Kara Zor-El/Supergirl Appreciation 2022

[Vordan]

I think Nick Spencer introduced a new dude in like his single issue of Kara in college before her whole book ended .

Other than Brainiac 5, and the idea of her and Lena Luthor getting together, I’ve never really cared all that much about Kara’s romantic life. Her and Dick would be cute together, and I also shipped her and Kenan together at one point.

It's hard to make compelling love interests these days.

Her and Dick would be cute together

Especially after World's Finest #2 haha

I think that's a reflection of the way the publishers, and not the media itself though. Stability? what's that? continuity resets wreck story telling. It's killed DC.

Dick Grayson already has too many love interests.

That's Mae's costume, though. Not Kara's.

That’s her Rebirth look, it’s what she’s had for a while now:

Well, it's a bit of both. (And she actually hasn't used the early Rebirth costume since spring 2018. It was replaced in the middle of issue #21 with the solar-storing costume that Jorge Jimenez designed, and which has gone through a number of changes since.)

In this figure, the S insignia shape and the under-the-knee boots with the cutouts is both Mae and Linda Danvers (early Earth Angel version, before adopting the DCAU Kara In-Ze costume). The early Rebirth boots as seen here go up over the knees, surely based on the CW-TV Melissa Benoist costume.

The figure's skirt length is Mae/Linda. That early Rebirth skirt is the longest Supergirl has ever worn - longer than Silver Age, and longer than Melissa Benoist.

The stitching on the top, though, is from early Rebirth, and I think that's probably the only Rebirth element in this statue.

The Rebirth run borrowed several elements from the show - National City, CatCo, the Kara Danvers secret identity (the show created that - it had always been Linda Danvers in the comics, and when she used her real first name instead she used a different last name) and her DEO connection. Though they didn't age her up, so she also went to school! It's no surprise that the costume was similar to the TV show's.

lol, so this is the first time Dick wears pants as Robin, and isn't a retcon of his classic 1940-1984 look?

Also, haha, Kara asks if he was raised at a circus. He was!

As both a Superman & Batman fan . I really enjoyed this issue a lot !!! Mark Waid still has a lot left to write about. :-)
Also really cool to see Dick/Robin interacting with Kara . Actually I don't remember the two of them being around each other that much.

Kara is one of those characters who doesn't need a romantic life. Give her a consistent supporting cast of close knit friends and she'll thrive.
