In 2015, the CBS TV network produced a new superhero spin-off drama "Supergirl" (the second season was replaced by CW), forming a major youth audience with CW's "Arrow" and "The Flash". The combination of superhero drama series, and the protagonist "Supergirl (Supergirl)" has also begun to be known by more people. It turns out that Superman has such a powerful relative.
In fact, as early as 2010 DC's animated film "Superman and Batman: Apocalypse", Supergirl has been introduced into the DC superhero animation system as the female number one. Speaking of which, the name "Superwoman" may not be very strict, because there have been many characters called "Superwoman" in the history of DC, such as "Superwoman" played by Superman's girlfriend Louise Lane. Therefore, it may be more appropriate to translate "Supergirl" as "Super Girl" or "Super Girl".
However, in the setting of Super Girl, DC has also made many changes. At first, the girl named Carla Zo-El appeared as Superman's cousin, but she suddenly reappeared as Superman's cousin in the first issue of the 2004 "Superman and Batman" comic series. , but the body and memory still maintain the state of a teenage girl. Of course, after the "New 52" restarted DC, her settings have changed again, and she is even incompatible with her cousin Superman.
According to the year in which "Superman and Batman: Apocalypse" was released, Supergirl should follow the setting of Superman's cousin, but this is not deliberately mentioned in the film, and in terms of appearance and mind, it is just a little A girl, so right and think of her as Superman's cousin. In the film, Superman also plays more of the role of the big brother, and treats him as his only family member and spoils him. He not only accompanies her to buy clothes, but also protects her shortcomings when she makes mistakes, which makes people feel expensive. Superman also has a normal human side.
The three giants (Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman) appearing in this film are quite arguing about educating their children. Superman sings the red face and spoils Cara too much; Batman sings the white face and advocates strict discipline for her; Wonder Woman is impartial, on the one hand, she takes Cara to her paradise island for training, instructing her how to use her skills more properly , on the one hand, as a woman, she is persuasive and persuasive to appease her perverse willfulness.
Of course, you still have to find your own way. Just like the teenagers on earth, Kara, who is in the rebellious period of her youth, is very resistant to the advice of the "parents". She doesn't want to take responsibility and only wants full freedom. As a result, Darkseid, the dark king who was recruiting for horses, took a fancy to her powerful ability, took her to the Apocalypse Star and controlled her mind, becoming the captain of his women's special attack team. It is necessary to introduce Darkseid, the king of darkness, one of the most powerful super villains in the DC multiverse, the ruler of the Apocalypse, who has conquered multiple universes, and the omega rays that shoot out of his eyes are extremely powerful. Fortunately, in the end, the heroes rescued Kara and defeated Darkseid on Earth.
After this catastrophe and the death of her friend Laila because of herself, Kara finally woke up and decided to use her abilities to take on more responsibilities. Like most of DC's animated films, "Superman and Batman: Apocalypse" is mainly to introduce Supergirl into the story line, and it still takes a relatively simple and rough path, and the characters and plot are basically negligible. But watching the big three quarreling over educational methods is fresh and interesting, making these superheroes who have always defended the safety of the earth also brought some fireworks.
