Yes, I’ll concede that the current season of Legends of Tomorrow has a lot going for it, but you have to admit how the inclusion of John Constantine helped boost interest in the series. After his own show was unfortunately cancelled by NBC after only 13 episodes, Matt Ryan’s iteration of the exorcist has become an unexpected and welcome addition to the Arrowverse in the time since.
Because of his continuing popularity, there’s just a certain level of excitement surrounding each episode of Legends that has a significant focus on Constantine. In fact, he’s proven to be key ingredient in season 4, seeing as how so much of it is based in magic and the fantastical, not to mention how this year’s big bad, Neron, has now taken on the likeness of John’s ex-boyfriend.
So, if you’re a fan of the trenchcoat wearing badass, then you’ll love what we have to present today. In the gallery below, you’ll find a number of photos promoting the upcoming episode “The Eggplant, The Witch & The Wardrobe.” Though it remains to be seen if the producers are cashing in on the rising popularity of the eggplant emoji, there’s certainly much to digest here.
One other thing I also couldn’t help noticing was a perky Nate talking to Zari. His father may have just been slain by the aforementioned Neron, sure, but I think the guy deserves to find some happiness following such a terrible tragedy – and hopefully he discovers Nora Darhk wasn’t the culprit before long.
