Cool cover. Very Mignola.
This series has been one of my favorites of the New 52. I was never a Supergirl fan, but Green & Johnson created a Kara I can get behind.
Still giving Nelson a chance, but you can’t deny Asrar!
I really loved issue 20 – it was funny – but issue 21 went back to blandness again. I was hoping this was going to be the start of a great run but maybe it was just beginner’s luck.
Only DC title I still read, love it.
Last ish was ok. Lots of great elements and I love the world building. I do feel like I miss her relationship with her new friends. H’el took that away from the title and just hasn’t gotten it back.
This and Earth 2 are the only DC books I still pick up regardless of how big the week is. Asrar’s art alone has been reason enough for me.
So Mahmud Asrar confirmed that issue #20 was his last issue, so that’s a bummer.
But when you think about it…18 out of 21 issues drawn by him is a quite a feat for any artist these days, much less one done in the ever-increasingly hostile environment of the new 52. That right there makes Supergirl one of the standout titles of the new 52, along with Wonder Woman and All-Star Western.
I do wonder if Diogenes Neves is the permanent replacement, or just filling in. I’ve enjoyed his run, as while his style is not aping Asrar, it is complimentary to it. A nice transition.
That being said, I’m definitely ready for a new story that doesn’t deal with rebuilding Krypton. Hopefully they have one in the works sooner or later.
