List of The Flash characters

[1] Iris Ann West-Allen (portrayed by Candice Patton; seasons 1–9) is a reporter and the daughter of Joe, the wife of Barry, and head of Central City Citizen Media.

Eddie is disillusioned that Iris may eventually marry Barry until a conversation with Martin Stein when he realizes the future is not set and chooses to stop the Reverse-Flash by sacrificing himself to erase Eobard from the timeline, and his body is sucked into a wormhole.

After regaining his memories, Eddie gets manipulated into believing that he lost his chance for a family with Iris and is tempted as a new avatar for the Negative Speed Force, calling himself Cobalt Blue.

[17] Clifford DeVoe / Thinker (portrayed by Neil Sandilands; season 4) is a mild-mannered professor and metahuman with superhuman intelligence, who seeks to fix all that he deems wrong with humanity.

At the end of the series, it is revealed that cosmic energy from the black hole bonded with him and that his genes contain a Consciousness-Honed Universally Neutralized Kerr anomaly, making him a metahuman.

Oliver Queen / Green Arrow / Spectre (portrayed by Stephen Amell;[37] seasons 1–6 and 9) is a former-playboy billionaire and politician who operates as a vigilante in Star City and is a friend of Barry Allen's.

Tina McGee (portrayed by Amanda Pays;[52] seasons 1–2) is a friend of Harrison Wells (Earth-1 version), she is the director of Mercury Labs and the designer of the tachyon devices which allows any object to move at the speed of light.

Henry is released from prison due to Thawne's confession to Nora's murder, but leaves Central City to seek a reclusive life as he believes that his presence could hold back Barry's duties as the Flash.

Grodd later returns and mind-controls Cisco Ramon and Killer Frost into stealing Tanya Lamden's telepathy crown in his plot to take control of Central City's minds.

With help from the Flash and XS, King Shark defeats Grodd and removes the telepathy crown from him and he is placed in a medically induced coma in a special cell that would adapt to his growing mental powers.

Part of the mystery of the season is who or what is underneath the Zoom outfit, and so we wanted to do something like James Earl Jones as Darth Vader — this iconic voice coming out of this mask.

"[66] Hunter was a traumatized child (portrayed by Octavian Kaul[67]) that witnessed his mother's murder at his father's hands, which triggered his bloodlust as a serial killer before he gained his speedster abilities from the particle-accelerator explosion on Earth-2.

After succeeding in stealing Barry's speed, Zoom brings his army of Earth-2 metahumans to conquer Earth-1 and construct a device capable of destroying the other Earths in the multiverse, to ensure he remains the only speedster.

Hunter Zolomon held him captive in a failed attempt to harness his speed before being inspired to take up his name and persona to falsely operate as the Flash of Earth-2.

Patty Spivot (portrayed by Shantel VanSanten; season 2) is Joe West's new protégée and partner, a member of the metahuman task force at CCPD along with Cisco Ramon, and a love interest of Barry Allen.

Patty later tricks Barry into revealing his Flash persona to her as she departs Central City, making him confront her in a train, after a faux attack, where they say goodbye seemingly ending their relationship on good terms.

Julian Albert Desmond / Alchemy (portrayed by Tom Felton, voiced by Tobin Bell; season 3) is a scientist and fellow CSI at the CCPD who came from a prosperous old English family.

Dr. Carla Tannhauser (portrayed by Susan Walters; seasons 3, 5–6 and 8) is Caitlin's estranged mother, Thomas Snow's wife, a biomedical engineer, and CEO of a major research company.

But as Clifford's original personality begins to be replaced by one of increasing cruelty and arrogance, Marlize comes to realize that the husband she loved was gone and helps Team Flash defeat DeVoe in the final battle.

Grace Gibbons (portrayed by Islie Hirvonen as a pre-teen, Sarah Carter as an adult; season 5) is the orphaned niece of Orlin Dwyer who lost her parents in a metahuman incident.

Later, when Nora West-Allen (XS) enters Grace's mind, it is revealed that she is consciously aware of what's happening despite her comatose state because a tiny shard from the satellite affected her brain; turning her into a metahuman and forming a mental barrier to prevent further invasions.

The adult Grace comes from a future where metahumans thrive, so she has taken up the mantle of Cicada upon awaking from her coma to complete her uncle's mission of killing them all, serving as one of the two main antagonists of season five.

Bloodwork transformed into a blood monster to fight the Flash in retaliation, but he is trapped in a special machine previously used to contain Chester Runk's black hole-based powers before remanding him to A.R.G.U.S.

Afterwards, she made minor reappearances during a criminal gala held by Remington Meister, attacking Sue Dearbon for stealing a diamond with information on Black Hole, and being swayed to Eva McCulloch's side alongside Doctor Light and Sunshine.

After mentioning how she unintentionally mimicking the heat abilities of a barista on the ice coffee she ordered while explaining how she can't control it, Barry learns that she has a hard time asking for help.

Originally a social aid health worker who is working hard to overcome a dark past as she helps the underprivileged in Central City, she assumes the form of a hulking female who kills Abra Kabadra.

Originally a teenage football star who got a salesman job following a career-ending move, he uses his time abilities to relive his past before being convinced to stop by Chester and Cisco.

In a black flame form, he was responsible for killing Stan Mullins, Donna Winters, Caitlin's yoga teacher Parker DeStefano, Colin Smith, Megan Landa, and Veronica Binning where they each suffered a grief.

She recruited the Rogues to help solidify her and resolved to build a Cosmic Treadmill so she could return home, going so far as to threaten Iris's life to ensure Flash's compliance.

Dina Meyer makes an uncredited vocal cameo in "Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part Three"; reprising her role as Barbara Gordon / Oracle from Birds of Prey.
