Judging by its trailer, DC Studios' Supergirl will remain mostly faithful to the Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow comic that inspired it (with some exceptions).

An interstellar mercenary with a big mouth and an even larger kill count, Lobo was created by writer Roger Slifer and artist Keith Giffen in 1983. He first appeared in Omega Men #3, a comic following a team of extraterrestrial superheroes that fight crime and, sometimes, each other.

Supergirl director Craig Gillespie revealed he wasn’t familiar with the character’s lore before helming the film, and stated he read the movie’s screenplay before reading the Woman of Tomorrow miniseries.

First created by Otto Binder and Al Plastino back in 1959, Supergirl has gone through multiple incarnations in both the DC comic books and other media, from the cult 1984 Supergirl movie starring Helen Slater to the popular TV show with Melissa Benoist that ran for six seasons, first on CBS before moving to The CW.

The teaser trailer has landed for Supergirl, the next DCU movie starring Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El and Jason Momoa as Lobo.

Woman of Tomorrow. Turns out, one of the main reasons for DC Studios dropping the subtitle might have been staring right at us all along.

The trailer for Supergirl sets up surviving cities on Krypton, which could be a big seed for Man of Tomorrow to explore.
