[b]Supergirl[/b], also known by her Kryptonian name as [b]Kara Zor-El[/b] is a character from [[DC Comics]]' [[Superman (series)|]] series. She is the young female counterpart of [[Superman]], usually having the same powers as he does.

There are many iterations of the character "Supergirl", but the most well-known and generally considered the "base" version is Kara Zor-El. She came from Argo City, which survived the destruction of her home planet Krypton but soon came to its own destruction. As Superman (Kal-El) is the last son of Krypton, then Supergirl, his cousin, is the last daughter of Krypton, with both coming from the same family house of El. She wears a female version of Superman's costume that usually gives her a [[skirt]] among other feminine alterations depending on her variation.

For an older female counterpart to Superman and her variations or costumes based on them, use the [[Superwoman]] tag.
