The encores, as coined by Mona Wu, are several souls who Astra Logue freed from Hell. They were resurrected at some point after their deaths (usually a few days or a couple of weeks), prompting the Legends to take action and send them back to Hell.
Among other potential nicknames for these resurrected evil souls were evil do-overs and villa-agains, suggested by Ray Palmer and Nate Heywood, respectively.
History
Prior to January 2020, Astra Logue freed several damned souls from Hell.[1]
Every one of them made their way back to their bodies and were resurrected a short time after their deaths. As the "encores" that they are, they're immortal and virtually impossible to kill.[2]
Known encores
- Grigori Rasputin
- Benjamin Siegel (deceased)
- Kathy Meyers (original timeline)
- Marie Antoinette
- Genghis Khan
Powers and abilities
Powers
- Immortality: As encores, they cannot die as long as a chit of their soul is bound to Hell. Their immortality knows no bounds, as they can remain conscious even after each of their body parts are separated.[2]
- Regenerative healing factor: With their immortality, encores can also quickly regenerate any of their body parts, as long as their within direct contact with each other.[2]
Weaknesses
- Hellfire: Special fire from Hell that can be weaponized and fashioned into bullets, and is capable of killing both the living and the dead, including encores, despite their usual immunity to death. However, so far, it was only used against humans, to it is unclear what the effect would be on other creatures.[3]

Trivia
- An encore refers to a repeated or additional performance of an item at the end of a concert, as called for by an audience, which is a fitting name that Mona coined, as these souls got a second lease on life.
