The Supergirl comic has been something of a mix in recent months.Some issues are quite good, while others are merely average. But to its credit, I haven't seen an issue in a while that was outright bad.
This issue manages to be both average and quite good in the same issue. On the good side, Supergirl gets a chance to show her true character as she faces off against the man who killed her father. On the bad side, she survives a fall by a rather improbable method, and (more importantly) we finally get a peek behind the mask of Superwoman.
Since that mystery has been driving the recent storyline, it's unfortunate that it's not more of a surprise. Our reaction should be one of shock, not "Who is that character again?"
The art has been very good indeed, and Jamal Igle and Jon Sibal continue their strong run on this title.
It's good to see the Supergirl comic being so much fun to read. Now if the creative team can push it up one more notch...
Grade: B-
