![]() Įventually, Thawne became a member of the Secret Society. At some point, Thawne lost his powers, but was able to regain them. One of Thawne's battles with the Flash landed the pair in the distant past. Following Barry's apparent death during a multiversal crisis, Thawne tried to pose as him again, to trick his successor Wally. Thawne tried to disrupt Barry and Iris' wedding day by posing as Barry, though his deceit was discovered. He trained the pair and later had them fight their father and lay waste to Central City. Thawne also saved Barry and Iris West's children, the Tornado Twins Don Allen and Dawn Allen, from the Dominators, and then used the Negative Speed Force to turn them against their father. Thawne then killed Jorge Heart, the brother of Barry's future friend August Heart, who would as a result go on to become Godspeed. To create more speedster foes for the Flash Family, Thawne gave The Clown the gun with which he killed Hunter Zolomon's father-in-law, leading to Zolomon eventually becoming Zoom. Barry's father Henry was falsely accused and sentenced for the crime, leaving the future Flash without his parents. Sometime after defeating Paradox, Thawne went back in time and murdered Barry's mother Nora. Nevertheless, Thawne was unable to let go of his vendetta, and sought to destroy Barry's life by changing the past and the future. Reverse-Flash about to kill Flash's mother Early Villainous Career Changing the Timeline Commander Cold called Thawne defeating Paradox his one good deed. For once in his life, people saw Thawne as a worthy successor to the Flash. He then rescued the civilians trapped in the wreckage, repaired the Flash Museum and worked with the Renegades and the Time Institute to create a special prison for Paradox in Iron Heights. ![]() While Paradox beat the Renegades, Thawne defeated him with the aid of his lightning rod weapon, which he used to ground Paradox and deplete him of his paradox energy. When Paradox attempted to take over the 25th Century, Thawne and the Renegades fought him. ![]() Believing that tormenting Barry is the only time that Barry will spend with him, Thawne made it his life's mission to ensure that the Flash lived in pain like he did, until his idol learned to treat him specially and see him as his "real" friend. Creating his own Negative Speed Force and switching his emblem, Thawne became the Reverse-Flash. Running back to the 25th Century, to the Flash Museum, it was there that Thawne realized his destiny, including his multiple future deaths. However, after witnessing Barry give Wally West a watch with the same advice he gave Eobard years ago inscribed, an enraged Thawne realized that he wasn't as special to Barry as he thought. Deeming it arrogant to think he was ready to become the Flash, he changed his costume to yellow, because it was the color that all the hero's partners wore. Wanting to show Barry his rehabilitation and to be accepted again by his "best friend", Thawne traveled back in time to the 21st Century. He convinced the authorities that society would be better if he was educating others as a professor instead of being behind bars, and worked hard from being a tour guide at the Flash Museum to becoming its curator, considering the museum his own. In prison, he underwent electroshock therapy and shared his knowledge with other inmates. Desperate to prove himself to his hero, Thawne vowed to better himself. Unfortunately for Eobard, Barry became aware of the truth behind his "heroics", and would turn him in to the authorities after defeating the rogue speedster. Thawne was awestruck when Barry arrived in his time and taught him new ways to use his powers, with the two also bonding over their shared belief that "every second is a gift". However, due to the lack of opportunities for heroics in the future, Thawne instead created his own by endangering and then "saving" people to make himself look a hero. Dissatisfied, Thawne sought to also become a hero like the Flash. During his adulthood, Thawne miraculously received a time capsule containing the Flash's costume, from which he harnessed residual traces of the Speed Force to give himself access to its powers. Eobard would dedicate his life to studying the Flash and researching his power source, the Speed Force. In his loneliness, he became obsessed with the Flash, Barry Allen, a heroic speedster from the 21st Century. From the 25th Century, Eobard Thawne was an only child when his parents were killed in an accident.
