Supergirl Season 3 Episode 1 "Girl of Steel" Review


Kara deals with the loss on Mon-El by focusing her energy on being Supergirl and concentrating on a mysterious new threat; Alex confesses a secret to Maggie; a citizen of National City has a mysterious connection to Kara; Lena makes a bold move.

This was a really entertaining and great first episode that did have a really interesting storyline around recovery. I was a little worried when it kept being put out there that this was going to be a lot darker Supergirl which is something I don’t care much for, but luckily by the end of this episode it did show some signs of Kara recovering and becoming like herself again but with a little damage remaining around the edges. I loved how each of Kara’s friends approached talking to her in different ways where James was harsh love, Alex was looking for any start to a conversation, and J'onn tried relating to her through there share histories of pain, it was just all really interesting to see Kara’s reaction to each attempt to get through to her. Then the storyline around Lena and Morgan Edge was really interesting to watch how everything played out and I’m curious to know if there is some kind of history between Edge and the Luthors because he seemed really keen on showing the public who Lena really is. Then the moments between Alex and Maggie were okay with them discussing their upcoming wedding and I liked that they did go back to that moment of J'onn being like a father to Alex by asking J’onn to give her away. Then everything with Regin was interesting with them mostly just introducing her and having her discover some of her powers, and I want to know if because her pod was discovered in the rubble of the explosion is there going to be some kind of memory thing that causes her to figure out who she really is. I’m a little disappointed that there was nothing of Mon-El and what happened in this episode because I really want to know where he went when he went through the portal. And just overall this was a really great and entertaining first episode for the season and I can’t wait to see where they will go from here.
