U.S presidential candidate Jeb Bush was asked about his favorite Marvel character during a press interview for "The Libre Initiative" in Las Vegas on Wednesday night. However, the 62-year old clearly proved that he is not a fan of Marvel comic book superheroes after he expressed his interest in Supergirl.

Supergirl is Kal-El or Superman's cousin, so that makes her a DC character being Superman is also a DC superhero. However, Bush clearly had no idea about Supergirl being not with Marvel when he said he likes Kara Zol-El or Kara Danvers, better known as Supergirl.

"I saw that 'Supergirl' is on TV. I saw it when I was working out this morning. There's an ad promoting 'Supergirl,'" Bush is heard answering in the video below.

Bush didn't stop there and continued to explain why he preferred the DC character. He said something that may be considered a little "off" for a political interview. The former governor of Florida commented on how Supergirl, portrayed by former "Glee" star Melissa Benoist, looks in her costume.

"She looked kind of -- she looked pretty hot. I don't know what channel it's on, but I'm looking forward to that," he is heard explaining in the video.

Realizing that he had said something off-course and after hearing the audience laugh, Bush then jokingly said that his comments about Supergirl would surely make the news.

Aside from Supergirl, Bush had initially picked out another superhero that was also not with Marvel. He explained how he prefers the "old school" comic book characters and mentioned Bruce Wayne's superhero alter-ego Batman.

"I don't know, I'm kinda old school. I like the old school guys like Batman, a little dark these days," Bush told the interviewer, who CNN identified as Daniel Graza, executive director of "The Libre Initiative."

Benoist had previously shared her first reaction when she put on Supergirl's costume, which was created by Colleen Atwood for the CBS show. In an interview with E! News, the 27-year-old explained how the red and blue suit instantly changed her. It reportedly made her feel somewhat powerful just like her comic book character.

"I had just had this injury so I had this eye patch on. It was kind of embarrassing. But the second I put it on, something shifts inside of me. It's kind of impossible not to feel strength and empowerment and positivity and hope. It really is pretty surreal," she said.
