On the Arrow crossover episode “Legends of Today,” Kendra Saunders gets a surprise visit from Hawkman, aka Carter Hall. Hall explains to her that they’re not who they appear to be…in this lifetime. “We’re lovers. We’ve been soul mates for the past four thousand years.” He breaks down the whole reincarnation process to her and the rest of the gang. “These people cannot protect you from Vandal Savage any longer,” he warns her. “In every lifetime, he hunts us down and kills us.” He’s done so 206 times.
