Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Not bad
I actually got this because I missed issue two in this series and this was the cheapest way to get it. All the other issues here were previously read. not a bad story and the art work was nice



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - buy this book
supergirl is back. this book is a fantastic, fun read. i enjoyed every page. it follows the turner batman/superman return of supergirl. being a new fan to the supergirl universe i had a great time reading this book. the art is top rate and the story is good.
plus watching an evil supergirl kick the crap out of lex and the jla is a blast. it's worth it for that alone. so go on, buy it!



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - here she is
This incarnation of Supergirl was introduced in the Batman/Superman series. And this collection is really where she (sort of) comes in to her own. She learns a bit about herself, and really, teen angst on a superhuman level, it can get interesting.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Supergirl rules!
Whether you like Superheroes romantic approach or not you can not deny Supergirl is a strong part of the Superman mithos. The fact that some incredible genius RESURRECTED her these last years brings JOY, PEACE and a overwhelming feeling of GRATITUDE to these guys. I have tons of comics of her and let me tell you the story is HARD and HEAVY, it really rocks, the art is beyond words and I got to tell you that Jeph Loeb and Ian made a remarkable team for one of the best comics I could ever purchased! I love Supergirl and maybe I am being a little partial, but believe me, if you like good comics get this one, it will trap you to follow up the story of the Girl of Steel. I salute you!



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - 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 very 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 grey 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 blue 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.
