 * HistoryText            = Zoom is a maniacal super-speedster from Earth-2, intent on stealing the speed of all speedsters. He masqueraded as "Jay Garrick", the Flash of Earth-2, to gain Flash (Barry Allen)'s trust.

Origin
Hunter Zolomon, a convicted serial killer, was going through electroshock therapy when Earth-2 Harrison Wells' particle accelerator exploded underground. This connected him to the Speed Force, and he escaped. Zolomon killed some police officers and left one to tell the story. The one police officer said he saw a man "zooming", giving Zolomon the alias of Zoom. Zoom later killed the police officer in his house.

Hateful of the world around him for being alone and miserable his whole life, Hunter Zolomon has took on two identities. He pretended to be Jay Garrick, the Flash, to give people hope, and his own archenemy, Zoom, to rip this hope away from them. As Zoom, he created a group of meta-humans under his command, let by Reverb, Cisco Ramon of Earth-2. Zoom and Reverb would command the meta-human criminals, while the Flash would fight them, only to be bested by the much faster Zoom. Interested in further increasing his speed, Hunter Zolomon started to use the Velocity serums that he engineered with his knowledge of chemistry. The serums worked, however, not without the unwanted side-effects. While Velocity increased Zoom's speed greatly, giving his Speed Force lightning a blue color, it also caused cellular degeneration. Without additional Speed Force in his organism, Zolomon would soon die. An opportunity for restoration presented itself in form of breaches to Earth-1 opening after the confrontation between Barry Allen and Eobard Thawne. Zoom realized what he needed to do to save his life and started the invasion of the other Earth with his obedient meta-humans. While Zoom's "breachers" fought the Flash, forcing him to improve his abilities, especially his speed, Hunter Zolomon masqueraded as Jay Garrick to gain the trust of Barry Allen, becoming his mentor, as well Caitlin Snow, the creator of Velocity 9, with whom Hunter has fallen in love.
