    Clark is her cousin. If he wasn't mentioned or shown in some capacity you'd get the Avengers effect, where shit is happening and they go "lol why superman no help her".

    I liked it, because if he didn't show up I'd have wondered where the hell he was too.

    At least they explained it, and in a better way than any of the Marvel movies to date.

    This is coming from a huge a Marvel fan and even bigger critic of DC.

    Yeah but she could at least just say superman or Clark to those that know about him. Hearing my cousin all the time is annoying

    Holy crap she knows him as her cousin so there's no reason for her to be calling him Superman. They say it enough.

    I have many gripes with the show, most I can keep to myself get and passed. The one thing that irks me the most is how they justify the glasses being able to hide their secret identity. Like she's getting her picture taken all over the place, stands right in front of a news reporter, is never really shy about hiding her face, they should at least explain how she hides when in plain sight.

    Like, the explanation they give superman always seemed lame to me, but at least I get it. The one in the show is just retarded.

    That's sort of a cost-of-entry thing with superheroes in 2015. Same as some of the shit in The Flash. Doesn't matter who Clark "fools" in the age of facebook having facial recognition good enough to autotag your friends a pair of glasses are not hiding shit from anyone.

    Don't think too hard about it. Source material is from the dark ages.

    Just some sort of explanation rather than, It's cool, they won't believe you're her.

    In some Superman mythos they even give him psychic powers which he uses to fool people into thinking Clark Kent is a normal guy. But I'm not sure if that's a main canon or just something they have run with once or twice.

    is the DEO boss martian manhunter or something?
    if she can block the blasts with her hand why would his blasts hurt her when she gets hit by them?

    Spoiler: show
    Henshaw is a major villain.


    Also, they're blasts of radiation. She can defend from them with her hand because she's standing her ground. When he's blasting her in the fucking face she's getting knocked around and into shit.

    She's not invincible, damn.

    Have someone throw a baseball at you while you catch it, then have them throw it at you and take it like a man.

    how about blast you with a fire hose in the chest vs you sticking out ur hand to block it is a better analogy. If it's hard enough to hurt your body, ur hand not gonna stop it.

    Best part was her besting going clark? wait superman is clark kent?!!! ahahaha

    Are you blind to the laws of physics or do you just not know how your skeleton works?

    Unexpected feels from that scene with the Hozier cover.

    Also the friendzone guy is painful to watch.

    Could do without the Jimmy Triangle but the show is actually pretty good.

    Yo Kara fucked up not in the friendzone thing by being too nice.

    Also annoying this episode was switched in order because of the bombings. Weird to watch already knowing the results of the Lucy/James thing.
