In the first season of Supergirl, Superman is only seen from behind and generally out of focus. He’s a bit of a mystical being in the show. However, in Season 2 he’ll be showing up properly with Teen Wolf’s Tyler Hoechlin playing the role.

Now the first proper pic of Hoechlin in the super-suit has arrived, where he stands alongside Melissa Benoist’s title character. In case you don’t know, Supergirl, aka Kara Danvers, was sent from Krypton to Earth to look after her cousin, the infant Kal-el. However, her ship got trapped in the Phantom Zone, resulting in her arriving on our planet decades after her relative.
