A New Superhero Emerges In LEGENDS OF TOMORROW Season 2, Episode 3 Description; "Shogun"
One of the newest additions to the cast of Legends of Tomorrow gains powers in the second season's third episode, while a member of the Justice Society of America also ends up joining the team...
As expected, Dr. Nate Heywood, a historian whose grandfather was Commander Steel, will indeed become Citizen Steel in Legends of Tomorrow season two. His powers will first emerge in "Shogun," but he's not the only character with ties to the Justice Society of America to show up in this episode.
As you can see below, Vixen looks set to join the team after hitching a ride along with the team. That's not the only interesting development here though as it seems like the episode will push the story along. There's still no mention of the villainous Legion of Doom however which seems strange.
SECRETS AND NEW FOUND POWERS — Nate (Nick Zano) is shocked to learn that he has powers but then accidentally lands himself and Ray (Brandon Routh) in Feudal Japan. After Sara (Caity Lotz) convinces their stowaway Amaya (Maisie Richardson-Sellers), AKA Vixen, that Rory (Dominic Purcell) is not a murderer, they all agree to find Nate and help him master his powers in order to defend the Japanese village from the Shogun and his army of samurai warriors. Meanwhile, Jax (Franz Drameh) and Stein (Victor Garber) stay back to help fix the ship and find a secret compartment but decide not to tell the rest of the team what they learn. Kevin Tancharoen directed the episode written by Phil Klemmer & Grainne Godfree.
