* AdaptationalLateAppearance: In an unconventional sense. ''Legends of Tomorrow'' is a show that makes use of DC characters but isn't really based off any particular superhero team or running series as its source material. And with a few rare exceptions like the ''Series/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths'' crossover, ''Legends'' isn't really known for adapting all that many comic book storylines either. That being said, for a show about DC superheroes involving time travel, especially one that has already featured ComicBook/RipHunter, it's really notable to have taken seven seasons for Booster Gold, ''the'' time travel DC superhero, to finally appear.
