My Adventures with Superman season 2 episode 8: What has happened so far and what to expect from this episode?
In episode 6, Superman (voiced by Jack Quaid) had a violent confrontation with his cousin, Kara, who is Supergirl. After defeating him, she takes him to Brainiac, whom she serves.
Clark tries to reason with Kara by telling her that destroying Earth would not be a good move since the Kryptonian Empire has only demolished whatever civilization it laid its hands on. Kara slowly begins to grasp Clark's argument and we see her absolute faith in Brainiac faltering.
When Superman confronts Brainiac himself, the latter confesses to him that he just wants to subdue any civilization that will not obey the Kryptonian Empire.
Meanwhile, on Earth, Clark's friends Lois (voiced by Alice Lee) and Jimmy Olsen (voiced by Ishmel Sahid) are trying to execute a heist in order to go out into space in search of Clark.
The rescue mission starts off well as Lois and company steal a spacecraft from S.T.A.R. Labs and head for space, where, at the end of the episode, they meet Kara.
"What next?" is the question keeping every Superman fan busy right now. Since My Adventures with Superman season 2 episode 8 is titled The Death of Clark Kent, some fans on Reddit believe that Brainiac will be successful in hacking into the brain of Clark and turning him into an evil Superman.
This certainly is a possible direction the story might take. In fact, some fans think, this is exactly how the evil Supermen come into being. But then again, other possible directions are also open.
Episode 9 is titled Superman! and episode 10 is titled My Adventures with Supergirl. While the titles are quite inconclusive, it might just be possible that Superman is somehow able to defy Brainiac's control and escape, and eventually save the day in episode 9.
By that logic, the finale could be about Kara who might become the protagonist of the next season, as Clark and Lois finally settle down into the cozy romantic relationship that has been developing between them.
My Adventures with Superman season 2 episode 8 will throw some light on whatever path the makers have chosen for Superman.
Will there be a season 3?
Yes! My Adventures with Superman was already renewed for a third season in June 2024, though much information has not been disclosed.
