* The [[http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel_dc/images/3/33/Action_Comics_252.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20060811145127 cover]] of ''Comicbook/ActionComics #252''. Superman sees a teenage girl flying out of a Kryptonian rocketship while wearing a version of his own costume, and his first reaction is "A girl, flying! It — uh — must be an illusion!"

* In ''Action Comics #286'', Lex Luthor shoots at Supergirl and [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/action_286_31.jpg he notes that "the bullets only bounce off"]]. ''Seriously, Lex?'' You all of people forgot Kryptonians are bullet-proof?

* In ''Superman'' Volume 1 #176, Superman and Supergirl celebrate a Kryptonian holyday called the Day of Truth in where Kryptonians honor the memory of a hero by speaking nothing but the truth, not matter the cost. The thing is, both cousins may be incredibly, astonishingly, rudely ''blunt''. So, when Supergirl's fan club gives Kara a lunch:

* ''[[http://www.comicbookbrain.com/_imagery/2012-11-07/action-comics-cover-324.jpg Action Comics #324 cover]]'' featuring devil Supergirl stirring a cauldron and pranking her cousin is another wonderful example of Silver Age delightful silliness.
* The cover of ''Action Comics 360'' is a Supergirl-themed Goose Game: [[http://www.comicbookbrain.com/_imagery/2015-08-22/supergirl-action-comics-360.jpg link]].
* In ''Adventure Comics'' #409, Supergirl gets to fight a band of dragon-costumed muggers, and she can't stop herself:

* In ''ComicBook/{{Superboy}} Vol. 1'' #204 [[ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes Brainiac 5]] creates a Supergirl robot to be a girlfriend in his sleep. It is both hilarious, creepy, and a wonderful example of [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks Silver Age]] nuttery.
* In ''Comicbook/ActionComics'' # 402 "Feud of the Titans", Superman and Supergirl are accidentally exposed to a bio-chemical weapon which makes them hate each other. This is story is both hilarious (both cousins are incredibly and ridiculously petty: Kara puts up an energy barrier to keep Kal off her side of the Fortress, and he retaliates by smashing her trophies) and scary (imagine two Earth-1 Kryptonians decide to fight seriously. They would tear the planet apart).
* In ''Superman Family'' issue #204, Enchantress is draining Supergirl's powers. Supergirl manages to run away by streaking into space and then remembers Enchantress said her spell depends on an astral alignment being exactly right. So she ''kicks the Moon out of orbit'' and once June Moon's spell is disrupted, ''kicks the Moon back into place''. So, [[http://comicboxcommentary.blogspot.com.es/2011/05/back-issue-box-superman-family-204-and.html is it awesome, hilarious or plainly nuts?]]:
-->In a perfect moment of late Silver Age lunacy, Supergirl literally kicks the moon slightly out of its orbit. That is one mighty kick! You either love moments like these for their lunacy or hate them for their stupidity.

* In ''[[ComicBook/Supergirl1982 Supergirl (Vol 2)]]'' issue #19 two crooks stalking a park at night spot a woman sitting alone on a bench. They approach her from behind and bludgeon her with a pipe... which gets bent. Then they notice her ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} costume... and her pissed off expression.

* Linda Danvers, in order to save the Pre-Crisis Supergirl's life, goes back in time to the Pre-Crisis universe and attempts to bluff Superman into believing she's his cousin. Her attempts to make up a story explaining how she's younger than him but from Krypton are a combination of BlatantLies and EpicFail. Made doubly funny for the ContinuityNod and GeniusBonus of being Supergirl's legitimate Pre-Crisis origins (which just SOUND like an {{Asspull}}) when said aloud). Superman pretends to be fooled, only to point out, years later, her costume is made of cotton and other Earth fabrics plus the fact he could tell she was not Kryptonian at a glance due to the whole super-senses thing. It becomes a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}} when the Pre-Crisis Superman chooses to reveal he fell in love with her anyway.
* This exchange in ''Supergirl vol 4 #77'':
-->'''Kara Zor-El:''' I'm looking through it. It's amazing. All the '''equipment''' I'm seeing. So many sizes and shapes...\\
'''Linda Danvers:''' All the ...? '''Kara'''! Just '''where''' are you looking?!\\
'''Kara:''' The equipment room, where they keep all the sporting stuff, why?\\
'''Linda:''' Oh, I thought you were peeping in at the guy's lock-- Forget it. My '''own''' dirty mind.
* In ''Supergirl (Volume 5)'' #1, Supergirl helps the Justice Society out with Solomon Grundy. You'd think they'd be grateful. You'd think wrong.

