Superman: Legacy’s latest confirmed character is another superhero named Metamorpho, and here is everything you need to know about the DC vigilante.
Superman: Legacy has added the DC character of Metamorpho to the film's growing roster, and here is everything you need to know about the character's origins, Justice League connections, and place in the DCU. Since David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan were confirmed as Superman and Lois Lane respectively, the casting for Superman: Legacy has shifted into high gear.
This meteor altered Rex Mason's genetic structure, transforming him into Metamorpho. After this, Mason committed to using his newfound powers for good as Metamorpho, a DC superhero. Since then, Metamorpho has worked with multiple other superheroes and played his part in certain superhero teams, though has primarily worked solo which begs the question of how the hero will be portrayed in the DCU's Superman: Legacy: a lone hero or part of a pre-established team.
Metamorpho's Connection To The Justice League & Other Superhero Teams While Metamorpho may seem like a strange, obscure character to introduce in Superman: Legacy, he actually has strong connections to plenty of DC superhero teams, including the Justice League. Firstly though, Mason's initial superhero team was the Outsiders. The Outsiders were a group of superheroes formed by Batman himself, as a team that could go where the Justice League could not for political reasoning.
In the New 52, Metamorpho's main team affiliation came with The Terrifics. This story began when Simon Stagg attempted to force Metamorpho to transmute into DC's Nth Metal in order to create a portal to the Dark Multiverse. Unknowingly to Stagg and Mason, the superheroes Mister Terrific and Plastic Man arrived to stop Stagg, due to Plastic Man's resistance to Dark Multiverse energy.
