Supergirl Trailer: 25 Easter Eggs And References You Need To See

5. Cyborg Superman

The Harrison Wells of Supergirl looks set to be Hank Henshaw, a former CIA Agent who is now the head of the Department of Extra-Normal Operations. In the comic books though, Hank is better known as Cyborg Superman, an insane Superman villain who transferred his conciousness into a metal body after a terrible accident he blames the Man of Steel for. Following Superman's apparent death, Hank posed as him in a bid to destroy his reputation. There's no indication that any of that has happened in this world, but the reveal that he has a robotic body would certainly be an interesting twist at the end of the pilot. In all likelihood though, the series will probably take a slow build approach to that transformation.
