When it comes to The CW, the network is no stranger to crossover events. The popular channel has featured various mash-ups between its DC Comics adaptations over the years. Heroes like Green Arrow and The Flash have connected during their tenures, and those characters will soon take part in a major four-way crossover with DC’s Legends of Tomorrow and Supergirl. So, in honor of the upcoming even, one actor from Arrow has decided to tease fans with a special behind-the-scenes photo.

Rick Gonzalez, who plays Wild Dog, posted a picture to his Twitter that shows of DCTV’s ‘Superhero Committee.’ The ensemble photo features Supergirl, Wild Dog, Mr. Terrific, The Flash, and Prometheus standing in a line. Obviously, some fans may question whether the last member of the group fits under the ‘superhero’ moniker, but we can let that slide for now.

While Oliver Queen is notably absent from the photo, the sneak-peak does tease fans about which Arrow characters will take part in The CW’s crossover event. Fans knew that The Flash and Supergirl would be taking part in the special, but the photo apparently hints that the other three characters will also be involved somehow.

Earlier this month, Rick Gonzalez confirmed his part in the crossover during an interview with ComicBook.com. The actor remained mum about his character’s storyline, but he did said Wild Dog will be in the crossover. And, what’s more, he puts his “huge dislike for metahumans” on full display.

“We’ll definitely see him not exactly rub well with The Flash and Supergirl and that’s just another glimpse into his psyche and his ideas and thinking about the world and the idea that there are people out there who have these sort of powers and who they are. Instead of saying ‘Wow, these people can do these things,’ he [Wild Dog] says, ‘No, I don’t like you because this is what you bring to the table. This is what you represent to me.’”

So, fans should expect to see Wild Dog clash with heroes like The Flash and Supergirl from the start. The folks over at The CW have stressed that Supergirl will play a large role in the four-way (and three episode) crossover. If Team Arrow’s newest recruit wants to get his job done and not fail Star City, he will likely have to resolve his prejudices against Krypton’s ex-pat.

In a recent interview with Collider, executive producer Marc Guggenheim described how the crossover event will mesh with Arrow. He said, “Last year, Supergirl established that The Flash was able to make his way to what I call Earth-CBS, and it stands to reason that with the proper breach technology, the reverse can happen. Once the heroes realize that they’re up against aliens, they decide that they need an alien on their side and, fortunately, Barry knows a really nice one. I don’t think it’s a big shock that, between Barry and Cisco, and all of their experiences with Earth-2 and the multi-verse, that they can pluck her from Earth-CBS.”

Arrow airs on The CW Wednesday’s at 8 p.m.
