    Shit, it's back? Hype! :toot:

    Flash was on last night and Arrow tonight (UK Time - I guess is on Prime Time US)
     
  3. Reagan Wheelson RDP Wheelson

    Get hyped for Jay Garrick and Zoom.

    Keen for Arrow tonight as well.

    Can anyone please explain the difference between Reverse Flash (Wells) and Zoom? I've googled it but the explanations are extremely confusing.

    Reverse flash or Professor Zoom = Eobard Thawne, crazy jealous dude from the distant future archenemy of Barry Allen. Gets his powers by replicating how Barry got them in the future. Powers are basically the same as Flash, or rather than the inverse. Speed force. Typically a callous asshole who taunts Flash.

    Zoom = Hunter Zoloman, crazy bloke from present day archenemy of the second Flash, Wally West. Gets his powers in an accident. Powers appear the same but are different, he controls time rather than is 'fast', but in such a way that it makes him seem fast. No speed force. Zoloman is more just an unhinged guy rather than Machiavellian.

    Was that intentional by the writers, naming them both zoom, or just comics being comics?
     
  7. Athlai JJD Heads

    Dunno, I'd assume it's just shitty comics writing in the 80s or something.
     
  8. Athlai JJD Heads

    Strike that. He named himself Zoom after Professor Zoom to become the new flashs enemy and to give him a personal tragedy to make him a better hero.

    I feel like that's two massive "spoilers" they could have saved for shocks or twists in that Arrow episode.

    inb4 the person who died is not who you think it is, thus providing the shock/twist later on.
     
  11. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Probably. They did set up massive "shes going to die" vibes with Felicity though with the two of them being happy (outrageous).
     
  12. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Can't help but feel like that female cop or Earth 2 Flash is actually Zoom trying to infiltrate the Flash camp to learn how to beat him
     
  13. Reagan Wheelson RDP Wheelson

    Yeah, I get that vibe too. More from the chick cop than Jay Garrick, but it could be both.
     
  14. Cribbage RG Cribb

    I was thinking that too but they're both real characters in the comics apparently. The show seems to be heading more towards to the comics rather than going further away from them, so from what I've read it'd be seriously weird for Spivot or Garrick to be Zoom at this point. I was getting those vibes too but I think they might be deliberate red herrings tbh.

    Even though the Legends of Tomorrow trailer spoiled it for everyone, we will finally get to see Sara be revived in the Lazarus Pit in Arrow soon. Now we just need to wait and see how Ray and Ronnie come back.
     
  16. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Ronnie will be in Earth 2. To preserve energy and momentum Ronnie and the Prof will have gone in the opposite direction when they split - Stein ended up on Earth Prime which means Ronnie went into Earth 2 through the worm hole.

    Maybe that supergenious gay black guy (he must have had it rough growing up in the states) will invent something to bring Ray back to normal size.

    Sara is going to be seriously fucked up though. Can see her becoming a villain for a bit in the future

    I haven't read the comics, but my theory about Zoom is, and I've seen it floating around on reddit as well, that Zoom is Barry from another universe, possibly Earth-2.

    So is Stein just going to seize at the end of every episode?

    Am I the only that already likes Jax better than Ronnie?

    Such a good episode.
