Supergirl Mehcad Brooks is Jimmy Olsen

[Kelly]

It's been heavily implied that he used to be more like "classic" Jimmy. But YEARS of being around/learning from Superman (combined with getting older/more experienced) has inspired him to be more mature, confident, and sure of himself. Which is a perfectly valid avenue to take the character imo. Also, it speaks really highly of Clark's character as well.

Oh and as an aside, I continue to be impressed with how much natural chemistry Brooks and Benoist have. It doesn't matter if they're just talking to each other, flirting, being confidantes, or heck even arguing. They just play off of each other really well.

I agree, and can say that about this cast as a whole...Rappaport casting hit a home run with this cast.

Say it again for the people in the back.

The character of Jimmy became a lot more of a "man" in the 1980's and 90's, complete with muscles and charm. And he's changed jobs before in the comics. The New 52 took him back to the younger, goofier version, but I don't think it's really out of character. There's a precent for it, and it makes perfect sense.

Please tell me Black Canary is coming to Supergirl!!

 

[Lencho01]

I highly doubt that's happening.

 

[Thome216]

But that would be soo damn awesome! Crime fighter by night and ADA of National City by day.

lol she's have to be reconnised as an ada there. yeah if and when she come back she can visit super girls earth. but the ada thing is over. even if reality shifts on the flarrow verse. i8t's that super girls earth doesn't recognize her as ADA. just as how barry didn't stay long enough to be recognized as CSI.

Barry was recognis as a smart guy that gave them tech while he was there and how to lock up meta humans like Live Wire. which was the most creative as scientist we've seen barry ever.

But that's it.

 

[Thome216]

No, I'm referring to an Earth-S version of Laurel, not the Arrow version. And yeah, she probably does not have a doppelganger on Earth-S, seeing as Barry didn't find anyone from Earth-1 having a copy on Kara's Earth, but I can dream.

lol Barry didn't try to find his own doppelganger on super girls earth lol. just like how he didn't bother with certain things on earth 2 like when joe asked about earth 2 wally etc. he gave him self too little time and he wasn't thinking about that... Barry just didn't bother with it. .

 

[vantheman77]

I hope Kara can find the Earth-S version of Barry and Dinah Laurel.

"You guys have Central City but you don't have S.T.A.R. Labs. No Cisco Ramon, no Harrison Wells, no Caitlin Snow. Nobody who's gonna be able to help me get back home."

That probably means no Barry Allen, either.

well if you were flash fan you'd also know that their alternates have taken very differ paths in life the father otu they go to other earth.s like when they told joe that there might be a scientist joe out there and he reacted like "what????!!! "and was about to leave the room hearing that cause he couldn't conceive the idea.

yeah that maybe a thing that there's no star labs on super girls earth that also mean's the barry there isn't a SCI or in the police force at all but still exists still. he just chose a different profession same with Cisco who may have went into the arts instead of science and is more of I'm better in the back ground kinda person then the one on flash who's all a genius with tech on barry's , but isn't known to the public as such the way dr wells was on their the flarrowverse earth .

it just mean he would have had to stay longer remember what happened in small ville clark was aware the JSA existed cause most of the heroes some how managed to on the down low and this after he met oliver and his version of barry the latter was common thief and con artist with his powers. who knows what their alternates on super girl earth are actually doing? since it was show like with small ville flash.

"If you were a Flash fan..."



And please, punctuation. I can't understand **** you're saying.

I wasn't saying that as an insult you at all.

I was just saying that they made clear in the of the flash show with them saying on another earth that isn't earth one joe (barry's adopted dad) can be a scientist which joe himself couldn't fathom that . w


With each earth different versions of the same person have taken such different paths varied in their personal lives and have different personality's that super girls earth Barry Allen could be a taxi driver for alwe know and not living in central city at all. and that's even if he's in the USA at all.


that how the multiverse works .

I wasn't trying insult you . That's why I brought up the flash from small ville that was con artist and thief S HS PROFESSION IN LIFE ,before joining that small ville Oliver Queen justice league, which they created. and Small ville'S Flash stayed low key as a super powered person that whole time on that earth. til he met clark the same as the JSA , til they revealed themselves to clark too.

But people didn't notice how active the JSA were on small ville earth.

It doesn't matter. Barry said there was no Cisco, no Wells, no Caitlin, which means he DID look for them.

If there's no version of those three, it's not a stretch to think there's no version of Laurel Lance, either.

Case dismissed.

seeing that he didn't find a wally I don't buy it he didn't have enough days to search the entire planet. the same as he didn't on earth 2. and was shock when joe ask about earth 2 wally. and was left stumped. Cisco on super girl wouldn't do the same job as his earth .


he can't be sure what that version of cisco is doing there on super girls earth , he could be a hot dog stand owner for all he knows. and not in central ether. two to three day's isn't enough time to find out. as he did the same on earth 2 in his own show and stump by his adopted dad. cause he did same thing there withe amount of stay time.

anyways this is james thread and we're off topic.


I don't want to derail it any further.

You can try to find a loophole all you want, that's fine. But the writers clearly made a point to state that there are no doppelgangers on Supergirl's Earth. Now you believe what you want to believe, good for you.

same for you cause they made clear on his show he's not always in the know of all things and barry makes bad mistake often chose wise. now lets stay on the subject of james.

Uh-huh, yeah.

[vantheman77]

I still think Black Canary will be in Supergirl.

 

[flickchick85]

I still think Black Canary will be in Supergirl.

Like, the Dinah (Laurel) Lance of Supergirl's universe becomes the real, not-some-alterna-verse Black Canary? I would LOVE that. Give us another go at Birds of Prey, CW. They deserve it. I think Katie Cassidy could really shine in the role if she wasn't bogged down by all that Arrow baggage.

"Heroes come in all shapes, sizes, genders, colors, creeds and religions. Heroes are made by circumstance not by birth. Heroes carry the weight of the burdens of the innocent on their shoulders without a complaint. Heroes persevere in the face of adversity and when all seems bleak they rise to the occasion to find their light. A hero's light shines so brightly that at illuminates the light in others so that they may find their heroism."
