The Flash Season 2: 7 Theories On Zoom's True Identity

Whom is coming?

"Kill The Flash." Zoom is coming, and he has Barry Allen firmly in his sights. Jay Garrick has arrived from Earth-2 to warn Barry and the STAR Labs team of an impending threat, and at New York Comic-Con a sizzle reel was unveiled which confirmed that it was indeed Zoom he'd been fighting in his own dimension, and now he's on his way to Earth-1. He was the one who sent Edge, sorry, Atom-Smasher after Barry in the Season 2 premiere, and is going to be sending a number of other metahumans to try and carry out his mission as well. Borrowing a line from Marvel's big villain, you suspect he's going to have to do it himself. We do know that Zoom will be another speedster, one who is obsessed with being the only one around in any dimension. He wants to be the Fastest Man Alive, and eliminate the competition. We also know that he'll be voiced by Tony Todd (the Candyman from the film of the same name), and he sounds suitably menacing from the little that's been revealed so far. However, the keyword there is 'voiced'. While it'll be Todd providing the vocals, the actual physical identity of the character is very much being kept a mystery, leading to a lot of speculation and theorising as to exactly who it'll be. Will it be a new character, or could it be someone we already know pretty well?
