Who is Mon-El on Supergirl?
We have a relatively simple history of one of the most confusing characters in the DC Universe.
Warning:This article contains potentialSupergirlseason 3 spoilers.
You know what my first thought was when that mysterious rocket crashed in theSupergirlseason 1 finale?
Wouldnt it be cool if Mon-El was in this rocket?
Well, guess, what?
You know what this isnt?
A comprehensive history of Mon-El.
Because that would be really long, confusing, and potentially tedious.
Im just going to hit a few high points, specifically ones that I think might be relevant forSupergirlfans.
Those in-story/environmental complications eventually gave way to editorial ones, which made Mon-Els story trickier.
So whats a guy from Daxam to do?
Ill get back to one of these down below, but stick with me.
Its actually a wonderful little short story, written by Geoff Johns with art by Eric Wright.
Its like a deleted sequence fromSuperman: The Movieor a lost episode ofSmallville.
I wish I could recommendthese storiesmore highly, but I found them a little talky and bland.
Your mileage may vary, of course.
One solution was to change the very inspiration for the Legion in the first place.
That would beMon-El…ermm…Lar Gand!
The villains of last years CW DC TV crossover were the creepy looking aliens known as The Dominators.
Valor played a major part in stopping the Dominators duringInvasion, and liberated one of their superhuman farms.
Its kinda neat, right?
