One of the big questions hanging over this season of Supergirl is just how will Kara respond to the idea of James Olsen armoring up as Guardian and Winn Schott helping him out Up until the crossover, you'd think it would go poorly, but now that she's seen heroes like Green Arrow, maybe she'll be[...]

We've got our first look at James Olsen (Mehcad Brooks) in his Guardian armor He has the shield and a helmet, but the color scheme is very different than the version from the comics I'm curious the story behind the armor Seems like something more than Olsen could have put together in his apartment.
