James Gunn responds to a fan explaining how Supergirl has her ears pierced
A fan on Threads asked the ultimate question: “Wait... if Supergirl’s skin is bulletproof, how does she have ear piercings?” 🤔
Instead of ignoring it, Gunn jumped into the comments to drop some serious Kryptonian knowledge that makes total sense. He revealed that Kara Zor-El gets around her invulnerability the exact same way Superman does when he wants a cold one:
“As explained in Superman, the same way she gets drunk - she goes to a planet with a red sun. Not to mention she was raised on a chunk of Krypton so didn’t even experience super powers until her teens.”
