Last night, news broke that DC Universe's Stargirl had added Joel McHale as Sylvester Pemberton, a.k.a. Starman, and now we have word on another classic DC Comics character that'll be joining the show.

According to TV Line, Lou Ferrigno Jr. - son of the original Incredible Hulk actor - has signed on for the the recurring guest star role of Golden Age JSA founding member Rex Tyler, a.k.a. Hourman.

The character is described as "a master chemist and adrenaline junkie who as Hourman is a thrill-seeking superhero with the ability to manifest super-strength… for one hour a day."

Stargirl follows high school sophomore Courtney Whitmore (School of Rock and All Night‘s Brec Bassinger) as she inspires an unlikely group of young heroes to stop the villains of the past. This new drama will reimagine Stargirl and the very first superhero team, the Justice Society of America, in an unpredictable series.

Wonder if the Arrowverse Stargirl will appear in Crisis.

His dad was the best part of Pumping Iron, especially the scene when he's doing the shoulder presses screaming "ARNOLD!" I love the schlub curling 5 lb dumbbells in the background.

@blackandyellow - That is a really good documentary. I enjoyed it -- I hadn't seen it until recently. Ferrigno is pretty awesome.

He was one of the funniest characters in I Love You, Man.
