Check Out 'Legend Of Tomorrow's Hawkgirl & Hawkman
DC Comics is swiftly taking over your television screen, one character at a time. Series like Arrow and The Flash have really taken off and the grand poobah Legends of Tomorrow just keeps getting more exciting. Two more superheroes are going to debut this fall in a crossover episode of Arrow and The Flash — Hawkman and Hawkgirl. Once they've made their mark with fans, they'll be joining full force with Legends of Tomorrow. Their first task will be to take on the brutal and immortal villain Vandal Savage. Just based on his name alone, you know Hawkman and Hawkgirl are going to have their work cut out for them as the new kids on the block.
The new winged crusaders will join the ranks of Firestorm, The Atom, White Canary, Rip Hunter, Captain Cold, and Heatwave. With their powers combined, the Legends of Tomorrow are an unstoppable force. Executive Producer Greg Berlanti is excited about how different all of these heroes are and what their chemistry will be like when they're thrown together, "That's the fun of it...You want that Rat Pack-y kind of vibe of all this crew hanging out, as disparate and as different as they are.”
