Freedom Fighters: The Ray will air sometime in 2017 on CW Seed, but in the meantime, stay tuned to Cinema Blend for all the latest surrounding The CW’s DC shows.
It’s worth noting that The Ray isn’t the DC CW universe’s first gay hero, as Sara Lance, a.k.a.
The Ray is obscure enough that he likely couldn’t pull off leading his own show on the main channel, but on CW Seed, using him and The Freedom Fighters allows them to open up a corner of the DC universe that few people know about.
In the comics, Raymond Terrill was the second hero to claim The Ray identity, preceded by his father Lanford and succeeded by Stan Silver and Lucien Gates.
