'Supergirl' Season 1 Episode 12 Spoilers: Kara Faces Off with Bizarro!
Will Kara/Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) finally meet her match in Bizarro?
According to We Got This Covered, the girl (Hope Lauren) that Maxwell Lord (Peter Facinelli) is keeping secret in the past episodes will finally wake up. The charceter is said to become Kara's mirror image and the villain, Bizarro. According to the website, it will be something that fans will look forward to if Bizarro does become one of the recurring villains on the show, instead of the usual villain-of-the-week theme.
A sneak peek was also released for the upcoming episode, which is appropriately titled "Bizarro," and fans saw Benoist playing both the hero and the villain. At the beginning of the clip, the tech billionaire is seen proud at his creation, and is close to tears as he says, "She's alive!" After waking up from coma, Maxwell Lord tells Bizarro that Supergirl is bad, and it seems like all the evil things he has in mind for Supergirl will be done for him by Bizarro.
When Kara sees the villain doing something evil, she comes and asks Bizarro to stop. However, the villain seems unstoppable since unlike normal Kryptonians who are weakened by Kryptonite, Bizarro-versions of them, just like Superman's counterpart, get strength from green Kryptonite. In the comic books, Bizarro can only be stopped by using a blue Kryptonite.
The episode summary of the next episode was posted on Spoilers Guide, and the synopsis reads, "Kara will end up facing off against her mirror image when Bizarro, a twisted version of Supergirl, sets out to destroy her. Also, Kara is going to grow closer with Cat's son, Adam."
