DC's Supergirl Merch Fails Jedi Check: Star Wars Character Prompts Removal

DC Comics just yanked a high-priced Supergirl movie metal print from its official store, and the reason is classic. Turns out, one of the "alien passengers" depicted wasn't from the DC universe at all. It was Lexo Sooger, a character seen in deleted scenes from Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Talk about a crossover nobody asked for!

The $119.95 print was by acclaimed artist Bilquis Evely, known for her work on Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, which the upcoming movie is based on. Described as "Across the Galaxy," it featured Kara, Ruthye, and various aliens. It's a significant IP blunder: a Lucasfilm/Disney character popping up in official Warner Bros/DC merchandise. The print disappeared swiftly from the DC store.

While likely an honest mistake perhaps someone confused Lexo Sooger with another Supergirl alien it's a stark reminder of the complexities in media production. On the bright side, the presence of other unique alien designs might just hint at what we'll see in the eagerly awaited Supergirl film. Just don't expect any accidental Jedi cameos.
