Top 10 Best The Flash (2014) Characters

Barry Allen / The Flash

Honestly, while I get why a lot of people hate him because of what he did in Season 3, I don't know, I kind of liked him more? It added to his character and made him realistic in that situation.

He's such a great character. When people say that he was selfish for saving his mom, I'm just like everyone else would have done the same thing. Anyway, he is funny and smart.

I like Barry Allen, but he had a lot of ups and downs last season. Some people will say that's he growing into a superhero, and it's refreshing to see a hero of his status make mistakes. No way. When he went back to save his mom, I was really very angry. Not only did that just undo Season 1's finale, but he knows how detrimental messing with the past can be. It was selfish, and it made me rethink why I like Barry so much.

Cisco Ramon

Seriously? He's only #4? Sure, I will admit that Flash deserves a high spot, being the protagonist and all, but Cisco is just plain awesome! For one, he's an uber-geek, so he can be relatable to those who watch the show because they're one. Also, he has some of the BEST quotes of the series! "Are you Cloud City Vader-ing me right now?" is definitely one of my favorites.
I also love how he nicknames every metahuman, despite the others being occasionally annoyed by it. Even if someone else makes one, he critiques it as the unofficial expert. His quirks, personality, and relatability are all reasons Cisco is my favorite character of the series.

Caitlin Snow

She's smart and kind, even though she's lost a lot. People tend to forget that she's battling her own demons too. I'm glad to see her great character being appreciated.

She is sweet and caring. She is one of the best characters. I hope she can keep her cold powers and use them but not become Killer Frost.

Girlboss. She should be made "leader" of Team Flash if the directors wanted a woman to be the leader instead of Iris.

Dr. Harrison Wells

I absolutely loved his portrayal of Harrison Wells in Season 1. I know he just had the face of Harrison Wells, but for me, he was Harrison Wells.
The point is that the way he played the character of a mentor for Barry was awesome and couldn't have been done better.

Absolutely loved his character. I especially loved him in the first season.
I also enjoyed watching him as Harry Wells, but nothing can surpass his brilliant acting as a mentor for Barry in the first season.

Eobard Thawne? Harry? H.R.? Council of Wells? Which Harrison Wells? Eobard is evil, Harry is smart, H.R. has a bright mind, Council of Wells is helpless but also rarely helpful. That's all my thoughts on all the Wells.

Joe West

How is Joe below Iris? All Iris does is ruin stuff, lead the team into traps, and kiss Barry!

Joe's awesome, and his laugh is the best!

Iris West

Intuitive, curious, smart, and a perfect match for Barry!

Killer Frost

Killer Frost is a name used by several fictional supervillainesses appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The character first appeared in Firestorm #3 in 1978, and the identity has been used by Crystal Frost, Louise Lincoln, and Caitlin Snow. Killer Frost is typically portrayed as... read more

Tell me one time Flash has won against Killer Frost in a battle in this series.

The other half of Caitlin should not be named Killer Frost. Her name is just Frost. She is so amazing.

Leonard Snart / Captain Cold

QUOTE INCOMING! "There are only four rules you need to remember: make the plan, execute the plan, expect the plan to go off the rails, throw away the plan. Follow my lead and you'll be fine."

This guy is very likable! He has the best quotes!

"There are no strings on me!" I love this line!

Wally West

Wally West is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. He was the first Kid Flash and later became the third character to take on the mantle of the Flash. Wally is a founding member of the Teen Titans and has appeared in various animated and live-action adaptations... read more

QUOTE INCOMING! "It doesn't matter how many fall, for new heroes will always rise to carry on, bringing all their resources, skills, and talents to defeat the enemy."

He's the bravest character and wants to help people the most. He faced a meta before he had powers and saved The Flash.

Eobard Thawne

Reverse Flash is the fastest speedster and my favorite character from the show.

Becky Sharpe / Hazard

Cicada

Eddie Thawne

QUOTE INCOMING! "Nothing in the world was as beautiful to me as that tattoo, except the man bearing it."

Hunter Zolomon / Zoom

Very well-written character. He has a tragic past, which is understandable why he would be such a menacing character. He legit made a clown out of Barry by dragging his ass throughout Central City. That bullet-catching scene at CCPD is chef's kiss!

Pure evil, he ruined Barry's life and straight-up murdered his own dad in front of him.
He's really the best villain and a fantastic character.

Best season because of Zoom. They should now do more with Black Flash.

Jesse Wells

H.R. Wells (Earth-19)

He should be so much higher. I love H.R. His death was the saddest thing ever because of just how awesome a guy he was.

He should be higher. His death was one of the saddest deaths in TV shows.

Henry Allen

Atom Smasher

David Singh

Grateful for the umbrella term, every Harrison Wells should be tied for #1. Tom Cavanagh is the best actor on the show.
