'1 John Barrowman.

Tommy Merlyn / Dark Archer

Thomas "Tommy" Merlyn / Dark Archer

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/20201022_195003.png

Species: Human

Played By: Colin Donnell

First Appearance: "Starling City" (Arrow 8x1)

Appearances: Arrow

The son of Malcolm and step-son of Moira. A childhood friend of both Oliver and Laurel, he is secretly a criminal known as the Dark Archer.

see the Arrowverse: Team Arrow - Family Members page for Earth-1 Tommy

see the Arrowverse: Earth-X page for Earth-X Tommy

Alternate Self: He's both one to Tommy Merlyn and the Dark Archer of Earth-1.
Beard of Sorrow: Sports one and is a broken man.
Broken Ace: This Tommy is the one with Survivor's Guilt over outliving both Oliver and Thea. He tries to hold it in, but underneath he's thoroughly broken.
Composite Character: This version of Tommy was the one who became the Dark Archer rather than his father, making him one to Merlyn the Dark Archer and the villainous Tommy Merlyn of New 52.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: Inverted. He's still living unlike his Earth-1 and Earth-X counterparts, at least until he gets killed along with the rest of his Earth. Earth-1 Tommy is then ultimately revived when Oliver recreates the multiverse, so he could be a dead counterpart of him.
Driven to Villainy: His half-sister's death causes him to snap, vowing to destroy every single person responsible for it.
Evil Counterpart: Even on another Earth, the Dark Archer is still this to the Green Arrow, with their fights being a Mirror Match. Though unlike Earth-1 Malcolm, Tommy is not inherently evil and is a Well-Intentioned Extremist, who eventually sees reason.
Evil Doppelgänger: Played with. He's the Dark Archer on Earth-2, but he's not inherently evil, just broken. Oliver is quite quick to forgive him.
In Spite of a Nail:
- On Earth-2, a Merlyn still ended up becoming the Dark Archer, only it was the son rather than the father.
- On Earth-X, he's also a hooded masked Badass Normal.
Knight Templar Big Brother: Thea's death via drug overdose is enough for him to snap and vow on destroying the entire town it's being produced in.
Nice Mean And In Between: Of the three known Tommy Merlyns in The Multiverse, he's the in-between one due being a misguided Knight Templar Big Brother. The late Earth-1 Tommy was a Nice Guy, while the late Earth-X version was the mean one being a Nazi supervillain.
Real Life Writes the Plot: Colin Donnell leaving Chicago Med was what finally freed up his schedule to make a return for Season 8 of Arrow.
Sacrificial Lamb: He ends up getting disintegrated along with the rest of Earth-2 by an antimatter wave in front of Oliver's eyes.
Serial Spouse: He's been married at least twice.
Starter Villain: He is the first antagonist of the final season of Arrow.
Well-Intentioned Extremist: He wants to get rid of Vertigo and its manufacturers... by destroying the entire town it's being made from.

Ambiguous Situation: It's unclear if Adrian Chase is his real name or if he changed it like his Earth-1 counterpart.
The Apprentice: This version is implied to have been a student of Bruce Wayne at some point, in a similar fashion to Oliver and Slade.
Alternate Self: To both the Earth-1 version of Adrian Chase and the Green Arrow.
Beard of Evil: Inverted. He is bearded and good unlike his beardless Earth-1 counterpart.
Borrowed Catch Phrase: Oliver steals the Catchphrase of the Chase from his Earth, telling him "maybe I'm just ten steps ahead of you".
Carpet of Virility: When he is practicing the salmon ladder shirtless, his hairy chest and his muscular build are visible.
Composite Character: This version of Adrian Chase becomes the Green Arrow of Earth-2.
Genius Bruiser: Aside from his great strength and work as the Hood, he can hold himself with computers in a way Oliver compared him with Curtis and Felicity. He was also able to figure out Oliver Queen came from another Earth.
Good Twin: His Earth-1 counterpart was the villainous Prometheus and the Arch-Enemy of Green Arrow.
Hero of Another Story: He was protecting Starling City so far.
In Spite of a Nail: This version of him still goes by the name Adrian Chase rather than Simon Morrison, as well as being connected to the Green Arrow.
Legacy Character: The second person to take on the mantle of the Hood after Robert Queen.
Morality Pet: He was a close friend of Laurel Lance and one of the most important people on his life. She was very saddened about losing him during the destruction of Earth-2.
Mirror Match: Both Green Arrows fight it out when they first meet.

