The (almost) perfectly named Justice Leak is set to appear on CBS' DC Comics freshman drama Supergirl. According to EW, Leak will portray the villainous alien 'Hellgrammite', who looks like he'll cause Melissa Benoist's Supergirl plenty of problems early on into her crime-fighting career. He joins a number of DC villains already confirmed for the show, including 'Reactron' and 'Livewire'.

In the source material, Hellgrammite went by the name of 'Roderick Rose'. Rose was a entomologist who was subjected to a experiment that transformed him into a insectoid monster. However, given the involvement of the DEO on Supergirl, it makes sense that this version of Hellgrammite will have extraterrestrial origins. What do you think of the new villain? Sound off in the comments below!


Supergirl premieres Monday, October 26 on CBS.

Wow-- I almost wonder if they cast a guy named Justice Leak just to distract from the fact that they're using Hellgrammite, of all characters, on the show.

Then again, we ARE getting LiveWire, too-- so I've got no reason to complain!

They should bring in the villain Zorak from Space Ghost instead. Then you can bring in more of Space Ghost's villains.

I thought it hadn't been established as to whether Livewire would be a villain or not.
