- “Because Kara needed to go, Director Chase. We needed to support her. You tasked us with being her parents. I thought we were doing our job.”
- ―Jeremiah Danvers to Director Chase
Jeremiah Danvers is a (former) Agent of the Department of Extranormal Operations and a supporting character in Supergirl. He is the adoptive father of Kara Danvers and the husband of Eliza Danvers. Originally called Fred Danvers, Jeremiah and his wife were assigned as Kara's handlers and "parents" by the D.E.O to help Kara adjust to Earth. Overtime, however, the Danvers grew to see Kara as if she were their own child and supported her career as a vigilante, like her cousin, Superman.
Jeremiah Danvers is a reinvention of Fred Danvers from the original continuity and a character created for the Supergirl television series, created by Greg Berlanti, Ali Adler, and Andrew Kreisberg.
