Supergirl season 6 premieres this week and these brand new photos seem to confirm that a major National City death is on the horizon in The CW series. 

Supergirl season 6 has remained off The CW’s spring schedule for the longest time. It was the only Arrowverse show that wasn’t talked about in the slightest by the network over the past couple of months while the likes of The FlashBatwomanDC’s Legends of Tomorrow and DC’s Stargirl all got their return dates either definitively or vaguely confirmed. And yet, somehow, we are here, with the show’s return upon us.

Called in at the last moment to temporarily replace Superman and LoisSupergirl begins its final season as Kara Zor-El of Krypton battles Lex Luthor in the remnants of the not-entirely-finished fifth season.

However, fans of the show have been rather concerned for the Girl of Steel as there have been rumors that Kara will be killed off (temporarily of course) in the season premiere. And now these new photos seem to suggest that could indeed happen.

Supergirl season 6 photos tease the Girl of Steel’s demise

The brand new promotional photos have been released for Supergirl season 6, episode 2 “A Few Good Women” and none of them feature Supergirl herself.

While there could be an obvious reason for that, the fact that the photos aren’t from one specific scene but an array of scenes from the episode and she isn’t in any of them does raise a little suspicion.

Moreover, the Super Friends are seen taking on some kind of threat, with the likes of Alex, J’onn, M’Gann, Nia and Brainy all defending their headquarters. But again, there is no Supergirl in the photos.

Fans have been wondering if something might temporarily happen to the Girl of Steel as the season 6 premiere’s synopsis teases a major sacrifice on Supergirl’s part. Adding to that, the recently-released season 6 trailer also teases Kara’s demise.

Supergirl season 6 premieres with the episode “Rebirth” and it airs on The CW on Tuesday, March 30, at 9:00 p.m. ET (after The Flash).
