As Matrix, she touched the Eradicator and was affected by its programming. She could have easily been given knowledge of Kryptonian language, and she was treated as a member of the Kent family more so than Kara Zor-El ever was.David 2https://www.blogger.com/profile/12138208895799312312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-61975671845127819752009-02-25T13:38:00.000-05:002009-02-25T13:38:00.000-05:00It can't be Power Girl based on what we know about...It can't be Power Girl based on what we know about her physiology.

My own gut instincts are now narrowing the list of contenders down to them being...<BR/><BR/>1) Thara Ak-Var, wanting to prove she's come in to her own since Kara last saw her being kidnapped by Brainiac in Kandor on ancient Krypton<BR/><BR/>2) A young adult aged Lesla Lar<BR/><BR/>and finally...<BR/><BR/>3) The Eradicator taking the form of an young adult Kara Zor-El<BR/><BR/>these main 3 are the most likely candidates to me now in the end.<BR/><BR/>Personally, I think it's the 3rd contender myself.

Now IF Superwoman ended up turning out to be her I think it would utterly rock! Not only is she a perfect fit characterization wise (which would explain how she could off Agent Liberty so easy, what with her being a female trained warrior first and foremost mentality wise) but it would be a great way to boost her rep in the DCU to the big leagues at that as well as tying Wonder/Super-family legacies in to this now in the process!<BR/><BR/>Also, a super-suit that has the capabilities to replicate a Kryptonian super-abilities that Artemis would don isn't too far fetched and the revelation of Artemis would explain as to exactly why Supergirl is so shocked to see who's been under the lead lined mask this whole time too! If it was YOUR trainer/mentor who knew you before even your cousin Superman ever could (as seen in <I>Superman/Batman: The Supergirl from Krypton</I> arc) come Kara being trained under Artemis guide I think you too would be equally dumbfounded, no?<BR/><BR/>Or, what if Superwoman IS indeed from Krypton but NOT an actual Kryptonian being though! What I mean by that is what if the almost robotic like behavior displayed at times was due to actually Superwoman was formerly a IT and that it in particular is none other then the Eradicator! Now THAT would be a really cool way to bring back the Eradicator and answer as to why Superwoman responds to Reactron after being blasted by Gold K in saying "Who said I'm Kryptonian?" eh? Maybe it was meant as yeah I actually AM from Krypton but NOT a living breathing Kryptonian being though.<BR/><BR/>What do rest of y'all here think as to these 2 new possibilities come Superwoman's actual identity? :/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-91101067633985247882009-02-23T08:47:00.000-05:002009-02-23T08:47:00.000-05:00You seem to be circling back to my big idea of las...You seem to be circling back to my big idea of last week that SW is a bizarro...supporting this is the notion that Lex Luthor had manipulated Kryptonian DNA before...but never with any long term success.
