Kara Danvers (Earth-38)

"My name is Kara Zor-El. When I was younger, my home planet was dying. Saving it was hopeless. My father sent me to Earth to take care of my baby cousin who went before me...and I thought we were the only two survivors and that everyone else from our planet was dead."

- Kara Zor-El to Nyxly

Kara Danvers (born 1970s as Kara Zor-El) is a reporter for CatCo Worldwide Media, the leader of the Superfriends, a member of the Justice League and the vigilante known as Supergirl.

Early Life
"I was stuck in the Phantom Zone replaying the destruction of my planet for nearly a decade."

- Kara Zor-El on her past

During the destruction of Krypton, a young Kara was sent by her parents to Earth in an escape pod. She was sent to protect her baby cousin, Kal-El, who was sent moments before her.

"When I landed on Earth, I was alone. My adoptive mother raised me as her own, with kindness and compassion. And my sister, she showed me what it truly means to be strong. To love so fiercely, it hurts. She taught me what it means to be human. She was my first companion on this planet. Without her, I wouldn't be the hero, the person I am today."

- Kara's recording

However, her pod was knocked off course and was stuck in the Phantom Zone for years. Later, her pod was reactivated and arrived on Earth, with her cousin already grown up to be Superman. She was then adopted by the Danvers family and was raised in Midvale.

On May 10, 2008, Kara had her first kiss with Kenny Li.

Luckiest Town in America
"When I left for college, Kara and her boyfriend, Kenny, appointed themselves the town's Scooby-Duo. They were saving cats from trees and kids from wells, that sort of thing, and the, uh, town got quite the reputation."

- Alex Danvers

At some point prior to 2009, Kara and Kenny started helping the people in need. Their actions were then reported by The Midvale Weekly, which nicknamed Midvale as the "luckiest town in America". However, the specific actions of them were not reported and were considered miracles.

On May 25, 2020, Kara, Kenny and Alex had dinner. Alex then talked to Kara about her struggle between going to Midvale University or National City University, where she was accepted. Kara and Kenny were interrupted by a crashing aircraft and attempted to sneak out in front of Alex. Alex was able to see through their attempt of lying and offered them a ride.

Arrived back in the Midvale High's baseball diamond field center field, Kara heard two unknown individuals saying her name. Kara then assumed they are psychic aliens, with them confirming her assumption. However, their spacecraft was damaged on impact and Kara and Kenny performed "Groundhog Day" and hid the spacecraft under the field. Kara and Kenny later offered "Brenda" and "Brandon" to sleep in their respective houses for the night.

Before they sleep, Kara and "Brenda" talked about their respective past on a damaged planet. They then showed each other their powers with Kara levitating next to "Brenda"'s bubble. They were quickly interrupted by Alex, who scolded them and told them to go to sleep.

The next day, Kara, "Brenda" and Alex went to Midvale University using Eliza's I.D. card. They then sneaked into the exhibit as Alex talks to reporter CJ Grant. "Brenda" used her powers and unlocked the box to the Dysprosium. hiding it in Kara's backpack. As they leave the university, they were confronted by an unmanned tank truck about to hit the school bus ahead. Alex drove her car towards the truck and allowed Kara and "Brenda" to climb onto the truck, trying to stop it. However, the breaks and gear stick does not work. Nia then told Kara to ice breath the wheels and slow it down, eventually preventing them from being shot by a cloaked alien ship. "Brandon" then quickly arrived, later leaving with them on Alex's car.

Later, Alex scolded Kara on being irresponsible and how she had sacrificed countless things for Kara. She also told her that if she wants to show her that she is responsible, she should tell Kenny that she was accepted in NCU. Kara then stormed off to the woods, where Kenny led her to old man Watson's barn. Kenny then showed her the bunker he made for her, with a log where they had their first kiss on. Kenny then told her that this is what they will do forever, with Kara hesitating on telling the truth to Kenny.

Crisis on Infinite Earths
In January 2020, Kara woke up in her loft and nearly shot her sister using her heat vision. She was then confused by the recreation of the Multiverse and Nia Nal called her about the Peace Award Ceremony, reminding her of going to cover the story. She then arrived to the ceremony using her super speed, only to realize her enemy as well as former situational ally, Lex Luthor was the award recipient.

After the ceremony, Kara returned to the D.E.O. Headquarters and found out that in the new world the D.E.O. was part of Luthor Corp.

However, they were informed that even Oliver exists in the new world, his death remains a constant and inevitable. As they mourns, the team was informed that a giant Beebo attacked the city.

Facing her Past
Later, Kara was approached by Mxyzptlk to change her past friendship with Lena. Kara then attempted to fix several milestones in their relationship but often resulted in her death. They then attempted to change for the final time and Mxy showed Kara the timeline she wanted, only to realize that it resulted in a dystopian world and the Superfriends became a group of resistance. However, the lack of Fifth Dimension energy affected Mxy's abilities to return home. Kara then arrived in the Tower and asked for her teammates' help. The team then split into three groups, one with Mxy to find the Fifth Dimension Hat, one to buy time at Lena's base, and one to fight back a ruthless Brainy and Reign. With Mxy regaining his powers, he sent Kara and himself back to the loft.

After the exhausting experience, Kara decided the best way is to leave the timeline as what it is and talk to Lena.

Friendship with Lena
