A Burned Scone In A Cookie World

I think, of Dick’s top ten cruelest moments, telling Damian who put so much effort into trying to gain Bruce’s acceptance as both his son and Robin, that Dick considered fighting for custody of him and simply didn’t because he thought he’d suck at being a dad after raising him for a year already, is one of the worst

Anyways hi yes I’m still alive

If anything I’m impressed by the sheer amount of different outfits the Kryptonions managed with only the color white

Ok but seriously what do we think Kara was expecting upon meeting her cousin Kal-El, the supposed god among mortals with a secret harem to rebuild their race? She has these concerning beliefs regarding the person she’s about to meet. A ruler of men with dozens of wives…but he doesn’t speak Kryptonion and wears his underwear on the outside but at the same time also gives her a costume with the House of El insignia on it??? The sheer magnitude of “what the fuck” must have been mind-numbing.

Accidental child acquisition, my love, you’ve struck again

I LOVE that Kara’s scream after she failed to get the antidote on Bilquis was silent because sound can’t travel through space! Like yes it’s an emotional scene and was probably just a stylistic choice but also like!! They had physics!!! And she knew if she screamed on that planet with a yellow sun she’d decimate the area!!!! So she went up to space!!!!!

It is truly a shame the bar is so low for women superhero movies

One of the things I found so interesting walking away from Supergirl 2026 is how the movie portrays Kara’s use of her powers. With Clark they always feel innate, part of him, like they are him. He is Superman because of his powers. Kara meanwhile treats them as this rad tool she now suddenly gets to use to make her invincible. And she can turn them on and off just by going to a different solar system! You can feel her struggle with home and identity in each and every aspect of her usage and that makes the fact that they are powers so visceral. Again, we’re all used to Kryptonite and red suns as comic fans but I feel like this movie helps showcase the powers as mere tools because they are. It’s the person who makes the powers. Yes she’s Supergirl but she’s actually Kara Zor-El of Krypton and Argo and when she’s around a yellow sun she has powers she can use to do some good.
