WHAT NEW CHARACTERS COULD/SHOULD BE A PART OF THIS ‘CRISIS’?

Among the comic book series’ key players, we have already met the Monitor (played by LaMonica Garrett), while his evil counterpart from the antimatter universe, dubbed the Anti-Monitor, has yet to be seen — unless that was him unleashing J’onn J’onzz’s brother on our world and then approaching Lex Luthor in the Supergirl season finale. (Garrett will also play the similar-looking Anti-Monitor.)

Pariah, a pivotal player in releasing the Anti-Multiverse, will be played by The Flash‘s Tom Cavanagh.

One of the Monitor’s vital allies, Harbinger, would seem to be required for this storyline — though the “trick” there is that the name of her alter ego, Lyla Michaels, is already being used by Diggle’s wife on Arrow.

One of the Anti-Monitor’s cohorts, Psycho-Pirate, was introduced in the final moments of the “Elseworlds” crossover (played by Bob Frazer), telling Arkham neighbor John Deegan that “the stage has been set,” and as a result, “Worlds will live. Worlds will die. And the universe will never be the same.”
