Summary
My Adventures with Supermanintroduces a hero too powerful for most live-actionDCprojects, including those in the DCEU and the DCU. There are various DC characters who can go toe to toe against Superman, like General Zod, Bizarro, Lobo, andcertain powerful versions of Lex Luthor. Others can be even more powerful than the Man of Steel, such as Doomsday and Darkseid. So far, the latter two villains are the two main characters who have given Superman his biggest challenges in terms of strength, both in the comics, in animated shows, and inlive-action Superman moviesand TV series.
InMy Adventures With Supermanseason 2 episode 5, Kara Zor-El arrives on Earth in search of her cousin Kal-El, who’s busy attending Metropolis'“Most Eligible Bachelor and Bachelorette"contest.

Meanwhile, Kara tries to convince Superman to join her in her efforts to conquer the Earth. When Superman refuses, a fight erupts, leaving Superman knocked out and Kara taking him away with her. Amidst this chaos, one obscure DC character makes a cameo that can be missed easily.

Who Is Chandi Gupta In DC Comics?
The “Most Elisible Bachelor and Bachelorette"contestants inMy Adventures with Supermanseason 2 episode 5 include Superman, Hank Henshaw, Silver St. Cloud, Byrna Brilyant, and Chandi Gupta. In DC Comics lore, Chandi Gupta is an Indian superhero who adopts the moniker “Maya”. At first she was only able to create a psionic bow, but later, Maya developed the ability to manifest fire, water, and pure energy, as well as the ability to enhance her own abilities to unlimited levels.Thanks to her mystical powers, Chandi Gupta could theoretically raise her strength and speed beyond Superman’s.
DC’s New Superman Show Is Giving Him X-Men ’97’s Wolverine Treatment (& I Love It)
My Adventures with Superman season 2 is underway, and the DC animated series makes a decision with the Man of Steel that X-Men ‘97 did with Wolverine.
Chandi Gupta officially became a superhero when she intervened in the Justice League of Europe’s fight with the sound-manipulating supervillain Sonar, whom she defeated effortlessly by herself. The alien villain Overmaster possessed Maya’s body and intended to destroy the whole planet with her abilities, but Maya’s former mentor, the Mahayogi, sacrificed his own life to break the spell. Soon after, the Justice League of Europe (whereSupermansupporting character Metamorpho participates) disbanded, and Chandi Gupta seemingly lost interest in superheroics.
Why Chandi Gupta Probably Won’t Feature In A Live-Action Justice League Movie
Chandi Gupta’s Mystical Abilities Are Too Overpowered And Vague
Chandi Gupta a.k.a. Maya’s power is incredibly unbalanced in comparison to her team, even more so than Superman in relation to the Justice League of America. Maya’s powers are also rather vague, as in theory, she can manifest any weapon and enhance her body in any way she wants. Given that Maya’s abilities have a mystical origin, she could also hurt Superman due to his vulnerability to magic. While James Gunn’s interest in lesser-known comic book characters could giveMy Adventures with Superman’s Chandi Gupta a chance to appear in the DCU, she would have to go through a few drastic changes to work within the same universe as the rest of DC heroes and villains.
