Biography
Dr. Edward Clariss was the college professor of Jay Garrick. Clariss was seriously injured one day when the Flash did not save him from a criminal metahuman. He was paralyzed from the waist down. Clariss began to hate the Flash for not saving him, and started working on experiments to not only regain the ability of his legs, but also get the Flash's powers. One day he was working on an experiment with a tachyon reactor when the singularity from Earth-1 opened. When the singularity closed, an energy wave was let out that hit Clariss and the tachyon reactor. When he woke up, he realized that he had the ability to slow down time within his reference frame, essentially making him a speedster. However, he can only run within his slow reference frame, as he is still paralyzed in real time.

Abilities

Trivia

 * In the comics, Hunter Zolomon was the character who used the name "Zoom" as well as had the ability to slow down time within his mental reference frame. He was the archenemy of Wally West, who was the Flash at the time.
 * In the comics, Dr. Clariss was known as "The Rival" and was the archenemy of Jay Garrick, like in the show. However, in the comics Clariss was connected to the Speed Force, and he wore a costume almost identical to that of Garrick's.
 * Clariss's costume seems to reference several things from the comics and other Flash media. His blue lightning aura seems to be a reference to the future Barry Allen from the New 52. His dark blurry costume seems to be a reference to Clariss's original appearance in the comics. His blue Flash costume seems to reference the character Pollux from the original Flash TV show, in which the character was a clone of Barry Allen.
