The new JSA continues to form, while the Injustice League's plans continue to unfold.
The opening flashback with Hourman and his wife had a different feel to it. It reminded me a lot of the Amazing Spider-Man franchise, in a good way. Solomon Grundy arriving and killing them was a shock.
Beth Chapel becoming Dr. Mid-Nite was a surprise as well. I loved the personality of the character, and the actress does an excellent job as this character.
The new Hourman is an interesting character. He could easily end up becoming a villain. I hope that they try to develop him into a more interesting and likeable character, as he was kind of annoying in this episode.
Brainwave's son Henry King Jr. getting his fathers powers has so much potiential. They could either have him follow in his fathers's footsteps, or become a new member of the Justice Society of America, either way I am really excited to see what they do with him.
I am really interested to see who the final members of the JSA will be. Green Lantern's ring being shown was a great twist, and I am looking forward to Pat confronting Courtney about trying to recruit new members behind his back.
The ending with a shipment coming into Blue Valley that is for the Injustice League is interesting. I really hope that they revela what their plan is very soon, and who the other members of the Injustice League are.
Overall, Stargirl's fifth episode is another great one, and it continues to advance the plot very well, while keeping its intrigue at the same time.

Stargirl: Season 1 Episode 4: Wildcat: Review
This review will be brief, due to the fact that I am battling allergies.
Episode 4 of Stargirl makes you sympathetic towards the new Wildcat and has some great character development for her also, it also asks more questions as to who will be part of the new JSA, and who else is involved with the Injustice League. This is once again a great episode, and the show manages to keep me intrigued.

Stargirl: Season 1 Episode 3: Icicle: Review
Icicle arrives and quickly makes the show more serious.
The opening flashback to Icicle's wife dying was pretty sad, until I found out that she knew that he was a villain. I know that they mentioned that she was exposed to some kind of chemical, but I am hoping we get a flashback to what happened.
Icicle telling Wizard that Brainwave was attacked and is in a coma was a great scene as well. Icicle also having the scene with Stargirl's mother was a good scene as well. I am genuinely interested in what his plans for America are.
The fight scene between Stargirl, S.T.R.I.P.E., and Icicle was shocking. Icicle nearly destroying a school bus, and then killing Wizard's son made my jaw drop. I was really liking Joey to, and when Joey's parents found out that he died, it made the scene even more sadder.
Courtney visiting the hall of Justice at the end, after Pat took her there, and getting ready to recruit her own Justice Society of America is going to backfire on her. She is very arrogant going into this, and I have a feeling that one of her teammates is going to get killed due to her arrogance. The hall of Justice was a great scene, due to its many Easter Eggs.
Wizard arriving at Icicle's house to kill him was another shocking scene. I was sure that Icicle was going to tell Wizard that Stargirl and S.T.R.I.P.E. killed his boy, so he could make Wizard more powerful. Icicle killing him made my jaw drop, as did the reveal that Icicle's parents know that he is a villain, but don't care. Another reveal that shocked me, was that one of the students that took a liking to Yolanda Montez, was Icicle's son. Another plot twist I did not see coming!!
I prediction I have is that Stargirl's mother is going to separate from Pat, and will end up having an affair with Icicle. The reason why I say that is because it looked like Icicle was flirting with her during their scenes together, and the way he admired her ideas only adds fuel to the fire in my opinion.
Overall, episode 3 of Stargirl ups the stakes and produces another fantastic episode due to its darker tone, Easter Eggs, fantastic writing, incredible direction, jaw dropping plot twists, stunning deaths, and strong performances from Neil Jackson, Joe Knezevich, and Will Deusnir.

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.

Stargirl: Season 1 Episode 1: Pilot: Review
DC has a new show, that boasts plenty of promise, and lots of charm from its lead actress.
The opening was awesome, it looked like something straight out of a comic book. I loved the part where Starman told S.T.R.I.P.E. that he was not be the next Starman. I was laughing so hard. The CGI and villains in this opening were amazing also.
The story line of Courtney and her family moving into a new town felt like the perfect old school vibe to this new series. I am looking forward to seeing how they develop her classmates, and what kind of roles they will play in the future.
The scene where the staff took her to the drive-in had me dying of laughter. I completely lost it when she destroyed the car. Once again, the pilot had great humor, and I am really loving the old school charm that this show has.
The ending where she was confronted by Brainwave, a member of the Injustice Society, was surprising, as I didn't expect her to confront any villains until later in the series. Christopher James Baker played a great part as Brainwave, and I am looking forward to seeing him again, and other villains that they have planned for this show.
The last scene where Stargirl was confronted by S.T.R.I.P.E. had me dying of laughter. I did not expect him to be the giant robot from Crisis on Infinite Earths! I am excited to see him train her in the upcomming episodes.
Overall, DC has a new show in town that looks to be a fun ride due to its tone, old school vibes, well done humor, and strong performances from its lead actress.
