On Krypton, Zor-El discovers that the planet is doomed, and he and his family travel to Earth, where they gain super-powers. Not long after, Gold Kryptonite takes away the powers of Zor-El and Allura, and they train their young daughter Kara to grow into a super-heroine. Years later, after Zor-El and Allura die, Kara's cousin Kal-El arrives on Earth from Argo City, and she gives him a secret identity so that he can secretly train to use his new super-powers.
