Last Daughter of Krypton (0/1)

Kara Zor-El, Supergirl, died in the "Crisis of Infinite Earths" mini-series
in the mid 1980's. Post-Crisis, other characters, like Superman and Wonder
Woman, were "rebooted" and brought forward into the new DC Universe. But the
powers that be at DC Comics decided that Superman was the one and only
Kryptonian. His blonde cousin was not revamped and likewise brought forward.
Eventually, new versions of Supergirl did come about. Matrix, an artificial
being created by an alternative Lex Luthor from another universe appeared.
Modeled on that universe's Lana Lang, she eventually came to wear the "S."
As Supergirl, Matrix bonded with a human woman, Linda Danvers, to save that
woman's life. The merged entity, while still Supergirl, has become an Earth
angel.
A teenaged Supergirl, Kara In-Zee, appeared in the animated TV series. A
resident not of Krypton, but of a sister world called Argos, this version
has become popular, but she's still not the original.
The original Kara Zor-El was forever delegated to fond memories of older
comic readers.
This story is the first in a series that provides a possible way in which
the original Supergirl could be brought into the current post-Crisis,
post-Zero Hour, post-Kingdom Come DC world.
