Powers[]
- Kryptonian Physiology
Weaknesses[]
- Kryptonite: Kryptonite is a green ore form of a radioactive element from Ursa's home planet of Krypton; in it's gassy form it can temporarily suppress her superhuman physical attributes, making her equivalent to that of a normal human, in it's natural form, kryptonite could cause Ursa somewhat fever-like, including nausea, weakness, dizziness, vertigo, fatigue, immense amounts of pain and loss (or near loss) of consciousness. Wounds inflicted on Ursa by kryptonite do not disappear when it leaves her presence, and only direct exposure to sunlight can instantly allow Ursa to recover completely from it's damaging effects and these otherwise incurable wounds. Ursa never got exposed to Kryptonite.
- Nuclear Energy: If exposed to nuclear energy of any kind, Ursa would get nauseous and weak for a short period of time. Ursa never got exposed to nuclear energy of any kind.
- Lead: Even with Ursa's X-ray vision; she cannot see through lead.
- Beings of Exceptional Powers: Only super-powered individuals who are equal or superior to Ursa's level of power, can bypass her durability; as they can potentially injure or even kill her. Superman was capable of bypassing Ursa's durability, due to also being Kryptonian.

Trivia[]
- Ursa was almost undoubtedly based on the character of Faora from the Pre-Crisis Superman comics. She was a Phantom Zone villain who first appeared in Action Comics #471 (May, 1977). Like Ursa, she hates males and is in fact sentenced to the Phantom Zone for "wantonly causing the death of 23 Kryptonian men in her own male concentration camp". Since she is from Krypton it is most likely she is vulnerable to Kryptonite.
