‘Supergirl’ season 2 spoilers: Specific details on Livewire’s return
The second season of “Supergirl” is in the process of bringing back a number of its different villains, but let’s make one thing super-clear: Livewire is the one we’re the most excited for. As we’ve noted in the past, one of the most appealing things about her is that she’s got a personal connection to Kara Danvers and Cat Grant. She’s not some creature created in the lab.
We’ve seen the return of Brit Morgan as the character already in a new trailer for the show, but despite that, we’re actually not going to see her as a major player in the January 23 winter premiere entitled “Supergirl Lives.” Instead, she’ll be turning up in the January 30 episode entitled “We Can Be Heroes,” the second installment of 2017. Here are a few details regarding what you can expect to see…
1. Livewire is going to escape from her prison — how else did you expect her to be on the loose again? It’s not like anyone from the DEO is going to decide all of a sudden that she’s no longer a danger to society.
2. Supergirl could have some help in taking her out this time in Mon-El, and this is following Barry Allen lending a helping hand during “Worlds Finest” last season. She’ll continue to train Mon-El to be the best hero that he can, but there may be a problematic moment in this episode when he puts the needs of Supergirl over the needs of the people in National City. That’s not great when protecting these people is the focal point of your duties.
3. As for some other characters, this may be the episode when James Olsen decides to finally come clean about being Guardian. We imagine that Kara will be infuriated that she’s kept this secret from him, but won’t she have some other things on her plate to focus on? We also figure that Guardian could be an asset. He may not have super-powers, but he’s a smart guy and already has shown that he knows how to be bait.
