Yeah, I didn't get why Kelex didn't spot via visual scanning that it wasn't Kara! They've never given any indication it was "blind" or had no visual recognition of people.
Plus what happened to him needing the massive dwarfstar matter key?! |

Knowing nothing about the comic history, I assume since he's referred to as Cyborg Superman (why does he have that name?! he doesn't even look like superman!) that he has enough strength to pick the key up!
The Wiki article is also quite good. |

When Cyborg Superman was introduced after the Death of Superman storyline, he was essentially a Cyborg that looked like and claimed to be Superman. He was later revealed to be Hank Henshaw. So considering how he looks nothing like Superman on the show, it would have made more sense to call himself Cyborg Hank Henshaw. Not a lot of sense, just a bit more. Quote:
he poses as him for a while and basically takes over as Superman before it's discovered he's a cyborg version.
In the New52/Rebirth universe, he's apparently someone else entirely, but it doesn't matter, nobody really reads those. |

It was immediately apparent he was a Cyborg. The reveal was that he was Hank Henshaw.

Yes you're right, my previous comment was poorly worded.
I kind of wonder if they're headed for a Death of Supergirl storyline, now that they have a Cyborg Superman (sort of), and a potential stand-in Superboy in Mon-El, and Guardian (groan) could be Steel. Although what's Shaq up to these days? He might be up for a short TV gig?

So as high tech as the fortress is, it can be fooled by just covering your hand with the blood of superman/girl/anyone who is authorised to be in the fortress?
THat seems like quite the flaw. Especually when your system that can recognise speech, can't recognise that Kara suddenly sounds like a bloke and that her biometrics are totally abnormal for a Kryptonian female. I'm assuming if they have blood recognition they can also do bio scans and such but didn't spot finger prints weren't Karas and she's now half robot? How did he even enter? I assume the door isn't open all the time and if he done the blood trick to get in why didn't it recognise him as Kara on entry as it already checked him as Kara to open the door. If so why soak his hand again, he would already have blood on it from the door scanner. I should stop. Could go on for a while with that end scene lol |

So, the start of the 4 night "crossover"... WOW. Just WOW.
Good episode, but can't help but feel incredibly let down by how non-crossovery that was. |

That said, the quality of Flash this season has been low, so I'm really not expecting much now at all... I mean, in terms of advertising that was not what was sold. Do you think I can return it? Can I get a refund?

Well it was advertised as some kind of super amazing cross-over movie-like event, so I think it's only fair to be incredibly let down by that.

I enjoyed the episode shame Cisco and Barry didn't appear until the last minute.
I liked the Alex and Eliza scene in the DEO and I also liked the Lena scenes. Poor Kelex. ![]() So did Mon-El forget about his kiss with Kara or is he lying that he doesn't know? |

That's what I thought too...I think the thing is, they should have started the cross over at the last episode of Flash so you see him going to get Supergirl for a reason. Whereas so far we have seen no reason for him to be going to get her yet in Flash. Its like they cant get their timings right think the last cross over was the same.

I agree but I'm guessing there will probably be a flashback scene when Barry explains what he needs her for.
I love it when it's all screwed up... |

"Hack Lena's phone anyway!"
![]() The good old near-death experience for Maggie to see the error of her ways. Alex kept her control remarkably well stitching up a topless Maggie, well I guess she is Lexie Grey after all... ![]() Innocent Kara thinking Mon-El wanted to be Eliza's toyboy! I'm thinking Mon-El remembered the kiss. Agree with others, wasn't really much of a crossover was it? I thought Barry and Cisco would've had more time than that given the whole big build up of the crossover week event. There'll probably be a flashback while they explain it to Kara. A bit backwards in coming forwards, but it'll have to do. |

), I'm probably due some form of compensation. ![]() ![]() I am not particularly interested in the crossover, so I didn't mind that it was really just a regular episode. And a pretty decent one at that, certainly by recent standards. Supergirl didn't kill anyone, there was very little "James", and the action wasn't too bad. And to anyone who claims Superman/Supergirl are hard to write, because they're so powerful, Supergirl sure doesn't come across as all that powerful... or bright. She just about managed to defeat the flying toaster at the Fortress, but Cyborg Hens... I mean "Superman" (sigh) once again gave her a bit of a whooping, and she couldn't even stop the rocket. Still no clarification of why Henshaw thinks he's Cyborg Superman, but he's apparently sticking with it. Was it a little weird that nobody told Elizah about Jeremiah? Quote:

Of course he remembers, but it's a CW show, so they have to have some pointless, fake relationship drama. I actually thought they were going to take a different route for once, when Supergirl just outright asked him if he liked her, but alas...Him pretending not to remember probably has to do with how he's the Daxamite prince, who's most likely intended to marry someone else, and those new aliens (great, more aliens) at the end of the episode are probably planning a shotgun wedding. |

I wonder if Supergirl or the DEO already know about The Dominators as they very well may exist in their universe to.
I saw a behind the scenes clip and apparently Supergirl's Earth is Earth 38. |

So a Kryptonion Scientist develops a Virus that is deadly to all alien (non Kryptonion) lifeforms.
So why exactly did this deadly all alien killing Virus not kill off the aliens from the planet Earth? Is the Virus clever enough to say "Hey I'm on Earth therefore Humans are technically not actually Aliens and I should not kill them"? As to the crossover it was always just going to be a bit at the end of this show as the main story takes place in another Universe. |

That said if they could change it why not have it kill Kryptonions as well. I wonder if it will come into play with The Dominators they could use it against them. |

Apparently another Supergirl Flash Crossover will happen in the 2nd half of both series.
Don't think it will be a crossover using both shows but just like last year with Flash on her Earth for 1 episode. |

They could have some super villain somehow simply swapping Flash and Supergirl for a couple of eps. So we get Flash doing all the OCD/DEO/EGG(?) business and Supergirl helping around the Hadron Science play thingie.
OR one of them goes visiting again but when they return something goes wrong and the other one goes back instead. |
