Not bad at all

If you take this supergirl as the NEW supergirl, the storyline would be fine. I think it is normal to be confused and uncertain. This book is not as bad as what some people commented. I like the art and the plot, it is unexpected and my favorite part of it was the fight with wonder girl and the part where she found out the truth to all her problems. It is enjoyable and are one of my favorites. I recommend this book to people who are interested in supergirl. Some may find it bad, but I enjoyed it a lot. in conclusion, I think it depends on the person's impression and point of view on supergirl. If you like it, enjoy. Plus, I recommend it more for teenagers.

The Maid of Might Takes Flight

'Supergirl: Power' (or as I like to call it 'Kara vs. DCU') is the immediate follow up to the 'Supergirl' story arc in the 'Superman/Batman' series. It documents Kara Zor-El's first adventures as The Girl of Steel and raises a lot of questions about the true motives of her arrival here on earth. 'Power' collects issue #19 of 'Superman/Batman' and issues 1-5 of the regular 'Supergirl' series. Someone is keeping tabs on Kara, and it isn't Batman. Whoever it is has been setting up disasters around the world to 'test' the new kryptonians abilities. These 'tests' include blowing up the Hoover Dam, sending terrorists to the Eiffel Tower, and shooting down Air Force One. After dealing with Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, and Clayface, Kara goes looking for someone she can talk to, someone to be a friend, someone who can answer all of her questions. Her travels bring her in contact with the Justice Society of America, Teen Titans, Outsiders, and even the League. They all confirm her suspicions; there is something dark inside her. Kara discovers that the person who has been spying on her is non-other then Lex Luthor. After a little showdown she is exposed to black kryptonite and has a 'splitting of the minds' so to speak. Kara has to figure out who she really is, was she a good girl gone bad? Was she always evil? Or is blue, yellow, and red her true colors after all? The reason I called this arc 'Kara vs. DCU' at the beginning of this review was because it basically is. Kara (in one form or another) takes on all of the major hero's in the DC Universe. She fights Power Girl, Superboy, Wondergirl, Raven, The Outsiders (minus Nightwing), The Justice League, Wonderwoman, Batman, and finally Superman himself. She even occupies a Green Lantern power ring for a short while. I loved this arc, it wasn't as good as 'Superman/Batman: Supergirl' but it was still good enough to earn a five star rating from me. The art is brilliant and the story is as good as you can expect coming from a literary genius such as Jeph Loeb. I do however suggest reading 'Superman/Batman: Public Enemies' and 'Superman/Batman: Supergirl' first. I mean, you don't really have to, Loeb provides a quick recap of how Kara Zor-El came to be on earth, but everything will feel a lot more complete if you've read the arcs leading up to this series first.

Great magazine!!

This is a great item! Drawings are excellent. Worth to have it in your collection.!

SUPERGIRL IS BACK!

Superman cousin is back. Kara Zor-El (Supergirl) This time she is the real deal. Not like the other fake Supergirls that were out before. This book has lots of action in it. Supergirl and then a copy, takes on: Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, JSA, Superboy, Teen Titans, the Outsiders, Justice League of America, a copy of herself, Batman, Superman, WonderWoman,and Lex. In this book: Superman/Batman #19, Supergirl #1-5. If you want to see how she comes back to DC Comics get: Superman/Batman:Supergirl vol.2. #8-13. Supergirl is a top DC sales comic book. Kara Zor-El is back for good!
