Supergirl: Ranking Every Character From Worst To Best

Lena Luthor's arrival on the show had the majority of comic book fans excited at the possibility of Lex showing up at some point, but none of them could have predicted just how pivotal she would become to the story.

Lena is, without a doubt, one of the best-developed characters on the show. On the surface, she was everything that her brother was: The powerful and successful owner of Luthorcorp. But, in being so, she highlighted that what lay beneath the surface was actually far more important.

Constantly fighting to get out from under her brother's dark shadow, Lena has proven herself to just about every character on the show at least twice. Furthermore, she's worked with Supergirl and the D.E.O. countless times in order to stop the greatest evils of the world and, in doing so, has come through for them more times than just about anyone.

Though the writers have toyed with the whole "what if Lena's really evil?" trope far too many times, the fact that she's still one of the good guys says a lot about her strength of character and it reinforces that not all Luthors are evil. Let's just hope they don't squander all of their hard work in the upcoming season because, when all is said and done, Lena is one of the show's biggest assets.
