A really fun spin off of the TV show. Typically these kind of things feel like cash ins with minimal effort, but that was not the case here. Gates is one of the best Supergirl writers and he's paired with great artists for each arc. Fans of the show will definitely dig this, but I think it stands well enough on it's own that people who are just fans of Supergirl in general will enjoy it as well.

I received a free copy from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

3.5*

This was a really fun comic book. I enjoy the character of Supergirl a lot, even though I still haven't checked the TV show out (I know, shame on me). The only comic solely focusing on her that I had previously read I had liked just fine, but didn't find amazing. This one was a little better, but still didn't blow me away.

The art is typical comic book style art and the stories are fairly typical for superhero arcs as well. I enjoyed them, but didn't find them to be groundbreakingly different or unique. If you like Supergirl, I think this comic is definitely worth checking out.

The artwork was all over the place, but this was a solid Supergirl story.

Loved this! Loved the artwork, the story, and I especially loved getting to see inside Kara's mind. Alex was amazing as usual!
I actually almost cried towards the end (which was very emotional). Need I say more?

It was nice seeing how these characters were interpreted from screen into comic form, and I'm happy to say that I enjoyed this as much as the TV show, which I'm currently watching for the fourth time (I'm not even slightly ashamed of admitting it
