Iāve read all of these books before, but being that Blackfire has been a highlight of the season thus far, I just might be inclined to re-read them, once more.
Thank you for adding to my reading list, @DC89. 
bows, gentlemanly, in appreciation

Agreed @Vroom. Damaris Lewis has been delivering a fantastic performance as Blackfire this season.

That she has.
Sheās also contesting with Star for the heart of this Kryptonian, as well. I like Blackfire fine, but Star is much more to my tastes. 
Plus, Star likes purple, and as Vicki said in Burtonās Batman, āI love purple!ā 
Seriously, purple schtuff is just good, great and grand.

I like the Connor and Blackfire subplot, although based on the comics, it is doomed to failure; these arenāt the comics, so we may be surprised. It was nice to see Krypto kick butt, last episode as well.

I like it too! I grow to love Blackfire more and more. She adds well-timed humor to the story. Connor and Blackfire is interesting because theyāre both alien to humanity. I hope she sticks around.

Thank you for posting all of that Blackfire reading, @DC89! I got through it today, and I can DEFINTELY see where youāre coming from. There are some pretty revealing quotes from the reading that pretty much outright tell you that you cannot trust Blackfire (really just short of her wearing a t-shirt that says, āHey, donāt trust me.ā).
Still, I kind of feel for her. I really blame their father, King Myandār, for the whole thing. He basically creates a dynastic succession controversy by naming Starfire his successor over her older sister. If youāre of royal blood and your whole sense of self-worth comes from whether you are fit to rule or not then that must have had a profound effect on Blackfire in her formative years. Sheās a socio-path, yes, but I would argue her fatherās decision helped make her that way. Itās the kind of monarchal misstep that would lead to wars where thousands of people would get killed in Medieval Europe.
It also made me think that Blackfire and Conner really do have a lot in common. On Tamaran, there was prejudice against Blackfire because she couldnāt fly which really shaped how she interacts with/trusts people. With Conner, his half-Luthor heritage makes him worry that people will judge him a monster without really knowing him. It really makes sense that they would gravitate towards each other.
Andā¦ againā¦ sheās really pretty. Is there truly no hope for her?
Also, the reading sent me down the deep rabbit-hole that is the ethno-politics of the Vegan star-system, so thanks for thatā¦

Heās def not the wisest of kings, or the strongest of fathers for that matter. 
Gotchaā. Iām thinkinā that if Conner gets too close to Blackfire his inner Luthorisms will get triggered. Good thing that Donna is returning, ācuz if Conner goes on a rampage sheās the only one in the group that can go toe to toe with him (Rae Raeās gonnaā be a big help here as well). Starās gonnaā have her hands full with Blackfire, so sheās not gonnaā be able to help stop Conner.

THIS MANY, peeps! 
I think Iām sitting this one out, as I am beat and need a nap.
If someone could fix me a to-go box (and tell Star that I said āSup?ā as well), Iāll stop by later and pick it up, plus toss a generous tip in the tip jar, too.
I know I could follow Garās (love his shirt, BTW) leadā¦
ā¦but Iām schleepy and coffee usually isnāt my thing, so I need to recharge my Kryptonian batteries for a while.
Have fun!
