## Summary

Kara Zor-El was the cousin of Kal-El and the Adoptive aunt of Jonathan and Jordan.

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, Eliza and Jeremiah who raised her alongside their daughter Alex, 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. She has become one of the world's greatest heroes, revered for her kindness and will to help others.

Kara 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.

## Trivia

* Kara was initially thought to be the last daughter of Krypton until it was revealed that her mother and the Kryptonian race survived when a shield was activated by Zor-El to save that section of Krypton.
* It is rather ironic that on Earth-167, Kara and J'onn are both hostile towards each other while on Earth-38 and Earth-Prime, they have a father-daughter relationship.
* Kara and James were both love interests in *Smallville* and *Supergirl*.
* Both Kara and Clark have an almost sibling-like relationship similar to their *Smallville* counterparts.
