The Dark History Of Stargirl

While the DCEU can sometimes get a little too grim for some fans, The CW's "Stargirl" exists as a welcome change of pace with a peppy, optimistic heroine trying her best to live up to a superheroic legacy. Critics and fans seem to agree, praising lead actress Brec Bassinger's ability to put smiles on viewers' faces. However, while "Stargirl" seems like a superhero adventure the whole family can enjoy, the comic book character that inspired The CW show is a little less family-friendly. From the many times that villains have sought homicidal vengeance to her complicated dating exploits, this is the dark history of Stargirl.
