Issue Supergirl 6 Subtitle Candor part one Date April 2006 Writer(s) Greg Rucka Artist(s) Ed Benes, Norm Rapmund storyline In the bottled city of Kandor, Supergirl got a tattoo on her upper back. As she was leaving, she was approached by three unsavory looking aliens. There appeared to be a schism between the "saved" (Kryptonians) and the "damned" (other aliens). Nightwing (Power Girl in an armored outfit) ordered them to release her. Kara threw her primary attacker through a wall and confronted the rest. As she was about to deliver eye blasts to the final attacker, Nightwing (PG) saved him by standing between them. She flew Kara back to their hideout. Karen decided it was time for them to leave Kandor - Kara was losing her temper far too frequently. Kara refused to go, hoping to find her way back to Argo (her Kryptonian home). Since she truly believed she could find her way home, Karen agreed to help her as soon as they'd completed their mission. Nightwing (PG) and Flamebird (SG) broke up a religious rally (the "true" Kryptonians were forcing other aliens into their servitude). They took down the false followers of Kal-el and released their prisoners. The "true" children realized the fake Nightwing and Flamebird were also Kryptonian as Supergirl's tattoo (in Kryptonese) was visible after her armor was damaged.

Issue Supergirl 7 Subtitle Candor part two Date June 2006 Writer(s) Joe Kelly, Greg Rucka Artist(s) Ian Churchill, Norm Rapmund storyline The leader of Kandor's religion decided the Kryptonian heretics Nightwing and Flamebird must be saved or destroyed. While showering, Kara fought off memories of Krypton and Kal-el. Karen interrupted her and told her she would not allow her to leave if she crossed the line and took a life. The tattoo artist who'd Kara had used was questioned by the leader. He broadcast a message to the heretics: 100 would be killed each hour until they'd turned themselves in. The duo swooped down to save some aliens, but one was a decoy and exploded. Flamebird (SG) attacked the leader and saw him as Kal-el. She remembered Krypton and being given the order to kill her cousin (which is why she left Metropolis in the first place). She unmasked before him and they kissed.

Supergirl had broken them out of Kandor. They argued over whether or not it was their fight in the first place. Kara went out with Boomerang, Jr. They talked, danced, played pool, and flew to Japan for sushi. She thought of Wonder Girl and the time she'd spent at the Kent farm. She'd sold a Kryptonian device which would scan its owner and rewrite his / her flawed genetic code to Batman for $1million. After being walked home, she saved a young girl from being hit by a truck. She and Cassie (Wonder Girl) had a crying bit.
