* 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) and scary (imagine they--two Earth-1 Kryptonians--decide to fight seriously. They would tear the planet apart).
* Lesla-Lar's talents included body-swapping, and she was disintegrated on-panel in her second appearance. Her final appearance had her mental energy dispersed on the astral plane, killing her for good.
* ''Superman's Girlfriend Lois Lane'' #55 epitomizes why you never, ever, let Krypts near from Red-Kryptonite. Supergirl hypnotizes her cousin into making whatever she wants, locks ComicBook/LoisLane up in a coffin and is going to freeze her into suspended animation for a thousand years. Luckily that's when Kara snapped out of K-induced craziness... but notice if a Kryptonian goes insane and wants to bury you alive you can't outrun them, overpower them or doing anything, really.
* ''Adventure Comics'' #408 -titled "The Face At The Window"- is a bona fide ghost story: an old mansion owned by a trigger-happy old man who hates visitors, a mysterious little girl wandering over the halls in the dark and requesting to help her find her missing parents, and corpses murdered and hidden in the basement by the house-owner several decades ago.

* In some post-Crisis stories, several characters met some kind of spirit called "Kara". [[ComicBook/{{Batgirl}} Barbara Gordon]] herself [[http://comicboxcommentary.blogspot.com.es/2015/10/supergirl-sighting-post-crisis.html made an imaginary friend called Supergirl]]. This would imply the original Kara Zor-El's spirit got stuck on the post-Crisis Earth, but she was reduced to a ghost who wandered the Earth after losing everyone she loved, being unable to communicate with people--with exceptions--and had been forgotten by the universe she saved.
* Kara spent thirty years in suspended animation, curled-up in a tiny pod and trapped in Kryptonite which hurt her and poisoned her mind.

* We actually get to see what the Phantom Zone looks like here. It's a bleak, rocky wasteland with a greenish-black sky and pits of slime dotted across the landscape. The only possible way to get out is beyond the Maelstrom, a massive vortex that circles an endlessly swirling blood-red void.

* S'tanicule Gyrstress -the Post-Crisis Satan Girl- was accidentally drawn to Earth by Brainiac 5. As soon as she arrrived, she possessed nearly all Legionnaires, enslaved the entire planet in days by spreading her "Crimson Plague" on the air, and began building a dimensional portal inside her citadel to call all of her people to the normal universe. Supergirl and Brainiac 5 almost got killed off when they fought her, and had to resort to time-travel to stop her.

-->'''Kara:''' Kryptonyte. a radioactive element lethal to the touch. Just being close to it — like I'm being held now — can be fatal. I'm screaming, but no sound comes out. I'm crying, but there are no tears. My skin is burning off, but there are no flames. All there is... All I am now... is the pain.
