I really enjoyed this comic! I really like the Supergirl TV show and wasn't sure what to expect from this new comic. The comic held to the "facts" from the show like back story, powers, character names/personalities etc., but had a storyline that was unique to the comic.

You could easily read the comic without seeing the show and still understand everything. You can also have followed the show and still be entertained and surprised by the comic.

I haven't found any of the older Supergirl comics, but I'm going to see if there are any available digitally. There is a rumor that more of the contemporary comics will come out, but I haven't seen anything yet. I would love to read more!

Definitely recommend if you're a fan of the show--especially if, like me, you always crave more Danvers sisters moments.

Also Cat Grant. I miss you, Cat Grant.

honestly this is not what I read but Goodreads took away the option to manually add books so this was close enough for logging purposes.

what I actually read, the supercorp omnibus 2022, had a lot of great artworks from fanartists I hadn't seen before, was made with a lot of love, and had some pretty good fics (not all to my taste or what I think of as "collection quality," but I'm picky and have read a lot)

I had some fun reading this. I prefer the parts where they don't use the actors' faces [except the cover] as part of the comics. Luckily there are only a couple of times when they do that.

  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? N/A
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? N/A
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

This is a strong collection of Supergirl stories. (I wish I liked the show this much!) It is clearly set in the TV universe but improves on it by focusing on Supergirl herself while downplaying the DEO and supporting cast. It makes for a much more balanced story. Hopefully this team will do a second volume.

We discussed the early days of the TV show that inspired this volume over on Comic Book Coffee Break: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YW-r_gb8e98&t=1923s
