**Kara Zor-El**, known on Earth as **Kara Danvers**, is the tritagonist of the Arrowverse, debuting as the titular main protagonist of the television series, *Supergirl* and a supporting character in *The Flash*, *Arrow* and *Legends of Tomorrow*. She was sent out to Earth to look after her infant cousin Kal-El. Krypton's destruction sent a shock wave that knocked her pod off course and into the Phantom Zone for twenty-four years. When she arrived, Kara was adopted by the Danvers, and by the time she reached adulthood, was working at CatCo Worldwide Media as the CEO's secretary. After saving a plane that was carrying Alex, she was soon recognized as National City's protector, dubbed **Supergirl** by Cat Grant, as well as being called the "Girl of Steel" and the "Last Daughter of Krypton." She has become one of the world's greatest heroes, revered for her kindness and will to help others.

She is the leader of the Superfriends, a member of the Crisis team, and an ally to the Legion, the Bat Team, the disbanded Team Arrow, Team Flash and the Legends Of Tomorrow.

## History

### Background

Kara is a young Kryptonian and Superman's biological cousin. She was to sent to Earth to look after Kal-El but as her and her cousin's home planet exploded, Kara was sent into the Phantom Zone for twenty four years without being aged. When her pod is found in Earth, Kal-El, now known as Superman puts her in the care of Eliza and Jeremiah Danvers. Twelve years later, Kara Danvers has lived in National City and became Cat Grant's secretary for a long time.

Later, she became a part-time member of the D. E. O. to fight evil aliens alongside her adoptive sister Alex. After Cat's leave of absence and eventual departure from CatCo Kara became a journalist.

## Trivia

* In the comics, Kara is still a teenager instead of a young woman. However, her Linda Danvers incarnation is a young woman.
* Winn was the second of Kara's friends to know her identity as Supergirl. The first is Jimmy Olsen, who was told by Superman who she was.
* This is a third live-action version of the character.
* In most stories, Kara is a teenager as opposed to a young woman.
* During Krypton's destruction, Kara was only 13 years old.
* In the Trinity during the Pre-Anti-Monitor Crisis which consists of her, Oliver and Barry, Kara was the only one who: didn't originate from Earth One, female and didn't make it to Season 8.
* There didn't seem to be an Earth-1 counterpart for Kara, at least according to John Deegan. However, given Harry Welles' explanation that there is a Krypton in several Earths, it's possible she may have one. There are several implications she may have one.
	+ first of that characters from other realities have different names than other counterparts, Kara may have a different name on Earth-1. This is the case for Jay Garrick, who is the doppleganger of Henry Allen from Earth-3, but has a different name.
	+ Another possibility for Kara to have an Earth-1 counterpart comes from the fact that she also has an Earth-X counterpart, which also contains an Earth X version of Oliver Queen.
	+ Another explanation would be Kara died during the destruction of Krypton or she is living on Krypton, with the possibility of it never being destroyed.
	+ The fourth and final reason is that she simply does not have a counterpart, like intended.
* Kara had five love interests: Kenny Li (in the New multiverse), Winn Schott (before rejoicing they were better off as friends), Adam Foster, James Olsen, Mon-El, and William Dey. Sara Lance, Mick Rory, and Mxyzptlk have expressed interest in her and she has had four other ex-boyfriends.
* She is physically 25, the same age that Barry Allen was when his series began. However, she is chronologically 49 due to being trapped in the Phantom Zone for 24 years since age of 13 and her unique physiology to more slower than humans
* Despite being annoyed by people who compare her to her cousin, Superman, Kara and Clark both have several similarities with each other: both their birth named start with a "K" (Kara, Kal-El), have the same powers as him, they both lost their families during Krypton's destruction, ended up on Earth, were raised by a human family and wear glasses to conceal their identity. They are also reporters of two separate companies, the *Daily Planet* and CatCo and enemy with a Luthor sibling (Lena and Lex). However, the differences are Kara's biological parents are still alive and while Clark's and Lex's relationship remains strained, Kara and Lena eventually reconcile.
* Kara is seen in 6 crossovers: *World's Finest, Invasion!, Duet, Crisis on Earth-X Elseworlds, Crisis on Infinite Earths.*
* Kara had also appeared in the Earth- Prime comics, where she finally meets Barry's children and Oliver's daugher, Mia.
* Kara is extremely close with her cousin-in-law, Lois, with the former treating the latter as a sister because of her own strained relationship with Lucy
* Of all Kara's relationships, fans were dead set at the Kara/Lena pairing as it evolved.
* Barry was the first individual Kara met from another Earth.

* Kara enjoys the TV shows *Homeland*, *Orphan Black*, *Game of Thrones*, and *The Wire*. She also adores Star Wars and musicals (especially *The Wizard of Oz*.)

* Her favorite dessert is Eliza's homemade chocolate pecan pie