Rene Ramirez

Species: Human

Played By: Rick Gonzalez

First Appearance: "Starling City" (Arrow 8x1)

Appearances: Arrow

The head of security of Queen-Merlyn Enterprises, as well as a secret associate of Tommy Merlyn. He is the Earth-2 version of Rene Ramirez.

Alliterative Name: Rene Ramirez.

Co-Dragons: With Dinah to Tommy. Though they are far less effective in combat than their Earth-1 counterparts.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: Is shown disintegrated by the antimatter wave in Arrow Season 8 premiere.
Evil Counterpart: He is essentially what Diggle is to Oliver during the first two seasons towards Earth-2 Tommy.
Evil Doppelgänger: For Earth-1 Rene.
Private Military Contractors: He is heavily implied to be a mercenary akin to the villains in Arrow Season 1 such as Constantine Drakon and the Blackhawks.
Sacrificial Lamb: He is seen getting disintegrated by the antimatter wave along with the rest of her Earth.
Sharp-Dressed Man: Unlike the present day Earth-1 Rene, he's suited up due to being a bodyguard.

Felicity Smoak

Species: Human

A woman who is said to rule her empire with an iron fist.

see the Arrowverse: Team Arrow for Earth-1 Felicity

see the Arrowverse: Other Earths page for Earth-16 Felicity

see the Arrowverse: Earth-X page for her Earth-X counterpart

Ambiguous Situation: Black Siren told Felicity's Earth-1 counterpart that she runs an empire. Whether it's an actual empire (which is very possible given that Earth-2 is a Retro Universe) or an Evil, Inc. MegaCorp is never elaborated on.
Ambiguously Evil: Whether she's just a ruthless individual (as Black Siren puts it) or downright evil is never elaborated on.
Evil Doppelgänger: Downplayed. She's said to be ruthless than downright evil, though see Ambiguously Evil above.
The Ghost: Doesn't appear on-screen, just referred to her Earth-1 counterpart by this world's Laurel.
Informed Attribute: Black Siren says she's a ruthless overlord, but she has yet to appear in person to confirm this.
Mean Boss: Said to be a ruthless woman who runs her empire.
Real Life Writes the Plot: Despite the majority of the old Arrow cast returning in "Starling City", Earth-2 Felicity is noticeably absent. This is because Emily Bett Rickards had left the show at that point.
Rich Bitch: Is said to be a ruthless person who runs her own empire (whether it's a literal or figu rative empire is not elaborated on).

Curtis Holt

Species: Human

Played By: Echo Kellum

First Appearance: "Starling City" (Arrow 8x1, photo)

The Earth-2 version of Curtis Holt.

see the Arrowverse: Team Arrow page for Earth-1 Curtis.

The Ghost: Only shows up via picture.

Nick Anastas

Species: Human

Played by: Evan Roderick

First Appearance: "Starling City" (Arrow 8x1, photo)

Appearances: Arrow

The Earth-2 version of Nick Anastas.

see Arrowverse Star City Citizens page to see Earth-1 Brett

The Ghost: Only shows up via picture.
Straight Gay: Much like in Earth-1. He is shown in a picture to be in a relationship with a man.

Criminals

Damien Darhk

Species: (Possibly Empowered) Human

A notorious criminal.

see the Arrowverse: Damien Darhk for Earth-1 Damien

Alliterative Name: Damien Darhk.
The Ghost: Doesn't appear on-screen, just referred to by Earth-1 Quentin and Earth-2 Laurel.
In Spite of a Nail: When Earth-1 Quentin asks Black Siren, his late eldest daughter's Alternate Self from this world, if Damien Darhk exists and if he's still a sick bastard, she says yes.
Villain of Another Story: Earth-2 Laurel implied he was still a "sick bastard".

Brett Collins

Species: Human

Played By: Peter Graham-Gaudreau

First Appearance: "Past Sins" (Arrow 7x11)

Appearances: Arrow

A drunk driver who killed Quentin Lance.

see Arrowverse: Star City - Independent Criminals page to see Earth-1 Brett

The Alcoholic: A chronic one.
Alcohol-Induced Idiocy: He decided to drive while intoxicated, leading to Quentin's death.
Canon Foreigner: No comic book counterpart.
Dead Alternate Counterpart: The Earth-1 Brett Collins is still alive when he's introduced.
In Spite of a Nail: His Earth-1 counterpart is also an alcoholic.
Karma Houdini Warranty: He accidentally killed Quentin and got away with it until Quentin's daughter beats him up fifteen years later, and he died for unknown reasons the following year.
Killed Offscreen: He died 'cause of unknown reasons following his confrontation with Laurel.
Posthumous Character: Dead for at least two years when Black Siren was introduced.
Small Role, Big Impact: His Alcohol-Induced Idiocy above directly caused Dinah Laurel Lance to become the notorious criminal Black Siren.

