Supergirl, American comic strip superhero created for DC Comics by writer Otto Binder and artist Al Plastino. The character first appeared in Action Comics no. 252 (May 1959).
Supergirl is an American superhero drama television series developed by Ali Adler, Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg that aired on CBS and later The CW from October 26, 2015, to November 9, 2021. It is based on the DC Comics character of the same name created by Otto Binder and Al Plastino.
Captain Marvel and Supergirl share similarities in their gender, appearance, and powers. The fact that they have the same last name, Danvers, is purely coincidental. Supergirl's last name was adopted from the Danvers family, while Carol Danvers of Captain Marvel was created unrelated to Supergirl.
Since she first debuted in 1959, Kara Zor-El has consistently been called Supergirl, even if her civilian name has changed plenty. Carol Danvers' story is very different. She has always been Carol, but her superhero identity has fluctuated.
Superwoman is the name of several fictional characters from DC Comics. Most of them are, like Supergirl, women with powers similar to those of Superman, like flight, invulnerability, and enhanced strength.
Despite it being the most obvious choice, the Superwoman mantle has quite a dark history unbefitting of a hero like Kara. After she survived Krypton's destruction and eventually made her way to Earth, Kara discovered that her baby cousin was now a full-grown man and the planet's number one protector.
In summary, Supergirl has significantly more potential than Superman, but whichever Kryptonian has more yellow star radiation will have access to even greater powers. Ultimately, neither hero is limited by their build, their age, or even their training.
There are few warriors in any universe that could defeat Thor. Unfortunately, Supergirl isn't one of them. The fight would level everything around them but Thor would eventually come out on top.
Unfortunately for Kara, Wonder Woman doesn't need long-range attacks when she can fall back on her Amazonian training; unlike Kara, she's trained her entire life for battle against all manner of foes. Wonder Woman and Supergirl have fought twice before - and Wonder Woman handily won both times.
Kara-Zor-El, also known as Supergirl and Linda Lee Danvers, is a Kryptonian superhero based in Midvale and later San Francisco, New Athens, New York City and Chicago. She is the cousin of Superman, and for a long time served as his "secret weapon".
Kara Zor-El (Supergirl) also known by her adoptive names of Linda Lee Danvers, Kara Kent, Linda Lang, and Kara Danvers, is a superheroine appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics.
From the Avengers and X-Men to Punisher and Thanos, DC has many versions of Marvel's heroes, often with impressive powers. These aren't characters who take inspiration from Marvel or draw on the same themes, but the deliberate, blatant imitations, with the intent of allowing DC to comment on its main competitor.
The main reason for the Supergirl season 7 cancelation was low ratings, which peaked at three million viewers in season 2 and was down to half of that for season 5. Things got worse at the end of season 5 for the DC hero, with another massive drop with only 700,000 live viewers.
The original, current, and most well known Supergirl is Kara Zor-El, the cousin of superhero Superman. The character made her first appearance in Action Comics #252 (May 1959) and was created by Otto Binder and Al Plastino.
In Peter David's Supergirl series, this Linda Danvers finds herself in another alternate reality with a Silver Age Superman. When he discovers that this Supergirl isn't really his cousin, they fall in love and get married.
As a character, Daredevil takes the title of Marvel's Batman. As the years have gone on, the hero's rogues gallery has come to resemble some of Batman's, especially as he shares some enemies with Spider-Man.
While Solomon Grundy has often been called DC's version of the Hulk, Solomon actually lacks the Jade Giant's biggest weakness: the absolute mess of alternate personalities that reside in the Hulk's body and mind.
Many see the Avengers' Quicksilver as Marvel's version of The Flash, but he might have competition in this role from an unexpected source. The ghastly Ghost Rider is a dark, supernatural antihero who appears to be nothing like The Flash at first glance.
Kara has potential to give Hulk a run for his money. She's strong and fast enough to knock him around and keep him bay and can even use her heat vision to stun him, but the thing is… she exerts herself too much because of the years without sunlight exposure and then Hulk would just beat her like he did to Thor.
A mythical being, Mephisto can do anything he wants, quite literally. He can have any superpower he likes and his strength increases endlessly. With every soul that he takes, he becomes more powerful. Supergirl cannot match Mephisto in terms of strength nor can she hurt him with anything.
She-Hulk DID have some advantages on Supergirl, that being her intelligence and their closely matched strength. Boomstick: However, there was no way She-Hulk could keep up with the Supergirl, seeing as Kara is in the Kryptonian range of power, to be able to keep up with the Flash.
Batman defeats Supergirl using Klurkor, a specialized martial art taught on Krypton, showcasing his resourcefulness and ability to strategize against powerful opponents. Klurkor gives Batman a major advantage against Kryptonians, as he can utilize it to take on foes without relying on his usual gadgets or Kryptonite.
Supergirl has made many enemies during her career, partially due to her constant moving from a city to another. She has also made many enemies in outer space. Despite this, she has never had a definitive arch-enemy, though recently, Reign and Emerald Empress have taken on this role.
The Hulk Can't Match Superman's Other Abilities (Besides Strength) Although the Hulk is the strongest there is in the Marvel Universe, Superman is by far the strongest in the DC Universe while also being aided by all his other abilities.
