"For Season 2 of Legends, we decided that the perfect antagonist for TV's first-ever team of Super Heroes would be TV's first-ever team of Super-Villains," executive producer Marc Guggenheim said. "[We] recruited from the ranks of Arrow and The Flash's deadliest adversaries. Being huge fans of the Challenge of the Superfriends -- we've come to call this group our 'Legion of Doom.'"

If it took the crew of the Waverider an entire season to defeat Vandal Savage (Casper Crump) -- how will they handle this crew?

Luckily, they'll have some help. It turns out that Rex Tyler aka Hourman (Patrick J. Adams) isn't the only Justice Society of America member set to show up on Legends. Some of the yet-to-be-cast characters include Obsidian, Stargirl and Dr. Mid-Nite.
