The Ghost Boy And The Super Girl is a Danny Phantom/Justice League fanfic written by Flower princess11.

Danny Phantom is a ghost kid who juggles between saving the day and surviving school. Supergirl is an alien just trying to protect her new home from those who wish to hurt it. They live in different words and are destined to never meet but that changes when Danny accidentally winds up in the JL universe. How will Danny get back home and what happens if crosses paths with her?


This fanfic provides examples of:

  • Age Lift: Danny is 16 in this story instead of 14. This makes a potentially mutual interest between him and Kara a bit easier to swallow.
  • Arbitrary Skepticism: In spite of having ghost hunters as parents, a half ghost power, and a portal to a ghostly dimension in her basement, Jazz finds it hard to believe that aliens exist.
  • Amazon Chaser: Seeing Supergirl beat down Technus impresses Danny so much, he winds up emulating his dad in saying, "Man, that's hot." Supergirl hears this and is flattered.
  • Beauty Equals Goodness: Kara/Supergirl is a powerful superhero and Danny finds her very attractive.
  • Even Evil Has Standards: Even Skulker had to stop and question if Danny was alright, given that he was acting odd after surviving a surge of energy that made him act quicker.
  • Exact Words: Since Jazz can't make Dash understand she doesn't want to date him, she tells him she already had plans. As far as she's concerned, reading Freud's works counts.
  • Love at First Sight: Once Danny gets a good look at Supergirl, he's in awe and thinks of she's more attractive than even Paulina.
  • My Sister Is Off-Limits: So far, Superman has shown nothing but disapproval at the closeness between Danny and Kara.
  • Nice Guy: Flash comes off as the friendliest of the League when they meet Danny.
  • Outside-Context Problem: Danny has never traveled into another Earth in canon outside of an alternate timeline before.
  • Seen It All: Batman, as he and Kara tell Danny while questioning him.
    Batman: You'd be surprised what I went through before the League. You're on a space station on another Earth with this word's best heroes. If I were you, I wouldn't try to lie.
    Kara: For the record, this isn't the first time we've dealt with ghosts or the supernatural. Not to mention, Batman's seen just about everything imaginable.
  • Shipper on Deck: Kara admits to Danny that she thinks Superman and Wonder Woman could hit it off if given a chance.
  • Shout-Out:
    • The part where Kara questions Danny with the names of several heroes is very similar to the crossover between Supergirl (2015) and The Flash (2014), only it's the hero from another world, the Flash, asking that Supergirl about other heroes instead.
    • The Justice League, Superman especially, first meeting Danny and mistaking him for a villain is similar to Guy meeting the Crood family in The Croods.
      Danny: So, your cousin, he's trying to kill me.
      Kara: Yeah, but I won't let him.
    • Danny tells Technus The '80s called and "want their Autobots back". Technus says he prefers the Go-bots.
  • So Crazy, It Must Be True: Since the founding members of the League have encountered alternate worlds, they're not really surprised by Supergirl's theory that Danny's from another world. Although there are suspicions, they conclude from Danny' reactions that if he's lying, he's the only one who believes it.
  • Trapped in Another World: Danny finds out, to his utter shock, he's on the wrong Earth when Supergirl finds he doesn't know who anyone in the Justice League is.
