The Flash (CW) Season 7 March 2, 2021

[Darkdreamer]

Given how much they have gone out of their way to disguise any features and even the voice Zoom has to be someone we know. I thought the preview showed Earth-2 Barry and he was like full nerd or something? Anyone they show next week I don't think will have much chance in being Zoom. I have a feeling Zoom is too busy doing evil Zoom things to even want to live a normal life where Barry will be able to see him and not know it. I do really like the Barry's dad theory, I didn't even think of him as Zoom. For now I would have to hold that it has to be someone Barry has an emotional connection to on Earth 1, it has to be hard for Barry to fight Zoom. That emotional outburst of "You're not _____!!" could be enough to push Barry to go fast enough to beat Zoom.

In the comics, (never read it but going off of what's on wiki), wasn't Hunter Zolomon supposed to be Zoom?

They recently explained it away, when Caitlin tried to cure Jay Garrett. Garrett showed her that Zolomon was a normal dude on Earth 1 with zero speed force. Zolomon of course being Garrett's Earth 1 doppelganger.

btw... have they ever shown Wally actually going to see his mother in the hospital? He and Iris talked about it, but I don't remember them being in the same room with her. Could it be that Earth 2 Wally impersonating Earth 1 Wally? If that's the case, that's another candidate for Zoom's secret identity. I know he has some animosity towards Barry as a step brother, but when he, Joe and Iris were having dinner, he made this glib comment about Barry always being in a rush. Maybe I am reading too much into it.

Wasn't Zolomon on Earth 1 an adopted Jay Garrick because his parents had died as a child.

If Garrick's parents didn't die on Earth 2, the Zolomon family could had adopted another child who became Hunter Zolomon

[Hirronimus]

That's true.

[Kaslo]

That's true.

I have an affinity for Alternate Universes and Time Travel

Not going to lie, my favorite movie has always been Back to the Future, and TV Show Sliders.

[Hirronimus]

You must have jizzed over Flashpoint Paradox.

[Bukadan]

Go watch Predestination if you havent lol.

Please listen to this. Anyone who hasn't seen it, you'll appreciate it. Watch it in full.

[Qalbert]

i usually only watch 2/3 of a movie, but if you insist

2/3rds? What are you, insane? If the movie is longer than an hour I always leave the theatre no questions asked.

[Adajer]

I think Jay Garrick is Zoom.

or Hunter Zoloman (whichever persona he chooses to go with). "Jay Garrick" Could actually be Zoom and just fooling everyone and is Hunter Zoloman in E2. and/or he could have done the after image thing when he showed hunter to caitlyn.

Zoom's body matches Garrik's well imo.

[Urza!]

That just doesn't make sense because people on Earth 2 have seen Jay Garrick as their Flash fight Zoom, and lose his speed to Zoom. At least I got the impression that Zoom was as public with his defeat of JG as he was of Barry on Earth 1. If it does end up to be the case it really stretches the whole after-image 2 places at once thing a little too far, even for this show.

Best theories imo are Henry Allen or Wally West, and of those two I think the Henry Allen one works best. I also like the Earth 2 Hunter Zoloman theory mentioned earlier in this thread ( that the Zolomans adopted a different child since JGs parents never died and that Hunter is Zoom)

[Iono]

Earth 3! Not really defending him, but could be a possibility, no?

[Hirronimus]

Whatever happened to Barry's echo from Earth 1 in Season 1?

[Laugana]

You mean from when he went back in time after the tsunami? I presume he was 'absorbed' back into the Barry who went back in time /handwave

[Hirronimus]

Yeah, that guy.

[Deftscythe]

He just disappeared for no reason. The writers make up the time travel rules as they go along.

[Akiyama]

So. Good.

[Odesseiron]

Goddamn, what a fun episode. Those 40 minutes flew by.
