Spoilers Supergirl - Season 2
- Thread starter Commander Richard
- Start date
It doesn't seem that out of place for SG to me.
The CW has announced they will air all of Season1 starting in August. They will air two episodes on Mondays going through to the start of Season 2 in October.

I hope that they wind up on Hulu this time.
Netflix works for me to.
But they won't be going up on Netflix until 8 days after the finale airs. They should go up on The CW's website though, and as long as you get the CW you should have free access to them.Netflix works for me to.
Wow...We're 30 pages in on a thread about a season that won't start for another 3 months
^ Lots of big changes and lots of big news.
I'm glad CW is reairing season 1. I probably will record them and rewatch the series. Want to see some of the early episodes again.
We're getting our first Melissa Benoist SG action figure as part of DC's 6" Mutiverse line.
I'm glad to see it as part of the Multiverse line, those tend to be some of DC's highest quality figures. They already have Arrow and Flash figures, so now they just need at least one of the Legends of Tomorrow.

This was the Superman's "Rogue Gallery" in the 1976
When you have to put The Prankster and Amalak (that I hadn't the faintest idea who he was) between the "9 deadliest Superman foes" you are really scraping the bottom of the barrel.

Let's see... clockwise, that's Parasite, Amalak (I've never heard of him either), I dunno, Toyman, I dunno, Brainiac, Prankster, Luthor, Mr. Mxyzptlk.
Ian Gomez to recur as Snapper Carr - http://tvline.com/2016/07/12/supergirl-season-2-ian-gomez-cast-as-snapper-carr/
That is Kryptonite Man standing between Amalak(I thought I knew every minor Superman, I never heard of him either!) and Toyman.
The problem with Superman villians is the writers never try to make the second string ones more interesting. Instead they completely reimagine the few big ones.
The many versions of Luthor could have in theory been separate characters. Mad Scientist, Business mogul, xenophobe, curupt politician. Edit - just realized all but mad scientist describe the Rebupilcan presidential nominee...
Mr Freeze was a minor batman villain until Paul Dini made him interesting. Before he was played by Frank Gorshin the Riddler had only appeared in 2 stories in something like a 25 year period.

I've seen the actor in a couple of things before, but I don't have a strong memory of him. What worries me is io9's suggestion that he may be intended to take Cat Grant's place given Calista Flockhart's probably more infrequent appearances after the move to Vancouver. I've been hoping that Cat would still have a relatively significant role. Adding a new "boss" character makes it easier to reduce her role still further.
I guessed Kryptonite Man -- pretty obvious from the look of him -- but I checked the DC Database and it said that was an alias of Silver Age Luthor, so I didn't look further.
Superman: TAS tried to revitalize some of the second-stringers, like giving Toyman a creepy doll face and a tragic wronged-employee backstory B:TAS-style. Didn't work out as well as Mr. Freeze, say.
But there is the common thread of Luthor's arrogance and narcissism, the fact that what drives him to oppose Superman is his inability to accept anyone as his superior. The character and his motivation are the same, just the trappings and methods change. Either he tries to prove that he has more brain power than Superman, or he tries to prove that he has more economic and political power. His xenophobia is just a side aspect of his egotism and fear of being outcompeted.
Oh, you mean the guy who was in the "Weird Western Tales" time-travel episode in Justice League Unlimited, but who wasn't called Terra Man there even though he totally was?
He's a space cowboy with a horse that runs through space and old fashioned six shooter that fire lasers that can hurt Superman.
If he spends most of his time in space, of course all the aliens in space are going to call him Earth Man, or Terra Man.
