Supergirl and Trauma in Woman of Tomorrow: Dead Kryptonite, Red Suns, and Why It Matters

Описание: There’s been a lot of noise about “why is Supergirl drunk all the time?” and it’s one of those takes that makes sense until you actually read the story Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow is pulling from.

In this episode, we break down the real context: Argo City’s slow death in space, what that kind of loss does to Kara over years, and why the “drinking” is tied to a memorial ritual where she goes somewhere with a red sun so her powers drop enough for her to actually feel anything. It’s not played as a joke. It’s grief, survivor’s guilt, and a version of Kara that’s been through more than most people realize.

We also talk about what makes Woman of Tomorrow such a strong sci fi ride, including the story’s setup with Ruthye, Krem of the Yellow Hills, Kara starting out basically powerless, and the whole “bus trip into a yellow sun district” progression as things escalate. Plus, quick thoughts on the DCU vibe, what Krypto adds, and why this tone could translate really well on screen.
