Marvel | Spider-Man | X-Men | NEW!! DC Comics | Batman | Superman | Wonder Woman
Supergirl needs to be featured more in team books. Her recent solos have been poor or okay, but derailed by events.
Poor Kara, her book is getting canceled again. I'm sure she'll get a relaunch in no time though.
Reading List (Super behind but reading them nonetheless):
DC: Currently figuring that out

I feel like she needs an ongoing where as odd as this may sound Superman just needs to leave her alone. I honestly think that where Superman handles things on a global and maybe even universal scale with United Planets that Kara needs an ongoing where she can be on a more communal/local level. Set her in a city of her own where she can grow as her own character for a while.
Either that or set her up on Zoe’s new Krypton type planet he’s been building.

Kara's book after it was brought back was completely mishandled. She did not get any stories for herself. Instead, all of her stories were based on other events that were happening in the DC Universe at the same time like Bendis' Superman and the Year of the Villain event.
A book about Kara as she is has and can work as long as DC makes the book about Kara.

Given the "United Planets"/President Superman element, I think it makes to split the two Kryptonians into a global external threats (and wider universe) focused elder statesman Kal-El and the global internal and national-level (usually American, but not always) threats for Kara. But YMMV.

I wonder if they're going to give her another redesign
