Who is a better reverse flash, Eobard Thawne or Daniel West? yes we may barely start out seeing Daniel West's origin story, can we relate to Eobard Thawne's origin in the 25th century? who's story is better? who's has more hate for the flash? who's costume is better? if they ever got in a fight who would win? and most important, who can play a better flash?

"Who is a better reverse flash?"

In my opinion:

Hunter Zolomon. Daniel West is second, and Thawne is third.

"who's story is better?"

Hunter Zolomon. His backstory is the best. His motivation for becoming a profiler, his ex-wife Ashley, his friendship with Wally West.

"who's has more hate for the flash?"

Eobard Thawne. Zolomon was actually friends with Wally, and in his own psycho way, only wants to make him better, he doesn't hate him. Danny West has nothing personal against Barry Allen so far, he just happen to stand in his way. Thawne in the other hand irrationaly hates the Flash (his sole motivation for doing what he does).

"who's costume is better?"

Daniel West. But Zolomon and Thawne's costumes are very cool too.

"if they ever got in a fight who would win?"

I have no idea.

"who can play a better flash?"

You mean, who could become a better hero? Daniel West, because he is a West!

Or who can mess more with the Flash's head? Thawne and Zolomon, Thawne because he hates Barry, so will try to kill Barry's loved ones and Zolomon because he wants to make Wally better... by killing his loved ones and making him understand tragedy.

I've always had a soft spot for Eobard whenever it came to the reverse Flash family, his hatred was so raw and I loved it.

Excited to see more of Daniel West as the Reverse Flash though, plus his costume is FANTASTIC.

I have a strong feeling that DC is going to separate the persona's of "Reverse-Flash" and "Professor Zoom" so that they are two separate beings with two different names rather than one villain with multiple names. If I'm right, I like my idea better.

So, since I convinced myself that is what DC is doing, I can't really answer....but I'll try...

I agree with all of this.

@csguterres:

"Who is a better reverse flash?"

Thawne obviously. Daniel is just... no. He's a non-issue at this point.

"who's story is better?"

Thawne's. Better in terms of raw emotion than anything provided by Daniel West. Sure Thawne is petty for his hatred of the Flash, irrational as it may be, but there is so much more there than anything that Daniel is capable of.

"who's has more hate for the flash?"

Thawne yet again. His main reason for coming back was to kill the Flash, his main reason for anything he does is just to cause Barry as much misery as possible with the hopes of being able to kill him someday.

"who's costume is better?"

I'm a fan of Daniels red and black motif, much as I hate to say it. HOWEVER. Thawne's New 52 look is much sleeker, deadlier and more amazing all around than even his original costume is, so I'll have to give it to Thawne again on this one.

"if they ever got in a fight who would win?"

Thawne hands down. He has much more experience with the Speed Force, has studied it extensively, can manipulate it to his will and is faster than Daniel has ever shown. Thawne wins this one easy.

"who can play a better flash?"

And again Thawne, mostly because he's the polar opposite of Barry in everything. He's made it his life's mission to be the reverse of Barry, to kill him and cause him misery. So Thawne once more.

TL;DR: Daniel's a chump compared to the original.
