Kevin Smith is returning to Supergirl to direct his second episode of Supergirl's second season. Well we know that, in fact he has already wrapped on his second episode. What we didn't know what the synopsis and title for the episode which we can share today! The episode is titled "Distant Sun", and also features the return of original Wonder Woman, Lynda Carter as The President of the United States! Here is the synopsis:

LYNDA CARTER RETURNS AS PRESIDENT MARSDIN; KEVIN SMITH DIRECTS – A large bounty is put out on Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) and aliens from far and near attack National City intent on taking out the woman of steel. Alex (Chyler Leigh) and Maggie (Floriana Lima) run into Maggie’s ex-girlfriend, Emily (guest star Hayley Sales), who is in town for a week. Hank (David Harewood) gets an interesting order from President Marsdin (guest star Lynda Carter). Kevin Smith directed the episode written by Gabriel Llanas & Anna Musky-Goldwyn (#217).

Didn't Lobo join the justice league at some point?

Quoting RobertAnthony:


I don't know if "the main man" will be a part of this. Besides he's a Superman villain.

Alien Bounty hunters after Kara?

Kevin Smith directing?

Oh, PLEASE can we see Lobo show up and Kara knock him through a few buildings?

Pretty please?


Buildings are so passe. Knock him through a *mountain*. And be waiting to slug him again when he comes out the far side.

WOW,a bounty on Supergirls head,sounds bad for our favorite heroine. Now who could possibly want Supergirl dead. Maybe Lex. Should be interesting.


No, sounds bad for bounty hunters.

And why this Emily for Maggie? Isn't Maggie Sawyer in some canon linked to Kathy Kane, aka Batwoman?


My theory has been that anything that is explicitly Bat-mythos is preempted by Fox and Gotham. Whether it's specifically because of that show or because (as rumored) Fox has first refusal on Bat stuff as part of the deal to release Batman '66 on Blu-ray I can't say.


Not really a theory, you may have a point. Besides Batman 1966-68 was put out by 20th Century Fox for original air on ABC and by Fox for any and all syndication. But yet Warner Home Video has distributed the DVD sets. And besides a block like that from Fox specifically for Gotham, could put the old kabash on seeing Batgirl show up on Supergirl. It's ironic because in an upcoming comic book, we see the two team up. But, is the Batgirl Barbara Gordon, or another canon?

Mysteries abound, gang.

Also, what...or whom could've made Supergirl become a somewhat vigilante (like Arrow)

Supergirl doesn't have to be a vigilante to have a bounty put out on her. Organized crime syndicates put out bounties on witness to keep them from testifying in court, that's why the witness protection program exists. I'm thinking Cadmus is responsible for the bounty. Lillian Luthor has to be ticked off (I'm using PG language here) that Supergirl keeps spoiling her plans. It would appeal to Lillian's warped sense of justice to use aliens to take out Supergirl.


That brie would not surprise me. Lillian Luthor's wonderlust is driving her INSANE in the brain.

Didn't Mon-El's parents bring a whole ship of Daxamites lol? Or are they that much weaker than Kryptonians that they can't attack on their own?
