Shan’s reaction to Superman’s feet was priceless
When dc rebooted in 80's post crisis kryptonians could not breath in space so it depends on the versions.That change later however.The show is talking different ideas from different time period or reboots from the comics.
Post-Crisis
When the Superman character was revised by John Byrne shortly after Crisis on Infinite Earths, it was decided to place restrictions on his abilities. This was designed to make it easier for writers to come up with suitable challenges for the hero, and to eliminate or reduce those powers that had become too sensational or unbelievable for modern audiences. Emphasis was placed on yellow sun energy as a source for the character's powers. Superman's origin story was altered so that his powers developed gradually as his body absorbed yellow sunlight, and stories such as the Final Night series depicted the character gradually losing his powers when deprived of the sun's energy. When Superman's reserves of solar energy were depleted, as in Infinite Crisis or the Death of Superman story arcs, he required an extended period of time under a yellow sun, or some type of artificial solar enhancement in order to recharge.
Power Reduction Superman's strength was reduced to the point where he could still move tremendous amounts, but the character no longer had the ability to move planets. His speed was also reduced so that he could not exceed the speed of light. While still capable of surviving a nuclear explosion, such events would severely weaken him. Superman's sight, stamina and breath powers were also similarly reduced, and the character was also shown as requiring an oxygen mask for prolonged travel in space or underwater. His mental abilities were also curtailed to the point where intelligent humans, like geniuses Lex Luthor or Batman, could possibly outsmart him. The powers of super-ventriloquism and super-hypnosis were not generally used during this period, although it was never stated whether they had been eliminated or not.
Modern Era
After Byrne's departure from the series, Superman's powers and abilities were once again increased over time. He regained the ability to travel interstellar distances and to hold his breath for the amount of time required to make such journeys. His strength, speed, and sensory abilities were again increased, although not to Pre-Crisis levels.
The comparative weakness of the Superman character to his Pre-Crisis incarnation was definitively shown during Infinite Crisis. The Superboy-Prime character, endowed with nearly the same power levels as the Silver Age Superman, was capable of defeating large numbers of DC universe heroes, including the Teen Titans and many members of theGreen Lantern Corps. The Modern Era Superman and his Earth 2 counterpart were only able to defeat Superboy-Prime after plunging him through Krypton's red sun, thereby reducing his powers.

I remember from the Superman animated series he needed a special suit to go into space
He couldn't breathe in space, but could hold his breath for several hours and still fly through space. This nerfs them on the level of that single issue JLA/Authority one-shot.
Only Batman can breathe in space.
@@Narutoanime16g When they mean superman is off world by the way he has he must have his own space ship or aliens that do.There was deleted scene in superman returns where he has his own space ship to visit where the remains of krypton .
Supergirl giving that tv speech reminded me of when Coulson did his in the framework, loved it! Good season finale Supergirl
Thank for the reaction. I understand that you think Kryptonian can breathe in outer space, but you already had a 2 minutes rant about it. Could have stop it there instead of bring it up every five seconds 😭
Please read the description of this reaction above. She meant surviving in space, Not breathing in space. Honest mistake :)

