All the heroes of the Arrowverse are dignified, noble warriors who fight for truth, justice, and the American way. All except the heroes of 'DC's Legends of Tomorrow', that is.

The wacky superhero comedy series is back with Season 5 and the fans are loving it, especially because of the documentary-style format of the opening episode, the first since the show's 'Crisis on Infinite Earths' tie-in.

A fan tweeted, "I love this episode is them filming a documentary and the film crew is following the legends on a mission and seeing how hilarious and dysfunctional they are lol!"

Another fan wrote, "What an episode!! I miss the legends and I’m so excited that they are back! This show is just so much fun!!"

"As far as a season opener, this film-crew episode is one the better ones I've seen," another fan tweeted. "It demands the whatever's seen not being taken seriously, so #LegendsOfTomorrow is perfect for it."

"This show is pure crack," a fan wrote, commenting on the absolute chaos that is 'Legends of Tomorrow'. "Every season they smoke more and more crack and their minds go above and beyond."

Yet another fan pointed out a scene that sums up just how hilarious the show really is, writing: "Ava: I'm gonna kill Rasputin. You in?

Mick: Yep

This is the duo I didn't know I needed in my life until now"

So far, all the episodes post-'Crisis on Infinite Earths' have been extremely enjoyable and now the fans are eagerly waiting to see whether 'The Flash', which returns in February, will also meet the standards set by the rest of the Arrowverse shows.

"Hmmmmmmm #Batwoman #Supergirl #BlackLightning and #LegendsOfTomorrow came back in this post-Crisis era guns f***in a-BLAZIN," a fan tweeted. "#TheFlash better come correct whenever the f*** it comes back. How is the show about the fastest man alive the last to come back? Always late ass n****."

'DC's Legends of Tomorrow' Season 5 Episode 3 'Miss Me, Kiss Me, Love Me' will be airing exclusively on The CW on February 4.
