The Flash Season 2: 15 WTF Moments From 'Flash Back'

By Andrew Pollard / June 24, 2016

6. More Speedsters

With Wells now on to future Barrys plan, and essentially looking to help him, he discusses the Time Wraith that has followed Barry.

Now whilst the whole Time Wraith concept or, yknow, Black Flash is great to see play out on the small screen, what was just as interesting was a throwaway line from Wells regarding other speedsters.

Of course, the show has already introduced Barry Allen/The Flash, Eobard Thawne/Reverse-Flash, Jay Garrick/Hunter Zoloman/Zoom, and Eliza Harmon/Trajectory, plus Wally West and Jesse Quick two comic book speedsters but could it be that there are even more speedsters out there? It certainly looks like it.

In the comic book realm, there are a whole load of other speedsters out there, so it remains to be seen which ones of those we see turn up at some point in the shows future.
