We have the titular character Supergirl and she can't be the damsel in distress because she's the star of the show, but Superman can't also overshadow her. So what will they do for the titular character's role? Does anyone know how Supergirl can remain the titular character?

Ever read any Supergirl comics? They do a good job of balancing it. Superman is more or less just there as a rock for her emotionally. He also doubles as a mentor.

I have a feeling the general story will be Clark comes to town while investigating a story he's looking into, and while he's in town, Superman saves the day with Supergirl. But all the press portrays it to be about Superman saving the day "with the help of Supergirl." And this season will deal with Kara overcoming that.This would be in line with the feminist backbone that the series has. Just my guess, anyways.

To each their own. There's nothing wrong with either suit if you ask me; it's just preference. I like Cain's closer-to-royal blue than Reeve's baby blue.

God, just watching either of these guys makes me cringe at how embarrassed DC seems to be of the red underwear. It's the single most iconic superhero costume there is. Just... own it, dammit. And proudly.
