Episode 2 of Stargirl focuses on characterization, but it also delivers a spine chilling ending, and the arrival of the Shade.
Jenny's opening flashback was a very sad one. The lady who was watching over her was very mean to her. I really hope we see more of Jenny as the season goes on. Ysa Penarejo did an excellent job.
Courtney becoming jealous of Jade spending time with Pat was hilarious. Brec Bassinger did an excellent job at portraying a very jealous version of Stargirl was funny.
The Shade arriving on the scene was so exciting. Jonathan Cake has already sold me, even though he has only appeared in two scenes. I know he is after the Eclipso diamond for a reason, but I think he is trying to destroy Eclipso. We shall see!
Jenny learning how to control the ring was a good story line. I know that she left to go and find her brother, and I hope they both reappear to help the JSA take down Eclipso. I am impressed with how they wrote Jenny, they got Green Lantern right!
I couldn't believe that ending! Eclipso talked Bobbie Burman into trying to kill her step-daughter, Cindy Burman. I felt so bad for Bobbie as she looked so happy when Cindy was gone, but she went back to being her usual sad self. I was stunned when Eclipso killed Bobbie. But the thing that stunned me the most, was that Cindy was angry at Eclipso for killing her. Interesting side of Cindy that we never saw before, I wonder how they will proceed going forward with her characterization
Eclipso reminds me of Venom, and it is pretty obvious that he does not want to serve Cindy, he is only using her as a vessel. But, he will get out, and I am willing to bet that he will possess either Yolanda, or her younger brother. Heck, it might even end up being Mike he gets.
On a quick note, I couldn't believe that Yolanda's parents made her go to summer school. Her parents are so mean to her. Wouldn't bother me at all if she moved away from them, or if they end up dying (But I think that is too extreme LOL).
Out of a 10 I would give it...
