4) Give Mon-El A Superhero Suit
Supergirl fans seem split over Mon-El. While some are big fans of Chris Wood’s charismatic and funny performance in the role and his natural chemistry with Melissa Benoist, others have felt that the dude-bro Daxamite hogged too much screentime this season and needs to go. Eschewing that argument for a moment, one thing that does need to happen with the character is for him to actually don a proper superhero suit.
Throughout season 2, Mon-El wore what must be the laziest costume in the whole of the Arrowverse: just a standard DEO black uniform with some orange-tinted glasses thrown on. It’s not like they don’t have the comic books to turn to for inspiration, either. Mon-El has been around on the page since his creation in 1961. In the comics, he wears a red and blue outfit whose colour scheme and cape meshes with that of Superman. He also has a superhero codename: Valor.
Despite Kara and Mon’s tragic separation at the end of the season, the character will surely not stay away from Earth for long. When he returns, let’s hope he gets some new togs.
