Stargirl (Season 3)

The upcoming third season of the hit DC Comics-based series Stargirl.

Plot
The third season will borrow heavily from Geoff Johns' run in early 2000s. It will introduce several new characters, starting from Captain Marvel/Billy Batson and his family. They will be based on the Pre-New 52 versions therefore Billy's superhero identity is called Captain Marvel, Mary is his twin sister and her superhero identity is called Mary Marvel and Billy's best friend and Mary's love interest Freddy Freeman turns into Captain Marvel Junior (by saying the magic word Captain Marvel instead of Shazam). We shall also meet Shazam, the Wizard who gave them their powers, and their arch-enemies Black Adam, Kull and Neron.

Billy and Courtney will fall in love through the season and they'll get engaged by the last episode (they kissed a couple of times in previous episodes). They will become one of the most popular CW couple among viewers (especially on social medias and forum) and they will stay together until the end of the series. Captain Marvel will join the Justice Society and the two will have to keep their relationship a secret while on duty but, as their teammates start to notice, in order to explain Billy will be forced to tell his secret identity to the others. Atom Smasher, also in love with Courtney, will serve as Billy's rival and the two will dislike each other from the beginning. They will even fight in an episode. But Cortney will have no doubts about which one she loves and that's Billy.

Billy will also introduce Courtney to his family (both Mary and Freddy will get along very well with her) and even the Wizard Shazam (they will visit the Rock of Eternity together in an episode).

The series will also introduce additional Justice Society members and superheroes: Doctor Fate, Cyclone, Atom Smasher, Hawkman and Hawkgirl. The later will be based on the alien Thanagarian versions of the characters rather than the Egyptian versions who appeared in Legends of Tomorrow.

Supergirl will guest star in an episode based on the Justice League Unlimited episode Chaos at the Earth's Core. Flash (Jay Garrick), Stargirl, S.T.R.I.P.E. and Supergirl are drawn to the subterranean world of Skartaris to assist the Warlord, Travis Morgan. Courtney initially resented Supergirl's popularity, and dismissed her merit for being Superman's protégé. While in Skartaris, Stargirl took a somewhat childish relish in seeing Kara in distress, deprived of her powers. The two even had an argument and Stargirl proceeded to slap Supergirl and beat her up before Flash and S.T.R.I.P.E. intervened. However, when she saw how adroit and brave the powerless Supergirl was, Stargirl gained a whole new view on her character, and both girls reconciled after Stargirl saved her from Deimos.

The lead villain of the season will be the demon Neron, who will also disguise himself through the season as one of the characters' main friend in order to deceive them. Black Adam will be the villain of a two-episodes story arc, while Kull will appear in a single episode.

The Marvel Family will appear from the first episode and become recurring characters through the series. Cyclone will appear in the third episode, Hawkman and Hawkgirl will appear in mid-season. Kent Nelson appeared as early as the fourth episode but will only put the helmet and become Doctor Fate again in the last two episodes. He previously choose to retire, feeling the burden of Nabu's power was too much for him to handle but he will return when his Justice Society comrades really need his help.
