Supergirl Takes On a Gang Armed With Alien Tech In “Crossfire” Synopsis

After getting a name-drop in an earlier episode of season 2, could Intergang be setting their sights on Supergirl‘s National City?

It doesn’t seem too farfetched as a new episode synopsis for Supergirl‘s upcoming fifth episode of the season hints at a ruthless new gang enhanced with alien technology.

Intergang, one of the most powerful and ruthless organized crime groups in the DC Universe, are often depicted as being armed by Apokolips. They have over the years played a big role in the Superman family of titles, including Superman’s Pal, Jimmy Olsen, which also heavily featured The Guardian and Cadmus — elements that are being heavily featured in season 2 of Supergirl.

You can check out the official synopsis below.

SUPERGIRL TAKES ON A RUTHLESS NEW GANG — Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) must beat a ruthless new gang who has been armed with dangerous new alien technology. When Cadmus sends a video to the DEO, the team realizes Cadmus is the one staffing the criminals for a secret mission.

Meanwhile, Kara (Melissa Benoist) gets Mon-El (Chris Wood) a job as an intern at CatCo, James makes an important decision and Lena (Katie McGrath) invites Kara to attend one her fundraisers.

Glen Winter directed the episode written by Gabriel Llanas & Anna Musky-Goldwyn.
