LEGENDS OF TOMORROW Concept Art Officially Released; Showrunner Reveals New Details

No, that's not the Human Torch in the teaser image; it's Firestorm! He finally gets a costume in this officially released piece of concept art for DC's Legends of Tomorrow, while showrunner Phil Klemmer talks about the team dynamic and their battle against Vandal Savage...

DC's Legends of Tomorrow launches in 2016 and focuses on time traveller Rip Hunter assembling a team of future legends to protect the time stream from the villainous Vandal Savage. Talking to EW, showrunner Phil Klemmer says that they're most definitely not the "Legends" the title implies at this point. "They’re screwups. Instead of tiptoeing through history, they’re plodding through it, leaving their footprints and fingerprints and constantly having to wonder whether they’re going to screw the future up rather than fix it… It’s going to be total madness." That's apparent from the concept art above, but just how much damage to the timeline will these guys do? 
 
Well, it sounds like at least some of the team will actually use their trips through time to alter their fates, something some of the slightly more villainous members - Captain Cold and Heat Wave for example - will no doubt be taking advantage of. "Who can resist the urge to correct the past or to investigate the future?" Klemmer asks. "The idea of traveling through time has a caper quality to it, and that’s what we’re looking forward to. Yes, there will be the big ‘try to stop Vandal Savage’ [plot], but people will inevitably become diverted on their little side missions and when people are trying to fix their own timeline, that’s when you really start screwing things up."

If you can't see the difference in quality between this version of the concept art and the scanned one which was previously posted, buy a pair of glasses.

Captain Cold's acting is somewhat bad. Still so pumped for this

Looks little messy, I hope they use less CGI smartly, and polish it properly instead of adding more subpar CGI elements. Excited for this show.

Technically, that is the Human Torch in the teaser image. I instantly recognized it as this Adi Granov Human Torch picture and if you look at both, they match exactly.

They probably didn't intend for this concept art to be released as an official image since it's pretty sloppy. The Human Torch's head doesn't line up well with Firestorm's shoulders and it looks like the Atom has two faces

If Daredevil feels more Batman than all the DC shows (live-action). Then Legends of Tomorrow (especially from this concept art) feels more Avengers than all the Marvel shows.

I like that the TV shows are selling themselves differently than the block-buster movies.

I hope this show will be good and I hope Atom's bro Hawkman shows up too. I really want to see Firestorm in the DCCU and with him getting shown here it's a great way to get people to know more about him, before his big screen version.

CW is such a cheap ass piece of crap network, they constantly rip-off everything in order to be similar to the movies but their budget doesn't allow them to do a 100-th of what they want. They lack self awareness to see that...

An editor needs to be fired for letting this slip through. If this is offical I think Mar el may have a lawsuit...

Captain Cold's acting is one of the BEST parts of the show. Period. What do you want? A regular, run of the mill performance? Let's have the Joker behave like Agent 47, then. He should be totally professional.

Soooo basically what this looks like is DC vs Robots? So all the DCFans who hate on the Avengers for fighting Robots will now be like, "Awesome, fighting Robot's are only cool on TV Shows!"
