My Adventures with Superman's season 2 finale was epic. Brainiac is winning and getting ready to destroy the Earth. In typical anime fashion, there was no intro, which makes sense since Brainiac was winning. I was surprised that Hank Henshaw was part of the next attempt to stop Brainiac with missle fire from planes, but obviously, it was ineffective. Interestingly enough, Brainiac fired on the planes, destroying many of them. We don't officially know what happened to Hank. If he survived, this definitely sets up his transformation into Cyborg Superman. I did make theories of who would be able to help with this invasion, but I didn't expect them all to happen. Livewire, Heat Wave, Silver Banshee, Mist, and Rough House came to help Superman and Kara, while John Henry Irons came to help Lois, Jimmy, and Steve in the Steel suit. Even Sam Lane, who clearly recruited all of them, came to help Amanda Waller and Superman. While Amanda did choose to aid Sam, it doesn't make up for the harm she caused. I will at least give her some credit. Even when the odds were against her, Amanda Waller still chose to fight to save the Earth. That's more than Lex Luthor did. He showed his true colors as he ran off to save himself, as at the end of the day, Lex Luthor cares only about himself. It was pretty cool to see Steel, Livewire, Heat Wave, Mist, Silver Banshee, and Rough House help Superman and Kara get to Brainiac's ship. Unfortunately, Brainiac's mind control over Kara was still in effect as he took complete control of her. Brainiac then confirmed that he was the one who destroyed Krypton, and it was for such a petty reason. The kryptonians were losing their war to an enemy that we still have no confirmation on. Whoever they were, the kryptonians were negotiating peace with them. The theory that the kryptonians were at war with Darkseid now makes no sense because Darkseid would never negotiate peace with Krypton. The only planet that Apokalips has ever been forced to make peace with is New Genesis, and Darkseid has been shown to risk breaking that truce before. Not that it matters since Brainiac destroyed Krypton to prevent himself from being irrelevant in a possible time of peace since he was made for war. Seeing Clark shed tears is telling as it shows that despite Krypton's mistakes, he still has humanity to care for his people and be sad for their deaths as they at least tried to make peace in the end. It was fortunate that Jor-El found out what Brainiac was up to and got his son out beforehand. He probably managed to tell his brother Zor-El, which led to Kara's survival too, but unfortunately, Brainiac got to her. Brainiac is just so determined to win at this point that he used the Eradicator override of his mind control over Kara to force her to his complete control. Once again, Clark had to fight his cousin, and it was probably harder this time because of how much Clark had grown to love his cousin. I'm glad that not only does Clark not give up on saving his cousin, but he does it in a way that is true to who Superman is. He holds her and tries to reach her. I also like how Jimmy and Lois help to try to reach her, too. I was annoyed with Lois' previous animosity with Kara, even if it was somewhat reasonable, but Lois helping to save Kara here more than makes up for it. We also get to see Kara continue with her resistance against Brainiac's mind control. It was cool to see Superman and Kara send Brainiac's ship to the sun together, but Brainiac just wouldn't give up. His Black Zero protocol seems to be powering his laser with the kryptonite Jimmy left behind. I was actually worried that even with Superman and Kara so close to the yellow sun, they would still be in trouble with the kryptonite. Kara even had to push Clark out the way of the kryptonite attack, causing her to fall into the sun. Even so, Clark still went into the sun to save Kara. It took 2 seasons for this version of Superman and even Supergirl to finally realize that they get their power from the sun. It was awesome to see Kara finally get her official Supergirl suit, and even more awesome to see both Superman and Supergirl supercharged by the sun to where they could overcome Brainiac's kryptonite weapon. Even so, Brainiac still used a large kryptonite blade for one final attack. It was fitting for Kara to be the one to defeat Brainiac, even though she got a temporary scar from the attack and was out for a few days. It had a nice way to end the season. Kara survived the battle, met Jonathan and Martha officially becoming part of the Kent Family, and she got to officially play catch with Clark as a nice callback and bonding experience with the kryptonian cousins. I was surprised that there was a party at the Kent farm with Perry White, Vicky Vale, John Henry Irons, Sam Lane, Cat Grant and Jimmy's flamebird team, which raises questions about Clark's secret. Although, it is nice to see the good guys gather to have a party celebrating victory over Brainiac. It also seems like Mallah, Brain, and Kara are working on construction. It's nice that the Daily Planet is printing the truth about how Superman, Supergirl, and many people in Metropolis helped save the Earth. So, even if some of Superman's reputation is damaged, much of it is salvaged and stable. Supergirl also gained good favor on Earth for helping to save the world, and Vicki couldn't help but use Supergirl to scoop Perry. Amanda Waller hasn't made up for the harm she caused, considering that the people reported her still at large, but she tends to beat the system. To make things worse, Lex Luthor is still gaining power with Lexcorp and has Slade Wilson working with him, which in itself was an unexpected surprise given their rivalry. I worry about the trouble they will cause in the next season since Lex Luthor is Superman's nemesis. It was nice to see Lois officially turn down Vicki's offer. We all knew she would, but it's still nice to see her tell Clark, especially when he was willing to make the comute work if she did take the job. It was also nice to see Clark and Lois have a double date with Kara and Jimmy before Superman and Supergirl were needed, flying together with their respective dates. Nice end to season 2. The only downside was that Superman's costume still didn't have the red trunks added in by the end, but I do like Kara's Supergirl suit, and I can't wait for season 3.
