"Crisis" Management: Kate Roughs Up Lex, Black Lightning Meets Flash-90 & More! [PREVIEW IMAGES]

We're officially nearing the end of November – which means The CW's "Arrowverse" shows are in full swing at this point. Arrow is shuffling off the network's programming coil after an abbreviated 10-episode eighth season (making The Flash the "elder states-show" of the "Arrowverse"), Ruby Rose-starrer Batwoman joined the family alongside Supergirl and expanded the Batman mythos in CW's DCU. Let's not forget a looming "Crisis on Infinite Earths" crossover that's less than a month away – and will change things dramatically, including Black Lightning this time around… and yes, they didn't forget about our crew from DC's Legends of Tomorrow.

With less than two weeks to go before the first chapter of the mega-crossover event begins, the network has shared a new set of images – this time from the third chapter: The Flash, "Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part Three".

Our two biggest takeaways? Watching Kate rough up Lex (Jon Cryer) will never get old, and seeing Jefferson Pierce aka Black Lightning (Cress Williams) is awesome and a long time coming:

"Crisis" Management: Kate Roughs Up Lex, Black Lightning Meets Flash-90 & More! [PREVIEW IMAGES]

After offering up teasers, official overviews for the first three chapters (see below), preview images for the Supergirl and Batwoman opening chapters (here and here), and the crossover's official poster, The CW released a new teaser that amps up the dire consequences that come from the Anti-Monitor getting his way:

Last week, The CW offered fans a look at the official overviews for the first three chapters – and there's a ton to unpack here. From when Kevin Conroy's Bruce Wayne, Cress Williams' Jefferson Pierce aka Black Lightning, Jon Cryer's Lex Luthor, and Osric Chau's Ryan Choi appear to where John Wesley Shipp's The Flash-90 has been to a… "Crisis on Infinte Clarks"(???), here's a look at what viewers can expect:

Yes, the rumors are true! Legendary Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy will star as a future version of Bruce Wayne. We're even getting 60's Batman "boy wonder" Burt Ward making an appearance.

If that wasn't enough, Tyler Hoechlin and Elizabeth Tulloch are returning as "The Man of Steel" and Lois Lane… alongside another of the crossover's Supermen: Brandon Routh (DC's Legends of Tomorrow), returning to the cape for the first time since his cinematic turn in Superman Returns, portraying the Kingdom Come version of the iconic superhero.

Still not enough Superman? How about Smallville co-stars Tom Welling and Erica Durance joining the crossover as Superman/Clark Kent and Lois Lane, respectively (and rumblings that someone from Smallville isn't too happy about the way they were approached regarding being a part of "Crisis").

Johnathon Schaech's Jonah Hex (DC's Legends of Tomorrow) is also set to saddle up for the crossover, and John Wesley Shipp will be reprising his role as The Flash of Earth-90. Ashley Scott will be returning to the role of Helena Kyle aka Huntress from The WB's short-run 2002 series Birds of Prey.

Osric Chau will recur in the role of physics professor Ryan Choi, who would take on his idol Ray Palmer's (Routh in DC's Legends of Tomorrow) former position at Ivy University – with the future Justice Leaguer following in his footsteps in the "hero department" as well.

Let's not forget Arrow co-star Audrey Marie Anderson's Lyla Michaels, who is set (appropriately enough) for the role of The Monitor's (LaMonica Garrett) Harbinger; and The Flash multitasker Tom Cavanagh on board as bad-luck sign Pariah. Of couse, we would be remiss if we didn't give a returning Emily Bett Rickards her proper respect.
