This behind the scenes of Milly Alcockโs Supergirl movie has me so excited and I want to explain why
If this is the symbol that is going to be on her suit, it looks like it will be a darker color pallete which is the perfect symbolism for her.
I always thought of Kara as so much darker than Clark. She actually remembers Kryptonโs destruction and struggles with the grief. Clark only ever knew Earth and was lucky to have great adoptive parents to slowly acclimate to powers that developed over time and didnt shock him.
Kara lost her parents, her whole world, and suddenly has to adjust to superpowers that she never had to deal with before. So not only is she grieving, she is having to contain newfound superpowers amidst strong emotions.
Clarkโs symbol has a yellow outline, bright red S, and the yellow on the inside again. Whereas hers has a black outline, the bright red (different shade i think), and a navy blue inside.
Excuse the blurry closeup of the Supergirl one. But to my overanalyzing self this does give the impression they will be going with a more angsty take on Supergirl which I love because it just makes sense.
Thatโs why I always hated angsty takes on Clark. He is meant to be sunshine and why do that to him when the poor girl who actually remembers losing her entire fucking planet and everyone she ever loved and knew and is know completely displaced in an unfamiliar society while having to learn to self control with brand new superpowers and not kill everyone around her is right there.
Itโs just such a juicy opportunity I hope DC wont waste and I hope this symbol is what I overanalyze it to mean
