15 Mind-Blowing Facts About Supergirl You Need To Know

8. She's More Powerful Than Superman

Well, maybe. Superman and Supergirl have only come to blows on a handful of occasions over the years, but the Man of Steel's cousin has actually bested him in battle during many of those encounters. It's thought her not holding back is what makes her stronger, but it's a tough argument and the debate rages on as a result (Superman is well known for not unleashing the full extent of his abilities) Some fans argue that Supergirl growing up on Krypton is what gives her the edge, while others reckon that Superman having more time on Earth to absorb the sun's rays means he has to be more powerful. This is one of those popular comic book debates unlikely to ever be resolved, but the fact that Supergirl has kicked her cousin's ass so many times arguably provides the definitive answer of who's the strongest. Whatever the answer may be though, Supergirl is still one of the most powerful beings in the DC Universe because her abilities are at least on par with those utilised by her cousin.
