This is confusing because last season's villain, Reverse-Flash, has also gone by Professor Zoom in DC Comics. One of them, of course, is this new big bad, Zoom.

Though we're only one episode into the the season, The Flash is already establishing the characters who will be important until the end. For example, is new villain Zoom the the same person as Professor Zoom? Now with Season 2, The Flash is setting up a whole new villain once again, and I'm already wondering how it will play with the mythology this time. Then Harrison Wells actually turned out to be Eobard Thawne, and that threw us for a completely new loop. We saw this early on in Season 1, when the series introduced Eddie Thawne and everyone (including myself) had a collective meltdown trying to figure out just who he was, and what connection he had to Eobard Thawne. The Flash is not afraid to mess around with its characters.
