Supergirl: Ranking Every Character From Worst To Best

While all superheroes are inspiring in their own way, none have ever been more so than the Girl of Steel.

The last daughter of Krypton, Kara was initially sent to Earth to protect her younger cousin, Kal-El, but a few delays along the way resulted in her arriving long after he had become Superman. That, however, became her launching pad as, after years of longing to do so, she revealed herself to the world and extended their family legacy by becoming the hero known as Supergirl.

Every bit as inspirational as her cousin, Supergirl has dealt with love, loss and everything in between as she battled the worst threats that the universe had sent her way and continued to come out the other side (with an inspirational speech or two for good measure).

Fighting crime out in the open, while fighting the good fight as a reporter, Kara has proven that there is a superhero in all of us and, in doing so, has inspired countless people watching at home that it's up to them to find it within themselves. Furthermore, Melissa Benoist's incredibly endearing performance is nothing short of heart-warming.

Earth's champion, Supergirl has broken free from her cousin's shadow over the last few years to create her own legacy and long may she continue to do so.

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's Supergirl.
