During the Convergence story arc, the original Kara Zor-El who had sacrificed her life during Crisis on Infinite Earths makes an appearance on the amalgamated planet of Telos.

Said blonde girl calmly gets up, and walks towards Krem, ignoring several more arrows becoming embedded in her bust.

Ruthye: "I believe she lived her life in pain. But I reiterate again, for I think it important enough to repeat— These beliefs are based on my time at her side, watching her as she moved through strife and sorrow. If you were to have asked her, I have little doubt she would have claimed that such an assertion was absurd."
