Supergirl

  • Title: Supergirl (2026)
  • IMDb: link

Milly Alcock returns to reprise her role of Kara Zor-El introduced at the end of Superman. Any conversation of director Craig Gillespie‘s film must start with Alcock whose journey as the lost daughter of Krypton (cursed to remember a planet Kal-El never knew) provides the backbone of the film. Part origin story, part coming-of-age film and growing into who you were meant to become, Supergirl works fairly well when Alcock is on-screen (and less so when she’s not).

Supergirl #3

I finally figured out what this comic reminds me of. With it’s small town setting and problems that can ultimately be solved with kind words and a hug, this run of Supergirl reminds me of Archie comics (in a good way). Rebranded “Phonygirl,” Supergirl continues to try and win back the inhabitants of Midvale and free them from machinations of the Kandorian Lesla-Lar whose obsession with Kara has led her to try and take over her life. Unable to keep playing hero, Lesla-Lar then turns to villain.

Supergirl #1

A new volume of Supergirl begins here with an issue that does a pretty good job on hitting on several aspects of Kara and letting us know what’s going to be covered/included in the current version. Along with appearances by both Krypto and Streaky, Supergirl #1 also gives us Supergirl (very quickly) stopping threats in both Metropolis by defeating Princess Shark and in Kandor dealing with Lar-On on a rampage before returning to Midvale to discover something quite bizarre is going on.

Justice League Unlimited #5

Justice League Unlimited #5, which features several heroes including Flash, Green Lantern, Impulse, Star Sapphire, Wonder Woman, and Supergirl all disappearing and finding themselves fighting threats in some weird nightmarish dimension, is really a lead up to the issue’s final panel (which, oddly enough, is given away on the comic’s cover?).
