'Stargirl' Episode 3: Fans ship Icicle Jr and Courtney but will the two have a shot at romance in the future?
The full Justice Society Of America is going to be recruited — that's the only optimistic thing about the latest episode of 'Stargirl'. In the previous episode, Courtney Whitmore (Brec Bassinger) incapacitated the sinister Brainwave (Christopher James Baker). In Episode 3, if she thought that she could get away by defeating Icicle (Neil Jackson), boy, she was wrong. Not only did Icicle render her Cosmic Staff useless, but he also murdered her classmate. That's not all, he killed the poor child's father too.
The Injustice Society Of America promises deadly trouble, and Stargirl cannot handle it all on her own. And while Icicle Sr Jordan Mahkent means trouble, maybe his son Cameron Mahkent (Hunter Sansone) might not be so. In fact, fans are quite taken by the "sexy" father-son duo. Shipper alert, fans are already excited to see a possible romance brewing between Courtney and Cameron.
One fan proposed that there might be a love triangle between Cameron, Rick Tyler and Courtney. "I'm thinking there's going to be a love triangle between Cameron and Courtney And Rick Tyler...." Another tweeted, "Ok yeah I think I'm gonna start shipping Courtney and Cameron.... I really can't help myself huh." One fan wondered, "Is Courtney going to end up banging Cameron?" Well, you never know.
In an exclusive interview with MEA WorldWide (MEAWW), Jackson opened up about Icicle's son and his relationship with him. "Jordan is kind of machiavellian, where the ends justify the means. He has a son and he wants to leave the world in a better place than the one he lived in. That means exposing people that are doing these terrible things and ultimately destroying them."
"So he is doing what he believes is the best for his son, but the sacrifice that that comes with that is the direct, personal relationship he has with his him. He's not as close with his son as he wants to be and his son is pretty much raised by his grandparents. So Jordan's parents basically raise Cameron, and that causes some conflict between the two of them because he hasn't really been a father figure to his son. Yet in his mind, he is being the best father that he can because he is making a big sacrifice to leave him a better world," he added.
'Stargirl' airs on The CW on Tuesdays at 8 pm.
