For Supergirl, it's not easy growing up the most powerful teenager in the world. But as she tries desperately to carve out a place for herself on Earth, the Teen of Steel struggles with the mysteries of her past on Krypton and her potential as one of Earth's mightiest heroes.
Promising a dying boy to use her spectacular powers for the practical purpose of curing his terminal illness, Supergirl upsets the universe's rules of life and death in the service of her impossible quest and may have to face off with Superman and Batman to accomplish it. Should heroes of unfathomable power attempt to change humanity? Or are their offers of help more harmful than good?
Collects Supergirl 28-33.

This set of stories showcases Drew Johnson's artwork. Wonderful prologue for the New Krypton story line.

Sorry, only 2 star is because I haven't bought this book { It has to get something just from the product description }& the 1 review of it said nothing to help me decide to buy it. There are only a few copies left & no one has thougth of putting up a review? I have recently got back into collecting in a serious way after over 10 years of not having the pleasure to keep track of the comic book world. I live over 100 miles from any real comic shop & have to rely on the internet to make my choices. So could every one who has read this please when you see that there is no helpful comments left for any comic superheroe book, please take a few minutes & help us, that are comic book store challanged to find out what you thought of what you bought.. I think alot of us comic book, so called nerdy freaks that are into the whole super heroe world has it in them to be a wonderful writer to explain what they thought of the product they spent their hard earned money on. I mean no disrespect to the person who did write the short review, but I count on you !! The world of collectors to help those of us that rely on others to make our choices, I started reading comics back around 1970 when I grew up in NYC where there is a newsstand every 50 ft. that sells comics. But having moved to the mid-middle-west has made my choice to get back into the comic world very hard to keep up on whats really good. To many are into so serious books that they think if they admit to liking the mainstream pulp type books of the past, they will be looked down apound by others who are closet heroe worshipors themselves. Please excuse any misspelled words, it's after 4:30 am & I have had a bad week with my health, so the meds I take for my pain & my weak heart tends to blur my eyes & writing sometimes. But I think I have got my request out to every one who reads this that hopefully will want to help others like myself. It can be hard having to rely all the time on online comic book store sellers who have brick 'n' mortor stores & also sell online to others like me that have no other option, plus to many just want to make that sale & not get into to many serious talks about what they are selling you/me/us. I sincerly thank you for your time. Live long & prosper...Excellcior!!

Puckett & Johnson should have been the permanent creative team.
Excellent writing. This is not the cheese cake comic that Supergirl started as with the Michael Turner relaunch. Puckett writes Kara as a real person, specifically a young person (simple>inquisitive>mature). Johnson's art is perfect, feminine but not pin-up. There are tons of little details that make her character realistic, a single panel where she is tying her hair back into a ponytail before flying in for an attack, a single panel of disappointment when Superman tells her that he stopped a bad guy that she had been searching for after hours (a bad guy that previously got away from her).
My favorites moment is an innocent but embarrassing Q&A session she has with a living galaxy villain.
I suppose this comic is not for the traditional superhero fan, certainly not the traditional female super hero fan, but maybe that's why I like it so much.
If you don't like this then go buy Witchblade.

What an obnoxious comment by a previous reviewer: "If you don't like the repressed version of Supergirl, go read Witchblade." If he doesn't like previous incarnations of Supergirl or Superheroines, maybe he should stick to 50's TV.
Puckett's depiction of SUpergirl was awful. This felt like ten issues of insults aimed at Supergirl, Supergirl fans, blondes, women, teenage girls, etc. His Supergirl failed at every single thing she tried. She broke people's arms while attempting to save them. Average citizens considered her Superman's inferior and insulted her. She couldn't save people from burning buildings, couldn't fight bad guys, and did more harm than good whenever she attempted anything. Her dialogue always made her sound like a ditz. Wonder Woman told her she needed to be on a shorter leash and Superman had to fly down and fix all of her mistakes. She cried. She never spoke up for herself. When insulted, she looked at her feet and said "I'm sorry." The message of this series seemed to be that a Supergirl isn't good enough or smart enough, you need a man to do the job.

Supergirl: Way of the World
Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on July 22, 2009
The most recent incarnation of Supergirl strikes me as posing problems for DC. Her character does not seem to be fully established & I still have the original heroine from the '60s in mind when I read her. However, I still retain an affection for Supergirl, & this was carefully crafted & wittily written. The premise seemed rather flimsy, but it was ultimately dealt with well. The Art was exquisite.
