Sterling Gates just revealed on Bluesky he pitched a Supergirl miniseries in 2022 that would’ve had every character who ever called herself Supergirl in it

And DC said no.

EVERY.

SUPERGIRL.

EVER.

Supergirl is, to me, just like any of us: a constant storm of contradictions and juxtapositions That's what makes her interesting. She proudly wears the S-shield and is constantly trying to live up to that symbol (and therefore, her family legacy) even as she wants to be her own person. She's physically invulnerable while emotionally vulnerable. She's strong, she's weak, she's unstoppable, she's easily defeated (especially when she's surprised by something new). She's funny she's serious. She says her motto-"Hope, help, and compassion for all"- without an ounce of cynicism in her voice. She doesn't suffer fools gladly, she outthinks her opponents, and she has empathy for even the most dark-hearted of villains.

If Superman is the physical or moral ideal of humankind, Supergirl should be the emotional heroic ideal. Supergirl is all all the emotions and feelings, strengths and insecurities that humanities experiences every day, wrapped inside one immigrant teenage girl who's trying to do what is right by her family and her world and the symbol on her chest.

Incredibly bizarre to me that the man who wrote Mr. & Mrs. Mxyzptlk (aka the comp het nonsense episode after Luthors) also pitched a Supergirl audio drama where a young Kara would’ve been in a romantic, queer relationship with a young Siobhan and they had to team up to take down Black Banshee.