Gorilla City

Solovar

Species: Meta-Gorilla

Played By: Keith David

First Appearance: "Attack on Gorilla City" (The Flash 3x13)

Appearances: The Flash

The ruler of Gorilla City, who believes humans are dangerous to his people.

Adaptational Badass: As opposed to previous incarnations of Solovar who are either defeated by Grodd or are forced to rely upon the help of The Flash or other heroes to help him take down Grodd, this incarnation of Solovar is strong enough to overpower Grodd all on his own and Grodd himself even admits that he's unable to defeat Solovar in a fair fight.
Adaptational Dumbass: This Solovar is much less scientifically brilliant than his comic counterpart, relying on a spear and shield rather than Frickin' Laser Beams.
Adaptational Villainy: The comic Solovar was a Reasonable Authority Figure, while this one is a brutal warmonger. Although it's revealed that he never wanted war in the first place, he's still much more brutal and paranoid than his comic counterpart.
Adaptation Dye-Job: His fur is grey in the comics, but white here, to better distinguish him from Grodd.
Advertised Extra: Heavily hyped in promotions, but was greatly underused in the two-part arc due to the show's limited budget on featuring CGI gorillas.
Ambiguously Evil: It's never established if he's just violently paranoid over humans or if he's just as evil as Grodd says.
Asskicking Leads to Leadership: His defeat at Barry's hands causes him to be removed as leader, but him whopping Grodd's ass quickly got him reinstated.
Back from the Dead: He is implied to have revived after the Crisis and be relocated to Earth-Prime.
Bad Boss: According to Grodd, he is a tyrant. While we don't see much of him, he does slap Grodd around for talking back to him.
Bus Crash: He dies when an antimatter wave destroys Earth-2. However, he is implied to be in Earth-Prime now.
Celebrity Paradox: The Disney Animated Canon is acknowledged to exist on the Arrowverse. His voice actor was on both Hercules and The Princess and the Frog, playing the villain on the latter film.
Death by Adaptation: His comics version did die in Crisis on Infinite Earths, but this version dies before that storyline's adaptation.
Defeat Means Respect: Has no problems helping Team Flash deal with Grodd despite Barry kicking his ass in the previous episode. This is justified because of two things; the first is the Might Makes Right mentality that the Gorilla City residents display, the second is Solovar just hates Grodd that much for usurping him.
Fights Like a Normal: For a given value of normal. He possesses psychic powers similar to Grodd's, but doesn't use them in his fight with Barry, preferring brute force.
Lightning Bruiser: He's freakishly fast for his size, and is capable of performing parkour that would make the Arrow characters proud.
Noble Demon: After defeating Grodd, he withdraws the Gorilla army from Earth-1 and even spares Grodd on Barry's insistence.
Psychic Powers: Like Grodd's. It is unknown if this is standard for the gorillas, or if, like in the comics, it is unique to Grodd and the royal family.
Red Herring: He isn't the one who wants to invade Central City, Grodd is.
Shockwave Stomp: Strong enough to engulf an entire arena.

Grodd

see Birds of Prey (2002) for the Earth-203 character who bears his name and background

see DCEU: Batman page for the character on an undesignated Earth who bears his name and background

Ambiguous Situation: It's unclear what his status is.
Composite Character: This version of Batman seems to take elements from the Deathstroke of Earth-1, with the Batcowl being mounted the same way as shown in Mythology Gag.
Early-Bird Cameo: He first appeared as an Easter Egg on Earth-2 Barry's phone, although it's not certain if this is actually the Bruce Wayne or some random person named Bruce.
The Ghost: He never appears in person, with only his cowl making an appearance.
Great Detective: Adrian mentions that Bruce told him "When you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."
The Mentor: Implied he was this to the Earth-2 Adrian Chase at some point.
Mythology Gag: His mask is presented in the exact same way as Slade's mask was on Earth-1; mounted with an arrow through it.
