We finally saw the new Black Flash in both The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow. In case you forget, the Black Flash is actually Zoom who was taken away by time wraiths and we also saw his face disintegrate on the way.

Now, Zoom aka Black Flash is following Eobard Thawne aka Reverse Flash to take him back for trying to manipulate time.

Confused? Lucky for you, we are here to provide you with all the backstory you need to know about the Black Flash.

1. Black Flash is like Grim Reaper for speedsters and he has been employed by the Speed Force. Whenever he appears, a speedster dies
