Garrett Black will appear as Skel. In the DCU, Judson Pierce was a mob boss who put out a hit on Martha Wayne but went to jail before the deed was done. Years later, after being released from prison he tried to kill Martha’s heir Bruce Wayne. As a result of being burned in an accident, he gained strength and took on the name “Skel.” A slang terminology meaning low-life, or criminal commonly used by police officers.

Emelio Merritt has a part listed as “Dying Celubra” and appears in episode six, entitled “Guilty,” along with Ted Grant. Celubra in Spanish means “Snake,” does that mean we could see the South American villain Copperhead?

My love of comics started at the age of 5, when visions of mythic beings fought their way across my TV screen. Batman '66, Super Friends, Wonder Woman, and Superman '78 filled my early childhood with imagination and adventure. Soon enough I found the spinner rack! Batman, Justice League and DC's Who's Who kept me coming back for more. I've seen the death of hope, justice broken, a light extinguished, and a universe torn! A kingdom come, the lightning return, a triumph of evil and a multiverse reborn!
