Identity Of First Villain (Who "Has Battled Kara's Cousin") In SUPERGIRL TV Series Revealed
One of the first foes that Supergirl will face in the upcoming TV series of the same name isn't exactly an iconic DC Comics bad guy, but the official description once again indicates..
Which iconic DC Comics villain will Supergirl be battling it out with in the first episode of the upcoming CBS series? Um, the Lumberjack? (we don't know who he is either) According to TV Line, he'll first appear in the pilot episode of the show which stars Melissa Benoist as Kara Zor-El/Danvers and Mehcad Brooks as Jimmy Olsen. Apparently, they're now looking for an actor similar to, "Rory McCann, the 6-foot-6 actor from Game of Thrones". Maybe cast Rory McCann?
Regardless, the description they give is very interesting as it reveals that he's a "big, burly monster of a man, who has battled Kara’s cousin -that's SUPERMAN! - in the past and shows up to ascertain her level of power, on behalf of an unseen superior." So Superman DOES exist in this world, and there will obviously be some references to him. Supergirl was hinted at in Man of Steel, so could it be that this series takes place in the DC Cinematic Universe? Share your thoughts on this odd piece of news below...
