That battle comes, opening “Kara”, and it’s more bonkers than perhaps any battle Supergirl has ever done, as the show goes all out to send the action out on a memorable note, with Lex and Nyxly summoning soldiers of Supergirl‘s past (including Overgirl, Red Tornado, Metallo, Parasite, the Nightmare Monster and the Kryptonian Dragon). But what’s the real reason for that? Well, it’s to set up a battle that much grander in the final episode. I will admit that the show has gone round in circles with Nyxly’s pursuit of the totems and the first part of the finale does that a little too, as the Super Friends are ultimately successful in retrieving Esme but again find themselves in a position where they have only part of a totem that Nyxly and Lex need.

This set the stage for the final showdown as the Super Friends agreed to meet with him and retrieve Esme – in exchange for giving him the rest of the Totems. The first of them, “The Last Gauntlet” is focused on wrapping up the season’s story, and even though it doesn’t quite do that, it does allow Kara to make some important realizations heading into the final episode.Īfter the shocking events of the previous episode, the penultimate one had plenty of stakes right out of the gate, as the team reeled from William’s death and both Alex and Kelly were determined to rescue Esme from Lex and Nyxly. The series finale of Supergirl is literally the final two episodes of season 6, and they are two rather different installments. With that, let’s get into the two-hour series finale, and look at how “The Last Gauntlet” and “Kara” sent the show out on a high. Thankfully, Supergirl wouldn’t dare do that. It also left many of us concerned how the show would wrap up six seasons worth of storylines, because recent years have seen plenty of shows alienate their fans with outlandish conclusions. Supergirl has always been a light, one that shined remarkably bright amid its many highs and lows, so news of its impending end last September left us all struggling with the fact that it would be leaving screens. Those skies haven’t always been clear and there have been storms along the way, but the Girl of Steel always found a way to entertain and inspire the millions of viewers who tuned in across its run. ![]() That’s what we were promised when Kara Zor-El first took to the skies of National City in the pilot episode of Supergirl six years ago, and it’s exactly what we got over the course of the show’s six seasons.
