8 Things To Expect From The Flash's Crossover With Supergirl

2. Sharing Villains

Supergirl has been a far more enjoyable show that many expected, but one of the problems that Kara€™s outings have had centres on the show€™s villains. Sure, Bizarro may have proved a fantastic addition, the White Martian was a truly savage villain, and the dynamic with Astra is a great one, but so many of the rogues involved in the show so far have been the very definition of villain-of-the-week. Now villain-of-the-week can be a good thing at times €“ a one-off rogue turning up and going all-out and amped up to the max in order to take down a hero €“ but plenty of Supergirl€™s rogues gallery to date have been formulaic, bland and just uninteresting. Could we see Green Arrow or The Flash help out the Maid of Might be loaning her some of their villains? In amongst the confines of Iron Heights and beyond are some hugely riveting villains who could do well going up against the Girl of Steel. The only concern here is that you would have to make sure that any rogues used weren't ones that Supergirl would be comically too powerful for.
