    Storyline

    Meet the New Boss
    Meet the New Boss

    Dal Kir-Ta was one of the many Kryptonian victims of Brainiac's taking of Kandor shortly before Krypton's destruction. She survived the attack and was taken as one of Brainiac's captive specimens. The rest of her family did not survive. Drafted into the Military Guild, she made that her surrogate family, specifically the Red Shard unit she served within.

    Dal had a new commanding officer after Kandor was liberated and relocated to New Krypton. It was Superman, the one responsible for it all. His style of command seemed to conflict with her harder, more efficient minded matter. But this did not keep her from loyally following his orders.

    When reigning in a herd of stampeding Thought-Beasts, Dal was mentally assaulted with one of her worst fears. This manifested itself as a hallucination that she was burning to death, implying that she has some trauma or fear regarding fire. Commander El was able to snap her out of it and focus her on completing their mission. Still, she thought it would have been simpler to kill the Thought-Beasts rather than the method Commander El employed. She voiced her criticism and was informed by Commander El that this did not mean it would have been better.