* In ''Supergirl Vol. 5'' #19, Supergirl lampshades Pariah's SesquipedalianLoquaciousness.

* When Supergirl and ComicBook/WonderGirl hug, with [[LesYay Kara's arms around Cassie's neck and Cassie's arms around Kara's waist]]. Just as it starts getting good, Ravager (Rose Wilson) [[MomentKiller shoots them with a rocket launcher as a prank]].

* In ''Superman'' Volume 1 #176, Superman and Supergirl celebrate a Kryptonian holyday called the Day of Truth in where Kryptonians honor the memory of an hero by speaking nothing but the truth, not matter the cost. The thing is, both cousins may be incredibly, astonishingly, rudely ''blunt''. So, when Supergirl's fan club gives Kara a lunch:

* In ''ComicBook/{{Superboy}} Vol. 1'' #204 [[ComicBook/{{Legion Of Super-Heroes}} Brainiac 5]] creates a Supergirl robot to be a girlfriend in his sleep. It is both hilarious, creepy, and a wonderful example of [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks Silver Age]] nuttery.

!![[Comicbook/{{Supergirl}} The books]]

* In ''Comicbook/ActionComics'' # 402 "Feud of the Titans", Superman and Supergirl are accidentally exposed to a bio-chemical weapon which makes them hate each other. This is story is both hilarious (both cousins are incredibly and ridiculously petty: Kara puts up an energy barrier to keep Kal off her side of the Fortress, and he retaliates by smashing her torphies) and scary (imagine they -two Earth-1 Kryptonians- decide to fight seriously. They would tear the planet apart).

* Linda Danvers, in order to save the Pre-Crisis Supergirl's life, goes back in time to the Pre-Crisis universe and attempts to bluff Superman into believing she's his cousin. Her attempts to make up a story explaining how she's younger than him but from Krypton are a combination of BlatantLies and EpicFail. Made doubly funny for the ContinuityNod and GeniusBonus of being Supergirl's legitimate Pre-Crisis origins (which just SOUND like an {{Asspull}}) when said aloud). Superman pretends to be fooled, only to point out, years later, her costume is made of cotton and other Earth fabrics plus the fact he could tell she was not Kryptonian at a glance due to the whole super-senses thing. It becomes a CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming when the Pre-Crisis Superman chooses to reveal he fell in love with her anyway.

!! Pre-Crisis

!! Post-Crisis

* In ''Bizarrogirl'', Kara has been depressed and unwilling to be a heroine since the demise of ''ComicBook/NewKrypton''. When she's finally back in action, Supergirl declares:

!!New 52:

!!Rebirth:

!!Others:

-->'''Silver Banshee''': Oh, whine me a vineyard, ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}. I get it. You got a rough deal, no doubt about it. And yeah, Earth can be about as much fun as a stick in the eye sometimes. But you know what? '''Everybody's''' got it rought. And there are a lot of people who have it worse than you.\\

* A few from ''Supergirl: Identity'':
** When Supergirl lampshades Pariah's SesquipedalianLoquaciousness.
--->'''Pariah''': "I am the Herald of Darkness. I am the witness to Apocalypse. I walk where the dragon's tail meets its mouth, bathed in blood... Call me Pariah."\\

** When Grace Choi earns a free punch to the Maid of Might's face, only to break her hand.
** When Supergirl and Wondergirl hug, with [[LesYay Kara's arms around Cassie's neck and Cassie's arms around Kara's waist]]. Just as it starts getting good, Ravager (Rose Wilson) [[MomentKiller shoots them with a rocket launcher as a prank]].
--->'''Wondergirl:''' "Thanks. I love you, Kara."\\

** When Supergirl returns to her apartment, Captain Boomerang Jr. asks how her day was.
--->'''Supergirl''': I met a girl tonight (Terra II).\\

* The way that Skallox, a powerful Red Lantern who has a SkullForAHead, gushes over Red Lantern Kara, even acting as her impromptu cheerleading squad when she yells at Superman.

* The MemeticMutation of Brainiac 5 creating a Supergirl robot to be a girlfriend in his sleep. It is both hilarious, creepy, and a wonderful example of [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks Silver Age]] nuttery.

* The inherent awesome silliness of Streaky the Supercat. The cat who gains super-intelligence and powers due to a magical marble.

