As long-time viewers will recall, the Dr. Harrison Wells we first met wasn’t really Harrison Wells at all but was instead Thawne impersonating him in order to ultimately manipulate Barry.
Eobard Thawne, wearing Harrison Wells as a mask definitely makes the most formidable Trickster of all. If we're going for funniest and most entertaining overall, Mark Hamill FTW.
The episode revealed that when Eobard Thawne (the true name of Reverse-Flash) traveled back in time and became stranded, he took over Harrison Wells’ body.
I am thrilled that we didn't lose Tom Cavanaugh and wonder how the "real" Harrison Wells differs from Thawne pretending to be Wells. Hopefully, Henry isn't in prison either as I'd love for him to ...

We’ll meet the new Harrison Wells (and maybe a few more) when The Flash Season 6 arrives on Oct. 8. Mike Cecchini is the Editor in Chief of Den of Geek. You can read more of his work here.
Cavanagh, who has played Eobard Thawne/Reverse-Flash as well as the various versions of Harrison Wells, actually was slated to end his tenure as a series regular at the end of Season 6, I hear.
