DC’s “Legends of Tomorrow” wrapped up its first season last night and the show went out with a bang. The Legends finally managed to defeat Vandal Savage and now that the Oculus has been destroyed the team has decided to take on the responsibility of maintaining the timeline. The finale also featured the first appearance from Rex Tyler (Hourman) on the show. He told the Legends that he had been sent by Rip Hunter himself and he also told them that he’s a member of the Justice Society of America.
“With his final words in the finale, he planted a pretty deep flag about where we’re headed in season two, which is not just introducing Hourman but introducing his teammates in the Justice Society of America,” executive producer Marc Guggenheim told The Hollywood Reporter when speaking about the finale. “For comic book fans, everyone knows the Justice Society is really the precursor to the Justice League, so it’s a pretty big move in our DC universe here on TV.”
Vandal Savage was a dangerous adversary for the Legends in season 1, but according to Marc Guggenheim we haven’t seen anything yet.
“The season two big bad is actually not going to be the [alien race of] Thanagarians,” Guggenheim explained. “It’s going to be something else entirely. All I’ll really say about the nemesis in season two is Vandal Savage looks like a walk in the park compared to what the Legends will be facing. This will be a much, much bigger threat. I’m going to leave it at that because when we do reveal it, it’s going to be pretty big. People will be asking, ‘Vandal who?’ once they get the full picture of what our team is up against. It’s going to be way bigger than what you can even imagine, I can guarantee it.”
DC’s “Legends of Tomorrow” will return in the fall for season 2.
