    SUPERGIRL #1

    Written by MICHAEL GREEN and MIKE JOHNSON

    Art and cover by MAHMUD ASRAR

    Meet Supergirl. She’s got the unpredictable behavior of a teenager, the same powers as Superman – and none of his affection for the people of Earth. So don’t piss her off!

    @The Dark Huntress: Is that the actual solicit or was that a sarcastic narrative?

    @The Dark Huntress: No need, I believe you. It's just strange if she doesn't have any affection for Earth, then what is she doing there?

    @MrUnknown Not sure. But if you've read her earlier appearances in the current DCU, she was originally sent to Earth to kill Superman. I believe that wa retconned to make way for New Krypton, though. But they could be going back to that.

    Or she could feel a lack of empathy towards them because she's a moody teenage alien.

    Any word yet on if this is a merged character of Supergirl/ Powergirl?  I heard they may be combined after the reboot.

    @thegreatfour: lol I like this idea. 
    @The Dark Huntress: Was that when she was reintroduced (sort of?) with the Superman/Batman series? Hmm I wonder if Superman and Supergirl would even be cousins now? Superman himself looks like a teen maybe this is setting them up to be a pair. Ok I will stop before I leave some distaste but there is so much we don't know so I guess it could happen right?

    @Green Skin I do NOT like that idea.

    @MrUnknown Yep. It was the cleverly titled Supergirl arc ;)

    Welllllll. Did kind of happen in an arc. So it's not entirely out of the realm of possibility, although it would incite outrage, even if the revamped versions weren't related.

    @The Dark Huntress:  I just knew because of the movie, otherwise I wouldn't have.
    When did the relationship thing ever happen? I'm pretty sure anyone other than Lois with Superman will incite rage. But if any character can cause the maximum damage it's bound to be Supergirl because most people will still remember them to be related and not comparable in age. I did like her teaming up with Jimmy Olsen in the cartoon so maybe they can use that in the stories, but then again I pretty much like everything Dini does. Jimmy could also be the one for pissing of Supergirl at random times. I think that could make for a fun read.

    @MrUnknown: It was during the Candor story arc and technically it was Ultraman, not Superman. Still weird, though.

    Agreed with you on Dini and the Jimmy angle.

    @The Dark Huntress: Because I thought it would just be some kind of nightmare writing. I don't think of Superman as the prime suspect for cheating on his wife or committing incest. Glad you agree on the other points since you are the Supergirl follower; I'm just a sometimes ;)

    The new costume looks good IMO, but after looking at it in some depth it looks like a cross between Power Girl and Supergirl, both in terms of style and body design. This is fine for Supergirl because when she is grown up she is suppose to look like 
    Power Girl. Some rumors online (and they are only rumors at this point) say there will be no more Power Girl and Supergirl will be the only Kara Zor-El. I for one hope that is not true but  we will have to wait and see.

    i hope they are that would be nice to leave space for Kara to grow. 
     
    The only reason i would want Karren Star to stick around is if they let Supergirl grow up i would like to see how different they actually become.

    i enjoy the new supergirl comic..seeing her grow..trying to understand how to care for the people ,doing the right thing. and trying to have a life.. but now..anti human supergirl? so what going to make her hate..on the humans now?  hm like degraaf said.. they will show a new way of her growing about how to care again..   I am going to miss how they were around issue 60..to me it feel that supergirl was pushing more of the training she gain from bruce. with the whole setting up teams and having plans over plans. how she pick the team and how she had miss matrain fake the mind control

    Looks like DC is rolling back almost all character development they've ever done with the character.

    I like this version of Supergirl.  I saw it in another forum post.  I think its more innocent and yet she'll still kick some ass.  I have a very bad feeling that they are going to make Supergirl more of a villian.  Its stupid because I feel like we've already heard this story.  Superman has to teach her how to find compassion for humanity blah blah blah.  I think a storyline more of Supergirl in a "Smallville" like setting would be really interesting.  A 16 year old girl dealing with the powers of Superman while still trying to be a cheerleader, debate champion, class president and Superhero.  It could be a neat way to mimic and yet develop the character more.  Maybe she is the editor and chief of the high school blog.  Any way I think this is going to be cool if the story is done right, and chances may be that they wont.
