Okay, I rewatched the episode and when Kara is interrogating Julia/Purity she mentions that Julia was adopted in 1993. Off by two years. :-(

I’m hoping Imra’s “secret” is that they actually came back to the 21st century to help defeat the world killers. And no, I don’t want there to be an affair. I want at least one of them—and I figure it’ll probably be Kara—to say “No, you’re/I’m married and you don’t let something like that go without a better reason…

So apparently Purity’s powers are sonic in nature. Didn’t these people learn anything from dealing with Silver Banshee? Winn just invented the high tech earplugs Barry made two years ago. And her sonic blasts are more like wind than loud noise. Earplugs wouldn’t have helped. I made the same criticism after the…

Alex has always been dreadful but this was over the top even for her. I thought of the way Kara acted in the “Alex” episode toward the end of last season. The writers made her an out of control bitch so Maggie could talk sense into her and she could have an epiphany. This time they made Alex (even more) out of control…

I’m the one who guessed Ruby’s age at 10 or 11 based on the talent show. She was in the same show with kids who were obviously in single digits and middle school starts with 6th grade. That would have put Ruby in 5th grade or younger. Why would two different schools have a joint talent show? Add to that the way she’s…

Hi. I checked and it was Adventure #316. Ultra Boy pretended to be a wanted criminal and was expelled from the Legion to defeat powerful aliens. It’s also the issue that established that Phantom Girl was in love with him.

When I read that we were going to find out Mon-El and Imra’s marriage wasn’t as rosy as it seemed I groaned because I could see the triangle crap coming. Time for Kara to suck it up and tell him to do the right thing and work on his marriage.

I think the secret is that they came back in time to help Kara fight the world killers.

Some of us have been Legion fans for years. The first comic I bought that didn’t feature Donald Duck was a copy of Adventure Comics with the Legion, back when Edmond Hamilton was writing it. I think I may have been 10.

I figure Imra can’t be written as a telepath, otherwise Mon-El wouldn’t be able to keep secrets from her, and that’s a big part of his character. The rest I’m not sure except no, I don’t think we’ll see any more Legionnaires.

They’re secret in the sense that they’re pretending to be the FBI whenever they’re out in public. I don’t think the general public is supposed to know about the DEO.

Ruby calling Lena is a result of the actress not having much else to do this episode and the writers wanting to give her screen time. Not that hard to figure out.

That was my initial thought as well. Then it turned out to be the usual bad writing.

It was Zod that Superman thought he was fighting last season after he got zapped by Rhea’s hallucination ray.

I don’t remember any mention in-show of what happened to either of them. Max Lord may well be in prison but at the end of season 1 Lucy was second in command of the DEO. Yet there’s been no mention of her.

His behavior also makes his choice of a hero name ironic. A “Guardian” is someone who protects people. His secret identity isn’t “Justice Bringer,” or “Psycho Killer,” or “Avenging Sword,” or “Punisher” (I know, Marvel wouldn’t let them use that one anyway). If he wants to be a “Guardian,” he needs to act like one.

I also wonder what happened to the alien detector. Kara burned out the circuits (or something) with her heat vision. That means it shouldn’t work on anyone. Granted, Lena may not have access to very many aliens but surely it would eventually come out that the device didn’t work any more, and she’d wonder why.

Seems like she was responding more to being called “Sweetheart,”and the “grabbing women” remark was an attempt to shift focus. What if he’d called her “Miss”? Would she still have broken his ribs?

Or being a Neanderthal jerk. If your woman is clearly capable of taking care of herself--which Lena is—you don’t need to butt in except to feel macho.

It would be an interesting conversation between James and Kara too, since her hands aren’t exactly clean when it comes to killing. And isn’t this the same James who was shocked--I say, shocked!--and deeply offended last season that Snapper Carr would think he was capable of killing someone? Either James is as…
