Stargirl: Season 1 Episode 2: S.T.R.I.P.E.: Review

Stargirl's second episode ups the stakes and produces another great episode.

The story line with Brainwave hunting Stargirl was a great story line due to its suspense, and performance by Christopher James Baker. Brainwave is one intimidating villain, and Baker helps due to his voice, and looks that he gives.

The scene with Brainwave and and Wizard, a member of the Injustice society of America, was great. The fact that another member of the Injustice Society is living in this town has me wondering, due all of the members of the Injustice Society live in Blue Valley? Christopher James Baker showcased how intimidating he can be, and I'm wondering if Wizard doesn't want to be a member of the Injustice anymore.

The final battle scene between Brainwave, Stargirl, and S.T.R.I.P.E. was a great fight scene due to the way that they were able to take down Brainwave. I couldn't help but chuckle when they took Brainwave to the hospital and they claimed that he had a stroke, due to him threatening to kill Stargirl's mother and claim that she died of a stroke.

The ending between Stargirl and S.T.R.I.P.E. was great. I love the chemistry between Brec Bassinger and Luke Wilson. I am also really looking forward to the new Justice Society of America being formed, and when they get more villains to help them.

The ending with Icicle showing up Blue Valley and going into the Injustice's headquarters was great, due to Solomon Grundy's small cameo, and the reveal that Barbara's boss is a member of the Injustice Society of America. I am really looking forward to when all of the Injustice is reunited, and what kind of twists they have planned for who is a member.

Overall, Stargirl ups the stakes, and continues to advance the story line and produce another great episode, which also features an intimidating villain, strong performances from its cast, and some surprising plot twists.

Out of a 10 I would give it...
