Eclipso is set to become one of the main antagonists to clash with Stargirl’s Justice Society of America in Season 2. The villain was first teased during the ending of the first season finale where Cindy steals a blue diamond from the Injustice Society of America.

Eclipso’s full character description reads: “Ancient entity of corruption and vengeance. Brimming with a cold, terrifying darkness, he exploits the flaws of others, reveling in the impure and sinful, sadistically feeding off the dark side of humanity.”

As for The Shade, he is known as a classic antihero from the DC Comics. He is an English immortal who has the ability to cast magical shadow powers. His character description reads:

“Tall and slim with an elegant 19th century way to his speech and manners, he masks the horrors he’s experienced and people he’s lost in all the time alive with wry, witty retorts and a false sense that nothing really matters.”

Stargirl follows the story of Courtney Whitmore (BreceBassinger) who is a smart, athletic, and above all else kind girl. This high school teenager’s seemingly perfect life hits a major speedbump when her mother gets married and her new family moves from Los Angeles, California to Blue Valley, Nebraska. Struggling to adapt to a new school, make new friends and deal with a new step-family, Courtney discovers her step-father has a secret; he used to be the sidekick to a superhero. “Borrowing” the long-lost hero’s cosmic staff, Courtney becomes the unlikely inspiration for an entirely new generation of superheroes.
