"There's a new superhero in town" in first trailer for The Flash/Supergirl crossover

It's a good time to be a fan of DC superheroes. This week Batman and Superman meet on the big screen for the first time, and next week the Flash meets Supergirl on the small screen. That episode is titled 'World's Finest' - ironically a moniker which is normally bestowed on the Dark Knight and Man of Steel - and the trailer has landed online. Check it out below...

While Batman v Superman trailers have barely featured a smile, this 30 second promo has its heroes beaming almost all the way through. It also does a good job of teasing what looks to be a fun hour, and as a fan of both shows I'm looking forward to seeing Barry Allen's impact in Supergirl's world. Will you be tuning in?

The Flash/Supergirl crossover episode 'World's Finest' will air in the US on CBS on March 28, 2016.
