A new promotional video from The CW explores the heroes of Arrow, The Flash, and Legends of Tomorrow.
Though the video does not contain new footage from any of the three shows, it embraces their comic book heritage. The trailer mixes the live action footage with panels from relevant comic books, showing parallels between the comics and the shows.
Check it out below:
For Arrow and The Flash, the footage traces the growth of the titular hero, from episode 1 to the present. Legends of Tomorrow, of course, has not aired an episode yet, so the footage comes from the established characters’ respective shows as well as the trailer we saw at The CW’s Upfront in May.
Read the synopses for the upcoming seasons of each show below.
‘Arrow’ season 4
“After defeating his most formidable foe to date and riding off into the sunset with longtime flame Felicity Smoak, Oliver Queen (a.k.a. The Arrow) left Starling City with the hopes of beginning a new life. But will Oliver ever truly be able to leave behind his past as the Arrow, and, if so, what becomes of the team he has worked so hard to assemble? Will Diggle, Thea, and Laurel be left to continue Oliver’s crusade without him? And with Malcolm Merlyn having ascended to the top of the League of Assassins as the new Ra’s al Ghul, is anyone really safe?”

‘The Flash’ season 2
“Following the defeat of Barry Allen’s arch-nemesis Eobard Thawne (aka Reverse Flash), Team Flash quickly turned their attention to the singularity swirling high above Central City, which fans last saw consuming everything in its path. Armed with the heart of a hero and the ability to move at super speeds, Barry charged into the eye of the singularity, but will he actually be able to save his city from impending doom?”

‘DC’s Legends of Tomorrow’
“When heroes alone are not enough… the world needs legends. Having seen the future, one he will desperately try to prevent from happening, time-traveling rogue Rip Hunter is tasked with assembling a disparate group of both heroes and villains to confront an unstoppable threat — one in which not only is the planet at stake, but all of time itself. Can this ragtag team defeat an immortal threat unlike anything they have ever known?”
