Her characterization seems to remain consistent throughout the term of a writer, then will change with a new writer who wants to do something different or has a different “vision”. The same thing...
Sometimes it seems like for the last couple of years she is whomever and looks like whatever the creative team wants for the story they’re telling.
Looks like it wasn’t debt, it was market cap in terms of net value of its total assets.

I agree, angry Kara isn’t terribly interesting to me unless there’s a good story reason other than yet another mind control or the “teenage girls are just like that” canard (see the Will Moss quote.)...
Gates has said he was planning on continuing character development along the lines had been taking her during his run that got him canned off the book. Dan wanted angry resentful teen Supergirl. As...
If DC needs to move on from things we didn’t find out much about at SDCC then there’s a lot of moving on in store.
Pretty much. The silver age had a lot of Superman support character interaction but seemed to make an extra effort to keep Kara and Kal-El separate, to the point of Superman coming across as uncaring...
I’ll say I’m in the “not sidekick” camp. DC has worked very hard over the years at keeping Superman a solo independent hero unless he’s on a team, to the point where the hoops they jump through to...
It does make it sound like it’s just a powerhouse “good girl” character slot that could be filled with anyone with those generic traits.
I started during the early Silver Age, and alive or dead I prefer consistency. What I don’t want is an “Everthing happened!” situation like with so much else right now where they become Schrödinger’s...
Kara seems to have whatever age, personality, and past that’s convenient for the story the current writer is telling. She’s become a poster child for continuity being irrelevant when “everything...
It is, the artist Sarah Leuver said as much on Twitter.
The more I hear the more I’m glad 5G never happened.

Kara’s lack of interaction with most DC characters has been a defining feature in the post Flashpoint New52-verse. When King says DC doesn’t know what to do with her my first thought is “friends,...
It’s interesting how a lot of the new versions of the Super uniforms have been going with red shoulders. Is Bronze age Supergirl the first take on that?
I think creators won’t say they’ve pitched an idea before it’s been accepted/rejected because it might be interpreted as getting fans to put pressure on the company (nobody likes to be brigaded by...
Action comics #270, Kara’s 16th birthday

I think DC knows what they want to do with Supergirl, they just haven’t figured out how to make the angry, bitter version they want to publish something that sells. They’re hoping King’s cross...
She had reached college age just before Flashpoint (the last arc by Kelly Sue DeConnick took place at a college) but the only time since then an Earth school has been mentioned was during the Orlando...
The comics in the Silver and Bronze age slowly aged her. She graduated from high school in Action #318 (1964), then from college in Adventure #406 (1971), then had her moving through a series of jobs...
Most comics understand that you need a consistent setting, sense of place, and supporting characters. Superman has Metropolis and Lois, Jimmy, Perry, and many more. Batman has Gotham, the Batcave,...
I’ve also heard that it wasn’t just the total dollars that was causing heart-burn at WB, but the fact that BvS flatlined at the box office....
Nice to hear, I might add this back to my pulls now that the BWL crossover is finished.
I really feel for her, she gets to write the book and the first thing she has to do is shepherd yet another Dark Supergirl crossover take. You’d think DC would be getting tired of that one by now.
