Kara Danvers is the daughter of the late scientist Zor-El and judicator Alura. Kara was sent to Earth from the dying planet of Krypton to protect her younger cousin Kal-El. However, Kara's pod was knocked off course by Krypton's explosion, sending her ship into the Phantom Zone where she slept for twenty-four years, while being suspended in time and not aging. Her pod later escaped, and she arrived on Earth where she was placed with the Danvers family by a now-adult Kal-El, who was known to the humans as "Clark Kent". She is the adoptive sister of Alex Danvers, the ex-best friend of Lena Luthor and the ex-girlfriend of Mon-El. She was the personal assistant of Cat Grant at CatCo Worldwide Media until she was promoted to reporter, and is the superheroine known as Supergirl, stylized as the "Girl of Steel," the "Maiden of Might," and the "Last Daughter of Krypton."
After Red Daughter attacked the White House pretending to be Supergirl, Kara was forced to hide in her civilian persona. She was nearly killed by a misled Red Daughter, but she seeps solar radiation from the flora around her, allowing her to heal. She later merged with Red Daughter, gaining new strength that allowed her to subdue Lex Luthor.
