    Finally, Kara’s getting her book back. Great, I wonder who the creative team will be? Bennett?

    Awesome! Maybe they'll keep it rolling with the Marguerites...

    Excellent news. Title makes it sound like a digital book (or perhaps a mini). Also seems like it's trying to transition her to the Superwoman title. Overall intrigued.

    Man, I hope not. Although I do find it kind of weird they keep Supergirl but go "woman of tomorrow" instead of "girl of tomorrow."

    Usually with Kara I see "Girl of Steel" instead of "Man of Steel," at least when they don't go with "Maid of Might."

    Can we just call her superwoman, or make Karen powerwoman, and it's not a Lil weird to everyone else thst Kara is moving toward being "woman", while still younger than Karen, and Karen is still going by powergirl?

    I was wondering when Kara would get another book. Good to hear. Hopefully it's one I can get on board with.

    DC keeps doing digital first and anthology books lately, so hopefully this will just be a regular monthly book with a solid creative team. I'm glad we are finally getting another superman family book, especially with PKJ's event coming up.

    Power Girl rolls off the tongue better.

    I agree, but I also admit I've got over twenty years of Power Girl baked into my brain so there's that.

    This all comes down to the approach for me. Historically, Supergirl has almost never managed to sustain an ongoing solo title for long. I'll give it a shot, as I have for every other Supergirl title they've tried, but my hopes are not particularly high.

    Maybe, one day, someone will crack the code and figure out how to make Supergirl work as a solo character without lifting elements wholesale from Superman, but I haven't seen it done yet.

    Back in the late 90s, early 2000s, when DC was making present day changes to match the Kingdom Come future (from Metal Men combining to form Alloy, to Atom Smasher, to golden Cyborg, to Roy Harper Red Arrow, etc) I was always surprised they didn’t rename her Power Woman like in Kingdom Come.
