DC Entertainment have just announced details of a new Legends of Tomorrow anthology series, featuring some legendary comic talent working on new tales of Firestorm, Metamorpho, Metal Men and Sugar and Spike.

The series will reunite several characters from DC Comics’ rich history with the writers that made them fan favorites: Gerry Conway returns to Firestorm, Len Wein will handle the writing chores on Metal Men, Aaron Lopresti will pen Metamorpho, and the always interesting Keith Giffen will but his own unique spin on one of DC’s more offbeat titles, Sugar & Spike.
