Supergirl Season 2: What’s In The Pod?

Now that the Supergirl season finale has aired on the East Coast, we have some questions. The biggest, of course, is “When are we going to find out about Supergirl Season 2?

We’re assuming that’ll happen so the next order of business is wondering what it is that came to Earth in a pod much like Kara’s. Here are some guesses on our end:

Krypto: A Superdog. But do we really need a Superdog on TV? We’re pet lovers here, but that might be kind of anticlimactic.

Power Girl: What if a Supergirl from another Earth came through on a pod like Kara’s? If not the adult Power Girl, maybe “another” Kara who looks like her younger self?

Superboy: Because why not? We think his story will be saved for Cadmus, though.

Jeremiah Danvers: An adult probably can’t fit in the ship, but maybe some Kryptonians kept it for safe-keeping of some sort.

A Message: What if there’s not a being in there, but another message or collection of messages from Krypton, warning of a Season 2 threat?

What do you think it was? Leave comments below or come post on our Supergirl forum over the summer! Individual episode discussion for “Better Angels” can be found here.

  • I think it will be either her mom or dad or maybe someone who survived from krypton or it could be some kind of device to help kara

  • hmm. well your oppinion i think ill go with the message option but kara said Oh My God so it might be some kind of kryptonian source or it could be someone from krypton but she still said OMG well it probably be BONES or a remmembrance

  • oi yoi yoi. you missed all the more obvious choices - everyone is guessing zod, or a member of her family. super-dog? how can i get whatever you've been smoking?

  • So why did they report hiring a "young Clark Kent" sometime around mid season and then not use him?? Will he be used for season 2 without them even getting an official order?

    • They did, in "For The Girl Who Has Everything." It's just outlets (including this one, unfortunately) made a bigger deal out of it than it needed to be.

  • It needn't be from another universe. Kara and her pod could have been quantum duplicated while in the Phantom Zone, and this is literally her again.

  • When I watched live I thought it was Zor-El only because in the Post-Flashpoint continuity in the comics he was the villain Cyborg Superman. The only reason against that is I think they are setting Jeremiah Danvers up to be Cyborg Superman.

  • I think it is her Mother in the pod. And Jeremiah danvers is Kal El.. Hence the messaging.
