The Time Masters were an organization charged with protecting history from rogue time travelers, but they were destroyed. Under the leadership of Rip Hunter, we have taken up their mantle. Sara Lance, former member of the League of Assassins; Dr. Raymond Palmer, the Atom; the arsonist Mick Rory; and Firestorm, the merged super form of Jefferson Jackson and myself, Martin Stein. We are the only ones left to protect history. We are the Legends of Tomorrow.
Martin Stein in Legends of Tomorrow, Staffel 2 Episode 1To quote every Star Wars movie ever made, "I've got a bad feeling about this."
Jefferson Jackson in Legends of Tomorrow, Staffel 1 Episode 7Ray: "I'm speaking Russian now, aren't I?"
Snart: "Now you're annoying in multiple languages"
Jax: "Seriously, I had no idea you were ever cool."
Stein: "I wasn't cool. I was an arrogant little snot."
Jax: "Was?"
Jax: "People actually wore this crap?"
Stein: "People smoked a lot of pot in the '70s. It clearly had a deleterious effect on the fashion of the era."
Rip: "Actually, I'm in charge, in case any of you have forgotten."
Snart: "No, I remember. I just don't care."
In 2166 an immortal tyrant named Vandal Savage conquered the world and murdered my wife and child. I have assembled an elite team to hunt him throughout time and stop his rise to power. Unfortunately my plan is opposed by the body I'd sworn my allegiance to, the Time Masters. In the future my friends may not be heroes, but if we succeed they'll be remembered as Legends.
Rip Hunter in Legends of Tomorrow, Staffel 1 Episode 1I've seen men of steel die and dark knights fall, and even then I accomplished my mission no matter what.