Deleted superman returns scene.
Superman Returns - Return To Krypton

Superman has his own spaceship. The pod he came is as baby is at the fortress of solitude. So he went off world in his ship.
I think Superman has been on Earth longer than Kara and has use his power for much longer. Probably since he was a teenager like in Smallville. So, he has had more time to adapt to Earth and the atmosphere. And, he’s probably been off world many times. Kara has only been using her powers for a year and she has never fly in space.
Clark had been on Earth for 24 years when Kara crash landed.
The modern day version of Superman can't breathe in space either, that's why in the comics he has both his ship and a deep space suit of armor.
Maybe Superman had help to breathe in space, we just didn't see it. Maybe he wore the legion ring to help him breathe. Not sure if it works that way.
Fun fact: you released this on the same day that the 100th episode of Supergirl aired (well, the day it aired in Australia, anyway...).
That's what we called a good danvers sisters moment . Can't wait for you to see the other seasons!
Love the Reactions but you are wrong they can’t breath or fly in space. Lol
Damn, 51 comments on a Supergirl video and all of them are about breathing on space. EDIT: Apparently Shan got many comments about this too on Patreon, lul.
I think the breath prblm depends on their timeline age when they came earth .....Finally Cat grant called Kara😂😍...The funny part is Superman's boots 🤣🤣
Supergirl Kryptonians are pretty low power compared to other versions: unable to fly through space, getting caught in Toymans quicksand trap...
They need oxygen there living breathing beings there's no oxygen in space the show got it right
read my description pls lol
I dont now who but we see in 4x9 supergirl that she fly so fast that she can and she fly in space as fastest she can so of cors kryptonian can breath in space
Fun fact after this season the original network cancelled Supergirl and a lot of favors were made to transfer it to the CW.
Fun fact it wasn't cancelled it was moved to it's sister network get your facts right
Mark Hayden the answer is in the middle. CBS was not happy with the ratings and the show lost about half of its audience over the season. It just didn't have the numbers for CBS who's shows do really well. But then the decision was decided to put on CW where it wouldn't have to do good numbers to survive,
It was more a decision they didn't want to renew than an active choice to cancel the show
Mark Hayden yeah it was and its not something to brag about its like sending an NBA player to the minor teams so get your fact right soyboy
No Diggity AKA Cancelled soyboy thinks ‘it wasn’t cancelled even though its original network wanted nothing to do with it. Cancelled is cancelled and Supergirl was in season 1
There's nothing fun about these facts or this thread of needless insults
In some comics Supermat and Supergirl can breath in space in other comics they cannot it weird.
CW here we come.
The only showed Supermans feet because Warner Brothers wouldn't let them put him fully in the show on CBS
If you watch Superman The Animated series and Justice League and Justice League Unlimited from the 90’s you will see that they can’t breath in space. I know I’m late in posting this, but I’ve just discovered your reactions. Kind of been in and out of hospitals, dialysis and kidney transplant. I used to watch these when I was on dialysis back then. I love your reactions with the crossovers.
Yeah. They couldn’t show Superman. WB didn’t want him on tv. Like Batman.
Wait to go mom saving the kids.
It was a nice speech.
Goku vs Superman... Tell me you've seen that rap battle, it's hilarious. If not, maybe react?
I don't care if enough about lore to argue, hope they go easy on you. I do remember SM circling the earth to turn back time, there's even a Hishe joke on how the amazing spiderman 2 should have ended so I'm on your side corrections or no. Regardless of the logistics.
Cat 🥰
Lol "what did Maxwell Lord do?"
I was happy for this finale as I loved this season.
Also your argument about her being from another atmosphere should mean she can breathe in space is false. Space is a vacuum, no oxygen or any other gases to breathe.
As the video suggests, she was corrected on this on Patreon too. What she meant however, and sadly in the moment worded wrong which got people upset, is that Supergirl (and Superman for that matter) could survive in space. Keyword survive. While newer comics may show otherwise, older comics (and also movies and TV shows have shown Superman to go up into space without the use of a suit/ship. I believe the comics just explained it away as him being able to hold his breath for an extremely long time.
@@TonyWasHere I agree they never said in any of the comics at least that I recall that Superman or Supergirl could breathe in a vacuum, just that the extraordinary lung power which gives them freeze breath also allow them to hold their breath for extended periods.
@@christopherholley8164 Yup and that's where unfortunately she messed up her words a bit. She of course knows that one can't breathe in space no matter what planet you're from. She meant "survive" and people got a bit upset about that. :D
So glad u enjoyed Supergirl season 1 Shan. I cannot wait for your season 2 reactions 4 real!☺✌
Woah, you're 20% of the way there!
Air aside, "there's no gravity in space" and "you can't generate thrust to get back" sure is some Nonsense.
Sad that u didnt learn anything from physyc at school....
❤️
People need to understand kryptonians can create freeze breath in their bodies and also it takes a certain level of pressure for the vacuum of space to suffocate you. Kryptonians can absolutely breathe in space and everyone who says otherwise is mistaken
No Diggity
Actually post crisis on infinite earth they made it so they couldn’t breath in space. That’s why in content from the 80s and 90s such as superman the animated series superman needs a special suit to breath in space. This show decided to go with those rules.
That depends on the version in question. In some comics and adaptations, they absolutely can. In the more modern depictions, they absolutely cannot. There is no single answer to this.
Sure I agree with depends on version we have seen superman fighting in different places in space and stuff
Barry is too slow for that. And his in another Earth.
Hello ASR. We are here, S1 Finale. Isn’t Superman the last son of Krypton? Why all these Kryptonians keep showing up, after Superman came to Earth👍? He and Kara were supposedly the last survivors.
Based solely on the awful movie, as I'm tragically under educated on the comics and universe, there was some kind of city. Only saw it once and it gave me nightmares so I don't even remember if she saved them from the stolen ball power source thing. She got the... brainwashed... guy. Anyone know the lore here?
Barbara Baker What?🤔
@@12chapin You asked if he was the last of Krypton. I referenced the old Supergirl movie as a possible answer. Trust me, that is as coherent as the movie gets. Actually nostalgia critic has a review of the movie. Might answer a lot here.
Barbara Baker I didn’t what movie you were talking about. But your explanation is confusing,
@@12chapin As I said, the Supergirl movie by it's nature is confusing. If you watch the nostalgia critic review, you'll know what I mean.
