The San Diego Comic-Con 2015 is now days away from happening and the cast and crew of one of the WBTV super hero shows, "Supergirl," will be coming over to the event to dish out some information of the upcoming CBS program.
But fans need not to wait for this Saturday to find out more of what's coming to the Melissa Benoist-led show. The latest scoop from Entertainment Weekly's Spoiler Room segment dropped some teasers.
It was found out that Kara Zor-El/Kara Danvers (Benoist) will already have the knowledge about her powers, although she may not be as adept at wielding them as her male Kryptonian cousin.

Executive producer Ali Adler said that there will certainly be a flashback scene which will feature Kara discovering her otherworldly abilities.
"We'll absolutely see some flashbacks of her discovering them, because she was 12 years old when she landed here, and she didn't have these powers on Krypton," she told Entertainment Weekly.
The earlier parts of the season will also show Kara learning to use the powers.
"Kara hasn't used these powers very much or very well. There will definitely be a learning curve at the beginning of the season," Adler added.
Benoist, meanwhile, spoke with the publication to tell that getting the superheroine part is "a huge sense of responsibility" for her.
"I want to do right," she said. "Of course, this is a broad statement, but I want to do right by women. I want to portray someone they can relate to and look up to that's not a trite or a shallow depiction."
"I want her to be complicated and flawed. I don't want it to be campy. I want it to be grounded and human."
"Supergirl" is slated to launch Oct. 26 on CBS.
