My Adventures with Superman is set to introduce its own version of Supergirl in Season 2’s upcoming episode, and it’s creating a buzz for giving Kara Zor-El a makeover reminiscent of Dragon Ball’s Android 18.
The animated series has been presenting fresh takes on classic DC characters like Clark Kent, Lois Lane, and Jimmy Olsen, and now it’s continuing this trend with a new interpretation of Supergirl.
The first promo for Season 2, Episode 5, titled “Most Eligible Superman,” reveals Kara Zor-El’s arrival on Earth, sporting a look that nods to one of Android 18’s iconic outfits from Dragon Ball.
The episode, set to air on Saturday, June 15th at midnight EST on Adult Swim, teases a storyline where Superman’s title as Metropolis’ most eligible bachelor strains his relationship with Lois, while Jimmy gives a city tour to a girl on a mission to find her long-lost cousin.
New episodes of My Adventures with Superman are available on Max the day after airing, allowing fans to catch up with the series.
Adult Swim describes the new season as facing a slew of fresh challenges: foes from Clark’s alien heritage, Amanda Waller targeting Superman, Lois confronting her future, and Jimmy Olsen spending extravagantly. The looming threat of Krypton will push the trio’s strength, loyalty, and love to their limits.
