    Gold Lantern 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/7415080_gold_lantern.jpg
AKA: Kala Lour
Homeworld: Unknown
Abilities: Gold Lantern power ring

  • Gold-Colored Superiority: He's the Gold Lantern and he's supposed to be the most powerful Lantern user of his timeline.
  • Informed Attribute: Described as incredibly powerful and skilled, but he doesn't stand out at all from the other Legionnaires. This also extends to his backstory, which is described as awesome by his teammates but when it's finally shown it's honestly rather tame for a hero's origin.
  • Inspirationally Disadvantaged: Gold Lantern is implied to be blind due to the fact that his mask doesn't have any eye holes. Most of the time.

    Monster Boy

AKA: Arune Singh
Homeworld: Tor-Etto
Abilities: Transformation

  • Distinction Without a Difference: Subverted with Monster Boy. Monster Boy can alter his form like Chameleon Boy. However, Monster Boy claims his powers aren't the same. Truly, while Monster Boy can only appear to turn into different types of monsters the only difference between him and Chameleon Boy is his powers appear far more monstrous.
  • Shout-Out: Monster Boy's got the ability to transform into different monsters, as in actual, preexisting monster characters such as Frankenstein's Monster and the Martians from Mars Attacks!.

    Doctor Fate 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/7602357_0aa.jpg
AKA Unknown
Homeworld Unknown
Abilities: Magic wielder

    X-Ray Girl 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/7602401_0aaaaa.jpg
AKA: Unknown
Homeworld: Unknown
Abilities: Turning objects transparent

  • All There in the Manual: Her name and powers were only revealed in the first trade book by Ryan Sook.
  • In the Hood: Wears a hood as part of her ensemble.
  • Living Prop: She's been present since the very first issue, but hasn't said or done anything besides filling crowd shots.

    The Golden Age Legionnaire 
AKA: Mordru
Homeworld: Zerox
Abilities: Spellcasting

A mysterious Legionnaire who was apparently pulled out of time and history alongside over a dozen heroes connected to the Golden Age, but would be reinserted into the universe following Flashpoint Beyond. This masked Legionnaire helped out the Justice Society of America in the 1940s and is currently investigating Alan Scott in the present day. He is in fact a young Mordru, long before he ever became Mordru the Merciless, and desperate to avoid his villainous future.

  • Mythology Gag: Their design is based off "Mask-Man," an antagonist who turned out to actually be the heroic descendant of Mr. Mxyzptlk from the Silver Age. However, it's unclear if he's the same person as Mxyzptlk V.
  • Noodle Incident: Their exploits in the Golden Age are currently unknown. When Helena Wayne encountered the Justice Society back then, they mentioned the Legionnaire as a fellow time traveler.
  • Remember the New Guy?: There was never a Legionnaire, new or old, associated with the Justice Society in the Golden Age. This may be a downplayed example as it's possible the Legionnaire is a veteran member hiding their identity. He's neither a new character nor a veteran Legionnaire. He's a veteran Legion villain before he was a villain.
  • Shout-Out: There was speculation based on his mask that the Golden Age Legionnaire might've been Ferro Lad or his twin brother thrown back in time. When it was revealed that he's actually a young Mordru trying to avoid becoming Mordru the Merciless, the mask becomes a stealth reference to Iron Lad of the Young Avengers, who was also the younger version of a villain trying to avoid his evil future.
