Headstrong, worldly-wise, and often reckless, Supergirl exudes a brand of heroism all her own \u2014 truthful, relatable, and always on her own terms. But when an unexpected and ruthless adversary strikes too close to home, Kara reluctantly joins forces with an unlikely companion. Together they undertake an epic, interstellar journey, struggling to balance one\u2019s need for vengeance with the pursuit of justice \u2014 and to save the life of Kara\u2019s best friend, her dog Krypto.
