Harrison Sherloque Wells

"I'm a detective. I see mystery everywhere."

- Sherloque Wells to Barry Allen

Harrison Sherloque Wells is an alternate version of Harrison Wells from Earth-221, who works as a detective.

Early life
At some point in his adulthood, Sherloque married seven times, twice to the same woman, leaving the status of his seventh marriage currently unknown. His third ex-wife was from Earth-38, the same Earth of Supergirl and Superman.

Career as multiversal detective
At some point, Sherloque began his career as a detective.

At some point, he chased a serial killer named Mad Hatter with his partner Watsune until he finds out with the memory machine that his fourth wife was cheating on him with his partner. After arguing with his partner he lets him go chasing the Mad Hatter alone and later find him attached to the memory machine brain-dead.

At some point after this, Sherloque was hired multiple times to find the identity of "Cicada" through the multiverse. According to him, it was always David Hersch. Due to his skills, Sherloque eventually was known by Harrison Wolfgang Wells, the Harrison Wells of Earth-12.

Helping Team Flash
Earth-1 Flash and his team hired him as a suggestion by Harrison Wolfgang Wells, after Cisco Ramon opened a portal to take Sherloque to Earth-1. Sherloque could make conclusions from everyone: that Cisco was heartbroken for his break-up with Cynthia, that Barry Allen was the main speedster of Earth-1, that Nora was Iris' daughter and that Iris removed a tattoo of a former lover. He asked for a fee.

First they found a David Hersch, who set a bomb in a warehouse (which Wells discerns at once to be a decoy trap, nearly costing Nora her life when multiple similar bombs popped up around of her, had Barry not been warned in time), but he was different from Cicada. Cisco demanded a refund, but he no longer had the money because he invested it to pay the alimony of his ex-wives.

He pretended to have been burned to ashes by a reactor on the Pipeline, but Cisco revealed that the explosion would be worse if the reactor exploded and told Barry to search for him in S.T.A.R. Labs. Barry found him and ran him to the Pipeline. He then pretended to be surprised by his own death, but he admitted that he did it and revealed he did the same to get rid of himself off his fourth and sixth wife which was the same woman.

Later, he was seen pondering on his own when Nora approached him, asking if he has seen her purse. After pointing out where he last saw the accessory and then detailed Nora's conducts thus far into the past into which she time-traveled, namely her intervention when she helped her father destroy the S.T.A.R. Labs satellite. Sherloque then blithely asked the female speedster if she came to decide on that last part all on her own, to which Nora balked on an answer, unable to reply. Sherloque then dismissed the thought, surmising that Nora did that on her own accord, as her moniker, XS, was definitive for that kind of behavior. Nora agreed and without further ado, took her leave. As she left though, Wells cast a glance on her departing form, implying that he may have gleaned more than he let on about the speedster from the future.

Personality
Sherloque is a very arrogant and smug man, as he takes great pride in his abilities as a detective and the reputation he has earned throughout the multiverse and just as easily scoffs at other's opinions that contradict his views. At the same time, while a very insightful and methodical man, he prefers to take a quick and easy way to dealing with things as after one idea proved accurate enough times, he simply assumes that it will always work and will just recycle the same idea. He is also shown to be rather unscrupulous and when things get too difficult, he will attempt to sneak away, as he even faked his death to get away from paying alimony to his ex-wives.

At the same time, Sherloque is not without an honorable side. While confident in his instincts and usually convinced that he is in the right direction, he is willing to admit to when he has made a mistake and likewise give credit where credit is due as he openly applauded Ralph in finding an important clue on Cicada's identity.

Sherloque has been married seven times (twice to the same woman), which is later revealed to be due to them all resembling his first wife. He tells a very confused Nora that "[they're] the only woman for me", showing a bizarre romantic side. He later meets the Earth-1 doppelganger Renee Adler, whom he immediately becomes smitten with thanks to Nora manipulations per Eobard's suggestion.
