With only five episodes remaining, each new installment is gearing up to be bigger than the last, and next week's hour of Supergirl will kickstart the show's final arc with our hero (Melissa Benoist) finding herself questioning how much longer she can live dual lives as both Kara Danvers and the Girl of Steel.
Meanwhile, the Superfriends find themselves in a race against the clock when a nightmare monster attacks National City, forcing Dreamer (Nicole Maines) to expedite the team's search for the Dream Totem, a quest that will ultimately put her on a collision course with her estranged sister Mauve (Hannah James).
Not much is really known about the final episodes, but the show is expected to have a presence at DC FanDome this weekend as fans will be able to get an exclusive sneak peek of the show's hour-long farewell tribute.
