Hunter Zolomon

Hunter Zolomon, also known as Reverse-Flash or Zoom, is a major antagonist in the DC Comics universe. He was the main antagonist of the Blitz and Flash War story arcs as well as one of the two main antagonists (alongside Professor Zoom) of both Rogue War and Rebirth (2009). He's one of the four arch-nemeses (alongside Vandal Savage, Captain Cold and Abra Kadabra) of Wally West, and also serves as an enemy of Barry Allen. He was a former F.B.I. Profiler that became paralyzed by an attack caused by Gorilla Grodd, due to this he asked Wally West if he can use the Cosmic Treadmill to gain motor functions but he was denied. He became delusional and attempted to use it, which caused it to explode.

He was able to regain the ability the walk and obtain powers similar to the speedsters but due to his distorted mind, he believed that Wally West couldn't help him because he never experienced . He thought the only way to get Wally to be a better hero was to be his greatest enemy, becoming the second Reverse-Flash and tormented him. He then lost his ability to walk again before gaining the Speed Force again, later reforming and sacrifice himself to save Wally West from the Black Flash and repair the Speed Force barrier that was caused by Thawne.
