So we've hear that there's some serious thought to changing up the team's roster.
Someone else posted a thread with this idea elsewhere, so I'm going to start us off with the answer I put there:
Group 1 (characters already tied down on the CW shows/more likely to be relegated to CW)
1. Wally West as the Flash- the show's version is showing signs of getting better, and while I know that there are Kid Flash fans out there, I'd rather see Wally skip right past that phase and just become a Flash for the LOT team, going through a hero's journey himself, and maybe using the possibility of spreading Flash legends to help obscure Barry's ID from Eobrad Thawne. Eventually, he can stand as Barry's literal equal thanks to time travel.
2. Connor Hawke (John Diggle II) as Green Arrow- Have the timeline he's from get sheared off into chaos, or have him end up just marooned from his own timeline, but give us a chance to have two Generation 3 characters in the same show. Plus, if they want to make Wally a bit of a hound dog, having a more standoffish Connor would be hilarious.
3. Nathaniel Adam as Captain Atom- You've got Wade Eiling in the show, so I think there must be some rough plans to have this guy show up. Ex-military and ex-con, it might be fun to play with his powers sending him on time trips separate from the main group.
4. Sara Lance as White Canary- 'Cause she's awesome, and I think she makes a good field leader character.
5. Caitlin Snow as Killer Frost- I think Panabaker had fun in the role, and it would be fun to have someone who genuinely is a full on murderer on the team. Plus, I think the Rogues could conceivably hold their own miniseries down for the boys, and she'd make a good replacement for them.
6. Rose Wilson as Ravager- We've got Joe and Grant, might as well bring in the little sister. Plus, she'd make a fun apprentice for Sara.
Group 2 (Characters who could conceivably show up, but might have other issues.)
7. Old Man Slade Wilson as Deathstroke- Give Manu Bennett an all white hair dye job, and make this a Slade who's come to regret his past actions and maybe sees this as a chance to reconnect with Rose, even though she hates him. Future time traveling also opens up the possibility of him fighting a younger version of himself, and to help differentiate him from his past self, have him use the gun-staff more than a sword.
8. Old Man Robert Queen as the Hood- I think it would be awesome to see Robert's parallel journey to Olliver's, especially if he gets older and more embittered and lethal than his son. Plus, picture him and Slade on the same team. They'd eventually come to blows, and it would be epic.
Group 3 (unlikely characters to be constant members, but what the hey)
9. Tim/Jason/Dick as Robin/Red Robin/Red Hood/Nightwing- go ahead and make this series a partial Young Justice and Teen Titans show.
10. Raven, Cyborg, Superboy, Impulse, Starfire, etc.
Group 4 (not members of the team but characters I'd like to see recur)
11. The Spectre- have the angelic half be fully aware of the 4th dimension, so he leads the changing human hosts to the team when they're needed. Have the hosts strive to avoid releasing the Angel, and often arguing with...
12. Jason Blood as the Demon Etrigan- more easily able to access his powers than the Spectre, but still wary of letting the monster out.
