I’m reasonably certain that #5 and #6 are the same. ---

No, Prof. Zoom is another alias of Reverse Flash, Eobard Thawne. Zoom is another villain entirely, Hunter Zoloman, though influenced by Prof. Zoom. And, on checking, I see Zoloman is also credited as being the second Reverse Flash, so there’s that. ---

> **[Eobard Thawne](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eobard_Thawne)** > > Eobard Thawne, also known as the Reverse-Flash and Professor Zoom, is a supervillain appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. Created by John Broome and Carmine Infantino, the character first appeared in The Flash #139 (September 1963) and has since endured as the archenemy of Barry Allen / The Flash. Thawne is the first and most well-known character to assume the Reverse-Flash mantle, and is additionally a descendant of Malcolm Thawne and ancestor of Bart Allen, Thaddeus T In hi... His aliases are listed as “Zoom” as well as “Professor Zoom.” It’s confusing, because Golden-Age Flash also had a villain called “Reverse-Flash.” EDIT: I see I parroted your earlier statement WRT Hunter Zoloman. ---
