Could the dark side of Lena Luthor be making a comeback? She does say in next week's new Supergirl episode that "the people responsible for this should be erased from the world". Pretty haunting threat coming from her because you know she has the power to do it. Also, keep in mind next week's episode will be the third episode directed by fan favorite director, Kevin Smith. Originally titled, "two rings", "Damage" looks to take on Lena Luthor's reputation stemming from the lead-based particles she used to rid Earth from the Daxamites. Did the particles do more harm than good? Check out the trailer below:

That's what I'm referring to, plot patterns. The similarities are very much there. Differences being the obvious, this time it's female characters and this time the villain has a kid. But generally speaking, the premise is the same: good guy is the bad guy but doesn't know they're the bad guy.
Sorry, probably neither, actually. Although the plot patterns may seem similar on the surface, this is a VERY female-centric season arc, from what I've gathered thus far. May even turn out to be a situation that Superman himself flew away from, once upon a time....
Which logo are you thinking? We do have a season 3 desktop in our members section
to Admin: can you give us the new Logo of SG in the episode (i wanna put another new Wallpaper desktop on my laptop,Lol) Thank You
I agree with the acquaintance thing. Davis and Clark we're more like 'a friend of a friend' to each other. But with Sam and Kara it looks like they'll actually become friends to each other with no buffering middle (wo)man.
I find it odd that tptb touted the Sam to Reign storyline as something 'new' when it's similar to the Davis to Doomsday storyline. Maybe they forgot about his arc? Or maybe they don't count it since it's not part of the arrowverse?
And this is precisely why I made the comment that for storytelling's sake, a morally grey Luthor is the best way to go.
IMO, In that scenario, it is just as much a bad Luthor would come into play as well. That is not what I'm talking about at all.
A morally grey Luthor should be just that not a combination of good and grey, she needs to keep everyone off balance, even herself... where from one scenario to the next you have no clue what direction she will go in. So, with that, some times she will make the right decision, sometimes she won't...IF SHE is always good, that is predictable, if she is always bad, that is predictable. NOT KNOWING is what makes the character interesting to play and interesting to watch.
It does make an interesting comparison though, especially given the producers statements about watching the villain develop out of a good person throughout the course of the season being a new concept.
Quoting Ms.Luthor:
I noticed that too. Clark and Davis were mainly 'friends' cause of their individual friendships with Chloe. Whereas Kara and Sam (although introduced to each other by Lena) have become close enough to share girl's nights and show up to give support to Sam's kid. So I think the relationship between Sam and Kara is shaping up to be stronger than the relationship between Clark and Davis ever was.
How is keeping a good Luthor predictable? It might be boring like you said but the only predictable type of Luthor there is is a bad one. A good Luthor kinda (to me) falls into the same idea of a morally grey one. Because due to her last name, even if she's good, everyone is always going to second guess her. I feel that a good Luthor and a morally grey one would sort of intersect at some points.
If I had to choose, bad or good Luthor, I'd choose good. But for the sake of storytelling, a morally grey Luthor is by far the best option.
