Last episode of Stargirl ended with the sudden and unexpected appearance of the Ultra-Humanite, a very dangerous foe of the JSA for decades. Considering that, obvious raw power to one side, the Ultra-Hunanite has a few specialties that are very troubling, it makes me wonder about a few things. Actually, it incites the same level of paranoia as much of the Skrull presence in Secret Invasion.
There’s still no real progress on finding out who killed the Gambler, Cindy seems to have dropped out of sight, the JSA still isn’t working like a team, and Pat is recovering from his recent trip to the Shadowlands. Add in the Mahkent grandparents really sliding to the dark side, and there’s a lot to chose from for the title “Frenemies: Chapter Nine: The Monsters.”
The first season was a girl trying to become a hero. The second has been about a pervasive, brooding evil, at times more like a horror movie than a superhero action series. Now, Stargirl and her allies band together to try and end the malevolence of Eclipso as the Summer School series comes to an end with “Chapter 13.”
Stargirl’s Summer School is almost done. It’s been an impressive season, with the evil of Eclipso and the havoc he (it?) has wreaked throughout Blue Valley and on the JSA.
