STARGIRL & The JSA Embark On Their First Mission In New Promo For Season 1, Episode 6: "The Justice Society"

While the promotional stills did spoil the big team reveal last week, The CW has now released a full-length promo, offering a much better look at Stargirl (Brec Bassinger) and the newly revamped Justice Society of America embarking on their first superhero mission against the dangerous Sportsmaster (Neil Hopkins) and Tigress (Joy Osmanski).

In addition to Wildcat (Yvette Monreal), the team has now added both Rick Tyler (Cameron Gellman) and Beth Chapel (Anjelika Washington) as the new Hourman and Doctor Midnite, respectively. Plus, based on Pat Dugan's (Luke Wilson) intriguing discovery to close the last hour, the show may also be on the verge of introducing a new Green Lantern.


 
THE POWERS THAT BE — Courtney (Brec Bassinger) makes a difficult decision after Pat (Luke Wilson) confronts her about the potential consequences of recruiting new members to the JSA. Elsewhere, Barbara (Amy Smart) shows up in support of Mike’s (Trae Romano) science fair, and Courtney, Yolanda (Yvette Monreal), Beth (Anjelika Washington) and Rick (Cameron Gellman) prepare for their first major mission. Neil Jackson and Hunter Sansone also star. Chris Manley directed the episode written by Taylor Streitz (#106). Original airdate 6/23/2020.

























 
The new DC UNIVERSE drama series DC's STARGIRL follows high school sophomore Courtney Whitmore as she inspires an unlikely group of young heroes to stop the villains of the past. This new drama reimagines Stargirl and the very first superhero team, the Justice Society of America, in an unpredictable series that focuses on the character that started creator Geoff Johns' career as a comic book writer when he created her in 1999, lovingly inspired by his late sister who was killed in a 1996 plane explosion.

Stargirl features:
Brec Bassinger as Courtney Whitmore/Stargirl
Yvette Monreal as Yolanda Montez/Wildcat
Anjelika Washington as Beth Chapel/Doctor Mid-NIte
Cameron Gellman as Rick Tyler/Hourman
Trae Romano as Mike Dugan
Jake Austin Walker as Henry King Jr.
Meg DeLacy as Cindy Burman
Hunter Sansone as Cameron Mahkent
Neil Jackson as Jordan Mahkent/Icicle
Christopher James Baker as Henry King Sr./Brainwave
Amy Smart as Barbara Whitmore
Luke Wilson as Pat Dugan/S.T.R.I.P.E.

I’m a few episodes behind, but are people liking this so far? Luke Wilson has been MVP for me, and Courtney is okay, but I’m not sure how I feel about her forming a new JSA with a bunch of kids picking up the mantles. It looks a little cheesy lol.

@Armageddon26 - It’s great! Not as cheesy as you would think.

The little brother actor does a great job of acting like his Dad in subtle ways. I don't care much for the character but he's certainly played well in that respect.

@Nightwing1015 - Having read the comic, Mike eventually joins his Dad in maintaining S.T.R.I.P.E. and eventually takes over as Courtney's partner after their sister is born. So, it makes me wonder how long we'll have Luke Wilson.

Stargirl is probably the most DC show DC has ever DC'd.

And it's joining a collection of dynamic content coming out of DC TV/Streaming, including:

Watchmen
Harley Quinn
Doom Patrol
Swamp Thing
Young Justice

So far the show has been good. Not great but promising. I'm really looking forward see how it holds out after they get over the team forming phase.

Also excited to see if those old JSA easter eggs lead somewhere, like the Alan Scott's lantern, helmet of Nabu or Johnny Thunder's pen. Maybe we'll see Jade or Jakeem Thunder at some point down the line.

This is why I can't watch Superhero TV shows, the production quality always looks like a college media project.

@billnye69 - The Netflix shows were pretty high budget. And Titans was also pretty high budget (even though it didn't always show)!

I find it odd that most of the costumes look really good on screen but there's still a handful that are much worse than the Arrowverse costumes.

@Himura - Also, Artemis is officially confirmed (unless I missed some previous announcements). I like that they're already setting up characters for future seasons.

This show also seems like a good fit to introduce Wally or Bart Allen

@Himura - Yeah, they've set up Artemis, Jakeem, Shade, and the Knight family (well Ted Knight, anyway).
Also, in Dr. Midnite's goggles, it noted that he was born in 1913 and died in 2010.

I honestly really like this show. It's nothing amazing or anything, but close enough lol.

I really appreciate how this show is really upping the ante on making some of the villains real threats compared to their Golden Age origins, especially with the cases of the Fiddler, the Gambler, and Brainwave. The Gambler especially, considering his whole shtick in the comics.

Lot of good comments about this show so I guess it will be worth checking out

I'm really looking forward to this show each week. Forst time I've been that way in a long time. I just hope they can keep the momentum and originality up once the origin part is complete.
