Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Moment of the Week 1/23/08 - in which I have naughty thoughts about Ed Brubaker
Posts
That was a couple of months ago (I was wrong btw, Puckett has only released three issues), but yeah, the second issue ended that storyline and then re-established her origin (where Zor-El wasn't completely insane). Third issue has her dealing with that and then duking it out with Reactron. It's been pretty good, reminds me a bit of his Batgirl run.
And yeah she still looks pretty similar to Wonder Girl but what can ya do? Give one of them a haircut?
The only good part was the first couple pages where Batman pranks her with a leadbox present. The rest was nonsensical at best.
That issue was a surrelist mastepiece.
Because 9% think it's too high, and shouldn't be cut! 9% of respondents could not fully
get their arms around the question. There should be another box you can check for, "I
have utterly no idea what you're talking about. Please, God, don't ask for my input."
Wait... 15 pages of her flying through space? Like, panels and panels of Supergirl in space? For 15 pages? There must have been something?!?
Not really, no.
OK, so issue 1 of this story starts with the lead box thing, then a SC crossover gets going and the GLs send Kara into space to track some ship. Many pages of her tracking it silently through a space-battle. She messes up, gets ported back home, tells everyone she fucked up, Clark looks all forlorn, the lanterns seem pissed off. Kara goes home, is about to take a shower, has an idea, re-opens portal to space (did the Green lanterns not take the portal-ma-bob thing back?)... end of comic.
Next issue starts with her in her bathroom, about to leave, taking a massive breath... Clark comes in, she explains her idea of using her telescopic vision and x-ray vision at the same time, Clark is all "wow, that's amazing. Personally I found it using lensed light a few hours ago, but your idea was also good..." Then he uses some big green ring-construct telescope a kindly GL built to show her Krypton (or possibly Argos, I forget) from before it was destroyed.
Anally.
The best part is when they're back in her flat and she says, totally out of nowhere, something about how his mother used to sing to him and he's all "What the fuck are you babbling about now"
Supergirl was actually a pretty fun character in Brave and the Bold, though.
