Legends of Tomorrow season two has been slowly putting together the Justice Society of America for a while now, and Comic Book Resources reveals that the latest addition is Lance Henriksen (The Terminator) as Obsidian. Introduced in the pages of All-Star Squadron #25 in 1983, the character became part of the JSA in 2007 and has the ability to merg with his own shadow so he can fly, pass through solid objects, and even possess other people's shadows (making him pretty formidable). 

The version of the team we'll see in Legends of Tomorrow includes Patrick J. Adams as Hourman, Maisie Richardson-Sellers as Vixen, Matthew MacCaull as Commander Steel, and Sarah Grey as Stargirl.

In other DC TV news, Andrew Kreisberg revealed at today's TCA panel that one of the characters in this world will be coming out at some point later this year. Greg Berlanti meanwhile added: "It is a significant character. The only reason we wouldn’t [say now] is we really want the audience to enjoy the character developments, not necessarily be ahead of the storyline." Who do you think it will be?

So Obsidian is basically the Alan Scott of the JSA?

If my memory serves correctly, Obsidian is Todd Rice, and is Alan Scott's kid. Obsidian is also openly gay, or at least was Pre-52.

Hopefully Obsidian goes back in time and gets to see his dad and mom, now that would be an interesting family reunion. Before people say Alan Scott is now gay, you have to remember the WW2 one wasn't and Alan Scott of the New 52 is just one of the many Alan Scott's that exist in the multiverse.

I love Lance Henrikson but I kind of wish he was playing a better character. I am sure he will be great though because Lance is a great actor.
