Adventures of Supergirl #7 is a chapter in the digital-first series Adventures of Supergirl (Volume 1 (Digital)) with a cover date of April, 2016.
Synopsis for "The Next Dream"
Supergirl fights her way through different dream scenarios conjured by her enemy. In one dream she is fighting the hordes of Nightflame in the Innerverse.[1] In another dream she is a teenager defending the Earth against thousands of Kryptonians together with her cousin.[2] In another dream she's an angel with fire wings fighting monsters. In another dream she defends Chicago from giant robots in the year 2965. In other dreams she fights versions of herself like a Red Lantern Supergirl[3] or a t-shirt-wearing Kara.
Every time Supergirl catches a glimpse of her real enemy, though, her assailant changes the dreamscape and forces her through another battle. Kara never stops fighting and hunting her down, though, and after hundreds of dreams, Supergirl rips through one final barrier and breaks through her enemy's mental barriers.
Her psychic aggressor calls herself Psi, dream mistress of Fort Rozz, and claims Supergirl is a monster who must be put to sleep forever. Psi tries to throw Supergirl back into her head and into another dream where she is Kara Starikov fighting in World War II. Supergirl breaks free and confronts Psi again.
Psi reveals she was a Fort Roz psychic guard whose job was to watch and keep dangerous criminals asleep, but whose physical body was destroyed when Fort Rozz crashed into Earth. Psi empathized with Rampage and accuses Supergirl and her sister Alex of killing Rampage and her sister. Kara argues she honestly tried to save Rampage and dares Psi to really look into her mind.
Psi learns the truth and wonders if Facet lied to them all. Supergirl wants to Psi tell her more, but Psi decides to release her under the condition that Kara promises to help her.
Kara promises to do so, and she finally wakes up. Kara calls Alex to tell her sister they have a new mission.
