I think the flood of characters without depth is intentional. Aesthetically, it's a bit of genius writing, if a little infuriating. We know little to nothing, which throws us back into the shadows that surrounded Season 1, and as the Team learns more and more about what's going on, we get to learn more and more about the new and old Team. Part of that shock of new characters and missing Aqualad is what made that last one so amazing. We get the characterization.

That said, I do think they are done for the season with introducing new characters, other than Static and company. Now that the stage is set and we know more about the old characters, answers can be found for the bulk of the questions we have and characters can start to develop better.
