Looking back, most Arrowverse pilots were a bit rough around the edges, and that’s true of Stargirl as well.
That’s especially true following events in the third episode which hint at a wider team-up that should thrill comic book fans while also adding a welcome new dynamic to the show as a whole.
It’s worth bearing in mind that superhero shows like this rarely excel from the get-go.
Growth can be seen even across these first three installments, and if you’re able to sit through some clichéd storytelling, Stargirl has the potential to shine bright among its Arrowverse rivals.
