DC introduces new Supergirl as Kara Zor-El steps aside - Geo News

DC introduced a new Supergirl but the change came with a big surprise for fans.

Kara Zor El, who has always been known as Superman's cousin, is giving the famous name to another hero after losing her powers.

The change, however, takes place in the latest issue of Supergirl. Kara lost her powers after coming into contact with Gold Kryptonite.

This stopped her from taking in sunlight, which she needs to stay strong so with Kara unable to use her powers, other members of her team wanted to take her place.

Kara, moreover, got someone else in mind as she chose Thundergirl, a hero who was first seen in the comic as a clone created in the city of Kandor.

Her creators wanted to use her as a weapon but she managed to escape their control and choose her own path.

Thundergirl also has some unusual powers. She can fly, has great strength and can use her voice to send out powerful sound blasts.

Still, she never felt fully comfortable with who she is or where she belongs to.

So now, becoming Supergirl can give her a new purpose. Kara also asked her to lead the Super Force team but Kara is still hoping to get her powers back.
