‘DC’s Legends of Tomorrow’ season 2 recently unveiled a new extended trailer. It hinted at a 4-way crossover episode featuring the appearance of members of the Justice Society of America and their villainous counterpart, the Legion of Doom.

According to Den of Geek, the upcoming season of ‘DC’s Legends of Tomorrow’ has released an extended trailer ahead of the October 13 debut of season 2’s episode 1 entitled “Out of Time”. The series airs on The CW and is intended as a spin-off of other DC series on the network namely ‘Arrow’ and ‘The Flash’.

The extended trailer was shared last October 7 by DC Entertainment and picks up where the series left off in season 1. According to Entertainment Weekly, it follows the ‘Legends of Tomorrow’ crew as they encounter Justice Society of America’s Rex Tyler a.k.a. Hourman following the defeat of Vandal Savage. They then get into a time travel conundrum.

The clip also featured other members of the Justice Society of America including Obsidian, Stargirl, Citizen Steel’s grandson Commander Steel, and blind hero Dr. Mid-Nite. Villains from the Legion of Doom also made appearances. These include Malcolm Merlyn, Reverse-Flash, and Captain Cold.

Season 2’s episode 1 is directed by Dermott Downs with a story written by Greg Berlanti and Chris Fedack.

The incoming episode’s synopsis begins, “After the defeat of the immortal villain Vandal Savage and the exposure of the corrupt Time Masters, a new threat emerges. Dr. Nate Heywood (Nick Zano), an unconventional and charming historian, is thrust into the action. After making a shocking discovery, Nate seeks out Oliver Queen (guest star Stephen Amell) for help in finding the scattered Legends. Once reunited, the Legends continue their new mission to protect the timeline from temporal aberrations - unusual changes to history that spawn potentially catastrophic consequences.”

The synopsis concludes, “Their first stop is 1942 to protect Albert Einstein from being kidnapped before the Nazis destroy New York City with a nuclear bomb.  Meanwhile, Ray (Brandon Routh) notices that Sara (Caity Lotz) has a mission of her own, which leads them both to face her nemesis, Damien Darhk (guest star Neal McDonough).”
