They just cast Mirror Master (but not the first Mirror Master, not the extremely Scottish Mirror Master II everyone likes) and are apparently casting for the Top.

Still no word on Abra Kadabra, though, which is odd. It's not even like he's that outlandish at this point, either!

As for Captain Cold, he's returning in some fashion: both John Barrowman (Malcolm Merlyn) and Wentworth Miller (Captain Cold) got new contracts that allows for multiple appearances across all of the CW DC shows, without any complicated guest star negotiations.

I need this to be the plot

I need Neil Patrick Harris to reprise his role
We can only hope!

That's all extremely good news.

Guess I can wait longer for Abra Kadabra, There's no doubt in my mind that they will eventually introduce him.

However, Jmorph, maybe you know since you're more versed in old comics than I am. (I have only read about 3 Pre-Crisis DC comics that I can think of, all batman,) What the hell is Abra's original Goal, anyway? I know he's a stage magician from the future where stage magic is "obsolete", but why the hell does he start fighting the flash?

When you get down to it he wants to be famous

So he starts committing crimes (as you do)

Things escalate, wives get erased from history and brought back by duplicates with dark red 90s costumes, he becomes a ghost at some point because of his future tech, and apparently he just up and erases Wally from history completely while also turning himself into a lame regular kids party magician if the end of the new Titans issue is for real
Nevermind, there's nothing I can do
Bet your life there's something killing you
It's a shame we have to die, my dear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time
What a way to go, but have no fear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time
It's a shame we have to disappear
No one's getting out of here alive

Is that really it? That's super dumb. Even for silver age stuff.

Yeah, I knew about the stuff from the 90's. (well, not the New Titans stuff, actually)

Greg Berlanti (the guy who created and is basically in charge of all the CW-DC TV shows) is teaming with Salim and Mara Brock Akil to produce a Black Lightning show! It's currently being shopped around to different networks.
official logline said:
Jefferson Pierce made his choice: He hung up the suit and his secret identity years ago, but with a daughter hell-bent on justice and a star student being recruited by a local gang, he’ll be pulled back into the fight as the wanted vigilante and DC legend — Black Lightning.
It's an intriguing setup: an older superhero with a childwho wants to continue that heroic legacy. It's quintessentially DC!

In the comics, Black Lightning has two daughters, who both become superheroes, so I'm not sure whether this description means in the show he'll only have one daughter, or if it's just one daughter who wants to pursue crimefighting. Hopefully they'll have both!

If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

I have to wonder if the guys who make the decisions on both universes will ever realize how differently the characters and styles are appreciated. Arrow is dropping, Flash is on the rise, Supergirl with her new Superman are clearly going to get good reception...  And yet Warner and DC will most likely still not care about it because it's just TV and they'll do the movies differently.
