Arrowverse mega-crossover 2018: How 'Legends of Tomorrow' can drop subtle 'Elseworlds' link

From the 70s Woodstock-centric timeline to the assembly of eccentric superheroes (mostly magical ones) - CW's 'Legends of Tomorrow' is clearly trotting a different path in S04.
PUBLISHED SEP 26, 2018

If you are expecting to see Black Canary, Atom, Heat Wave, or Vixen in the much-awaited Arrowverse crossover event - ironically titled 'Elseworlds' - be prepared to be disappointed. Not only is the CW spinoff, featuring characters from the 'Arrow' and 'The Flash,' planning to sit the upcoming three-day crossover out but also is moving in a different tangent altogether (as compared to the other DC shows). 

From the 70s Woodstock-centric timeline to the assembly of rather eccentric superheroes (mostly magical ones) - CW's 'Legends of Tomorrow' is clearly trotting a different path. Some may even compare it to a certain Doctor Strange-esque style from the fellow Marvel cinematic universe. But all of this doesn't necessarily mean a loss of direction for the series.
