Instead she decides to pull the tanker out of harms way.

Kara tries and fails to use her super-breath to blow the fire out but it just makes things worse. Her friend Winn is acting as her personal police scanner, finding crimes and emergencies for her to tackle.This is where we hear another comic book classic line: “This looks like a job for Supergirl!” it’s cheesy but I love it! Winn sends her to tackle a fire at the docks near and oil tanker.

When she isn’t flexing her muscles with the DEO, Kara is still trying to be the hero of National City. There is a small reference to Christopher Reeve’s Superman as we see Kara fighting missiles, much like he did many years ago.She too is trying to see what she is capable of and she even breaks the sound barrier when she flies away from the tests! Kara thinks she is ready for field work but her sister Alex and Director Henshaw are still unsure about her capabilities. She is full of confidence after having defeated Vartox and the DEO are now putting her through a series of tests which she appears to handle very easily. It would be rude not to start with Kara herself. Let’s see how episode 2 did in our recap and review! The character interaction was good for the most part and there were plenty of comic book references for the fan-boys. It was a bit of a shaky start with some dodgy effects and some dialogue that would have been more at place in a teen drama. After her introduction in last week’s pilot episode, Kara Zor-El is back on our screens in the second instalment.