* When Kara comes up with the name Linda Lee for her SecretIdentity, Superman wonders what is with him and those initials.
* ''[[http://www.comicbookbrain.com/_imagery/2012-11-07/action-comics-cover-324.jpg Action Comics #324 cover]]'' featuring devil Supergirl stirring a cauldron and pranking her cousin is another wonderful example of Silver Age delightful silliness.

* When the Pre-Crisis Kara Zor-El tries to visit the Post-Crisis continuity and ends up getting confused at how reality works so differently. For example, trying (and failing) to push the Earth out of the way of an asteroid versus trying to move the asteroid (which the Justice League is taking care of anyway).

* When Grace Choi earns a free punch to the Maid of Might's face, only to break her hand.
* When Supergirl and Wondergirl hug, with [[LesYay Kara's arms around Cassie's neck and Cassie's arms around Kara's waist]]. Just as it starts getting good, Ravager (Rose Wilson) [[MomentKiller shoots them with a rocket launcher as a prank]].

* In ''Comicbook/{{Justice}} #8'' a mind-controlled Kara tells Lois Lane that she doesn't know what her cousin sees in her:
-->'''Supergirl:''' I don't know what Superman sees in you, Miss Lane. And don't tell me "XRayVision". I have, too. And I don't see anything.

!!Cosmic Adventures in the 8th Grade
* From Supergirl: Cosmic Adventures in the 8th Grade: [[AbusiveParents "Mother, Father, would you please be so kind as to pass the salt?"]]
* That whole series is a goldmine for these.
-->'''Supergirl:''' Ah...hey, guys. So, uh...what's going on?\\
'''Belinda:''' I was trying to give a big, villainous speech, but apparently you're too busy being ''[[MyFutureSelfAndMe two people]]'' and having a [[CoolHorse horse]] to let me do that.
* Kara's frequent daydreams about being "Moon Supergirl."
* Issue Three
** A meteorite crashes into the school and most of the students get superpowers, but those who don't are put into a remedial class where they're taught, as normal people, their existence is meaningless. Kara gets out of the class to answer a distress call by pretending some "invisible superhero" is manhandling her to cover her flying. As Kara is taken away "to her doom," Lena proclaims "I WILL AVENGE YOU!" Bonus points for their teacher clearly not giving a shit.
** Supergirl tries to give herself the power to time travel to go back and stop the meteorite from hitting the school, but because she doesn't know what powers the fragment will give her, fears at one point she'll be turned into cheese. "I'm too delicious to live!"
* Issue Four
** When Lena discovers that Linda is Supergirl, Linda briefly envisions a scene where Lena happily becomes Supergirl's sidekick and they join forces to fight crime in "The Supermobile." Lena's real answer is less than encouraging.
--->'''Lena Thorul''': Are you INSANE?!
--->'''Supergirl''': It was just a thought...
** Streaky punches Belinda through a wall, and the following exchange occurs:
--->'''Belinda Zee''': Did the cat just punch me?!
--->'''Supergirl''' (''Chasing after Streaky''): Bad kitten! Stop being evil!
--->'''Belinda Zee''': [[FlatWhat Hunh]].
--->'''Lena Thorul''' (''Chasing after Supergirl''): REVENGE!
--->'''Belinda Zee''': Okay then. As long as we're all on the same page.
** Belinda getting mauled by Streaky, plus the fact that Supergirl and Lena either don't notice or don't care.
* Issue Five
** In the midst of Belinda's chaotic rampage in the fifth issue, she sees Supragirl (Kara's doppelganger from another timeline) and accuses of her of thinking she's better than everyone else, and imagines herself as an arrogant little angel prancing through the sky on a magic flying horse. Cue Supergirl crashing into a building on Comet the Super-Horse's back. Belinda's only response is she wasn't being serious.
--->'''Supergirl''': Ah... hey guys. So, uh... what's going on?
--->'''Belinda Zee''': I was trying to give a big villainous speech, but apparently you're too busy [[ItMakesSenseInContext being two people and having a horse to let me do that.]]
** Lena's unhinged declaration that if anyone is going to subjugate the student body, it's gonna be ''her''.
* Issue Six
** Even being turned into a statue can't stop Belinda's snarkiness. And better yet, Supergirl realizes she can hear all of Belinda's thoughts inside her head... and promptly expresses how creepy that is.
** When an insane Lena shows up again, Supergirl drops Belinda on the ground.
--->'''Superior Girl''': ''Yeah I'm'' fine ''guys. Just been turned into a blue crystal statue. Been through'' horrible emotional turmoil. ''Obviously'' not ''a priority.''
--->'''Superior Girl''': ''Jerks.''
