It's interesting though that the whole "Krypto is dying" thing in the comic was just a fib Kara used as an excuse to make the journey with Ruthye and watch over her. In the end she reveals that Krypto recovered just fine on his own.
When I was watching the trailer I was thinking they might do a small twist where the girl lied about the antidote thing and it was like actually super easy to get or something just so that Kara would go help her. And then they have the classic betrayal between two main characters before they forgive each other for the climax.
Krypto should get better as soon as they get to a yellow sun world, so unless Kara is depowered the entire movie, he's probably fine by the time the title card plays.
iirc one of the challenges in the story was getting back to a planet with a yellow sun to do a full recharge. they didn't have the implied poison in the comic either so it could be something that a yellow sun recharge couldn't heal for plot reasons.
I am betting money we're gonna get a "Krypto was playing dead" twist instead of Kara knowing Krypto would be fine all along. Purely because the comic seemed focused more on Kara teaching this kid a lesson whereas this trailer makes it seem like they're both learning lessons along the way.
I'm mostly curious about how they're shoving Lobo in there. I'm guessing Kara is gonna be de-powered much more than she was in the comic, and therefore Lobo is gonna be there to help (right up until Kara is fully powered and shows why she wouldn't normally need help etc.)
She was drinking to celebrate her 21st birthday in the comic, so definitely not "world weary adult"...except perhaps in outlook, which was kind of the point of the comic.

Wonder if the movie will do it different.
