Flash Season Two

[wise guy]

This is very similar to Batman vs. Bane( Knightfall) comic even down to the paralysis.
Zoom also has some of Spiderman's villan Venom maybe an alien symbiote costume.
I don't think Zoom is Earth 2 Barry ,Eddie, or Wells because is he is thicker in frame
probably Henry Allen .I like the idea that he was an alternate Earth Flash that
turned evil and want's revenge on other speedsters .

Let me ratchet this idea up one more level of fanboy cool . . . Zoom would be Barry (Gustin) from the parallel earth gone bad and Henry Allen (Shipp) from that world shows up in Shipp's old Flash costume, explaining how he was the Flash on that world and his son Barry took up the mantle but was somehow corrupted, then Barry gets to team up with his dad and we get a moment close to seeing Barry and Wally together in the comics.

Won't happen, as I'm guessing Shipp is Zoom (his eyes and build struck me that way last night), but that would be something to see . . .

This episode was season finale worthy! WOW! Very Knightfall-esque. In the the comics, Bane even took Batman into downtown Gotham and dumped his body, kind of like Zoom parading Barry's body around town.

I read a theory that Shipp IS Zoom...but not how you think. The theory was Zoom was unmasked, and when they saw Shipp's face, Barry thought it was his dad. Cisco corrects him and says he's the Earth-Two Henry Allen. Then Jay or Wells corrects THEM and says no....he's a parallel world version of Barry Allen....meaning Barry from the OLD TV SERIES!!!

This theory would make both popular guesses work (he's Henry/he's Barry), plus bring Shipp back as HIS Barry Allen, somehow gone to the dark side.

I read this over at the Back Issue Facebook page, and it blew my fanboy mind.

And I just develop a bigger and bigger fanboy crush on Patty every time I see her! That Grant Gustin is one lucky *******!! LOL!!

I also think the actress who plays Patty is hot as heck too...when I first saw her...the first thing that I instantly thought...hey...she could've made a nice Supergirl as well...

Next week...GRODD!

[Earth 2 Chris]

I really like Patty too, but I fear for her future...

Likewise, especially if she also discovers that Barry is The Flash.

[Nostalgiabuff]

she is definitely really cute and yeah, I guess she has to get killed off so Barry can get back with Iris

[Earth 2 Chris]

^Yeah...I don't need to have Barry with Iris. They did a 180 with Iris and saved her from the fate of Lana Lang. I like the character now, and the actress is charming. But, I still can't get past the ick factor of her being Barry's "sister". I mean Patty referred to Joe as being Barry's "dad'. That just ain't right!

And I live in Kentucky!

The actress playing Iris is hot...but I find her annoying (yeah, I know, I keep mentioning this, lol).

The Star Labs scientist chick is not as hot...but I find her super pleasant and charming.

...and Patty, well...she's both hot and adorable...so she's my favorite female character right now, lol.

But even if Iris was charming...as you said, she's still Barry's "sister", yeah, obviously not biological...but adopted siblings getting it on is still creepy...ha...

^There's also an Elseworlds annual where Wall is crippled:



And Barry was crippled in the original Flashpoint mini-series :

One thing is for sure... Zoom's mask is deliberately hiding someone we would otherwise likely be able to identity if we saw the nose and mouth portion. So it's going to be a great revelation when they get to that moment. Poor Barry! What a beat down he took. But that was done so well. Even my wife was on the edge of her seat. Outside of my wife watching Days religiously, this is the only show we DVR and watch every single week with great anticipation. The writing and acting is just excellent. It really hits all the right buttons and my wife is not even a comic book fan.

[palitoy]

The show is a big hit for the CW and it's no surprise considering it's the only show we watch as a family. Loved it this week, they're really building Zoom up to be a complete monster.
