Det finns inga diskussioner på LibraryThing om den här boken. *Thank you to NetGalley, The Publishers, the illustrator and Author for letting me read this for a fair and unbiased review* I am not usually a DC comic reader (No idea why), but I wanted to branch out and why not branch out with Supergirl? Supergirl: Being Super tells the origin of super girl before she dons her cape. We find out how she came to earth though flashbacks in her memories and we also gain some insight to her life on the farm that she grew up on. This very much seems a coming of age comic that involves friendship, death, trust and betrayal. The Graphics/ Artwork The artwork by Jones was great. Every character had such a individualized look to them that made them standout, even the characters in the background. I loved the use of colors for each scene that made things pop. I just really liked it, will look for more of Jones work. The Story Like I said before this seems like a coming of age story, which surprisingly did not take away from the overall arc. I did see the betrayal coming, but I honestly was not sure that it was meant to be a surprise. If it was then it was a bit easy to see through. Overall I did enjoy the story and I really want to see how it develops in the next arc, especially after the ending Our Heroine Kara is very much a teenage girl, she just happens to have super powers. This is how she is portrayed, and it does not let you forget. This is a good thing. It shows her struggle to deal with these two clashing traits and how it affects the relationships she has around her. I like the way that Tamaki handled it and made Kara seem very real. Overall Overall it was a pretty great Origin arc and it did end in a way that made me want to continue reading about KAra's journey in to becoming Supergirl.

I was never really interested in Superman, and my only real experience with Supergirl was the movie from 1984 (though I was OBSESSED with it in first grade). I was wondering whether or not I'd really dig this beyond its having two of my favorite creators. But the wonderteam of Tamaki and Jones makes this the best new superhero story arc I've read since Ms. Marvel. There's a real story here. The art is striking. I need the next volume to come out NOW.

Kara is very much a teenage girl, she just happens to have super powers. This is how she is portrayed, and it does not let you forget. This is a good thing.
