“Kara Zor-El has seen some epic adventures over the years, but finds her life without meaning or purpose. She is a young woman who saw her planet destroyed and was sent to Earth to protect a baby cousin who ended up not needing her. What was it all for? Wherever she goes, people only see her through the lens of Superman’s fame. Just when Supergirl thinks she’s had enough, everything changes.”
“An alien girl seeks her out for a vicious mission. Her world has been destroyed, and the bad guys responsible are still out there. She wants revenge, and if Supergirl doesn’t help her, she’ll do it herself, whatever the cost. Now a Kryptonian, a dog, and an angry, heartbroken child head out into space on a journey that will shake them to their very core.”
Overall, this storyline sets the stage for an emotional and thrilling space adventure, while also showcasing Supergirl’s growth as she faces both external threats and internal struggles.
