Kudos on both counts.īut there was a downside as well. It also brought a sense of hope to the genre in general and the Superman mythos in particular, serving as the antithesis of the angsty, more emo-driven take on the world of the Last Son Of Krypton as established in Man Of Steel and Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice. In truth, the show achieved quite a lot last year, most notably establishing a female superhero in a world of film and television that, up until then, had been decidedly male-centric. In its second season, Supergirl has very quickly come into its own, embracing its comic book roots and moving away from certain limitations - either self-imposed or insisted upon - that were a part of year one.
