I am not famliar with the Supergirl comics so I don't know if she has faced this situation before. But thinking about it, I can't see Kara killing Sam if she is unaware of what she does as Reign.

I have no problems with superheroes killing like Superman and Batman have done in the DCEU. With Reign however it's different because Sam is basically a vessel being used. It will be a brave move on the part of CW if Kara kills Sam because she is technically innocent.

That's okay. For one, the 'Supergirl' comic books are very different than the TV show as I mentioned on my previous post above and Kara was a more edgy and aggressive character who was pissed off over her planet being destroyed and wanted to find out who was responsible for it and kill them. Kara was more alien than Clark and less trusting of humans too 'cause she spent most of her life on Krypton and didn't have the years on earth that Clark did. She was not a symbol of hope either like Superman either and the government saw her as a threat 'cause of her anger and her being more powerful than Superman. Those were some of the main things that separated her from Superman and she didn't hold back with her powers and enjoyed fighting villains. The Kara in the comic books would snap Sam's neck without any hesitation if it meant saving millions of lives.

Thanks for your posts explaining what the comic Supergirl is like, and they're different all right. While it would be nice to see a more serious and tougher, Kara I don't see it happening. The CW is partly owned by Warner Brothers, and after the negative reaction to the brooding Superman, I think they'll keep Kara the way she is. The show was cancelled once before so the studio will try to avoid alienating viewers and will just stick to the CW formula.
