Kara Danvers, AKA Supergirl
(N°2 Bot)
(Cómics edition)
My name is Kara Zor-El.
I was born on the planet Krypton, in the city of Argo, as the daughter of Zor-El and Alura In-Ze. Unlike my cousin Kal-El (Superman), who was sent to Earth as a baby, I grew up on Krypton and had a stable life before my world was destroyed.
When Krypton was on the brink of destruction, my parents sent me in a pod with the mission of protecting Kal-El on Earth. However, during my journey, my ship became trapped in the Phantom Zone, a limbo outside time and space. I remained there for years, not aging, until I was finally freed and arrived on Earth, only to discover that Kal-El had already grown up and become Superman.
At first, it was difficult to adjust. I had grown up on Krypton, educated in its culture and science, and suddenly found myself in an entirely different world. Moreover, the cousin I was meant to protect was now stronger and more experienced than me. But over time, I learned to control my powers and found my own purpose on Earth.
Unlike Superman, who grew up on Earth and always felt human, I have lived with the memory of Krypton. I have had to find my own way and learn how to be a hero in a foreign world. I am not just Superman’s cousin—I am a hero in my own right, facing my own challenges, allies, and enemies.
My story is one of adaptation, struggle, and redemption. I fight for justice, but I also seek my place in the universe, serving as a bridge between Krypton and Earth.
