‘Supergirl’ season 2 spoilers: Who’s having some Clark Kent tension?

There are a wide array of different things to be excited about on “Supergirl” season 2, but one of the biggest ones has to do with the arrival of Clark Kent into the story. We’ve known for some time now that he is out there, but his involvement in season 1 was minimal at best. We saw him for a minute or so, and that was more or less it.

So now that we know that Clark will have a much bigger role, how will that impact characters beyond just Kara? That’s something that is of interest to us, given that Kara has another family member in Alex who has worked to protect her for many years. In setting up this dynamic to Entertainment Weekly, executive producer Andrew Kreisberg made it clear that there are going to be some issues that arise:

“Alex has been everything to Kara; she’s her family … Alex has a little bit of a chip on her shoulder about Clark. She loves him and he’s family, but he left Kara on their doorstep. Kara is so excited to see Clark and so excited to be with him, it’s almost a little bit like Alex feels taken for granted, because she’s the family member who’s put in the time. It sets up an interesting conflict between her and Kara in the first couple of episodes.”

In the end, you have to think that these two characters are going to figure out some sort of common ground, if for no other reason than that they each want the same thing: To protect their friends and family, and also the world around them. The only thing that is really different between them is how they go about accomplishing what they want.
