Flame
Vision - similar to Superman's heat vision but much more powerful.
Much cooler than those wimpy beams he uses to heat up his coffee ^_-
When Supergirl was reintroduced into the current continuity as a protoplasmic
being, she was not given heat vision as one of her powers. The introduction
of flame vision came in SUPERGIRL #15 as the first of her mysterious
new powers as an "earth-born angel" but was foreshadowed as
early as issue #9.
Wings of Fire - these first appeared in SUPERGIRL #17 as one
of her special powers as an earth-born angel of fire. Capable of inflicting
great damage upon the most stubborn of opponents, they also enable her
to "shunt" or teleport to distant locations instantly. My
favorite among her new powers ^_-
Shapeshifting
- she is able to morph between her physically distinct Linda and Supergirl
forms. This solves the problem of trying to prevent people from recognizing
her - she literally does not look like Supergirl in her human identity.
Unfortunately for her, this power does not extend to clothing, so she
must still hide her costume under her street clothes ^_^
Invulnerability
- Supergirl's invulnerability is due to her telekinetic shielding, but
under certain circumstances, if she is distracted, she can be
hurt. Kryptonite does not appear to affect her.
Superstrength and Superspeed round out Supergirl's impressive
array of superpowers.
