A wonderful DC YA graphic novel by Mariko Tamaki. Each of these, even the previous ones to come out, showcases a story that we haven't really seen from these DC superheroes and villains. I have been enjoying it a lot and I look forward to future releases.

4 stars | I love Tamaki's work and I was so pleased to see she'd written a Supergirl comic! It's nothing like the TV show (which I was slightly disappointed about, because ALEX), but it was pretty amazing nonetheless. Kara Zor-El is such a great character and it's always fun to read about her :)

Allie Herrington

Librarian: This is easily one of the most realistic feeling teen hero stories that I've ever read. Kara feels like a real teen. Sure, she has powers, but the issues she faces feel like things that normal kids can relate to. Plus this is clearly setting up a good story, that is perfectly designed to draw in young readers. I'll definitely be recommending that we add both this, and future volumes to the collection.
Reader: 
Confession time: I've never read Supergirl before. She was never a character that called to me. Still, I thought that it was time to give her another try. I'm glad I did. This story is great and I can't wait to see what's going to happen next.

Caldecott Honor and Eisner Award-winning writer Mariko Tamaki (This One Summer) and Eisner Award-nominated artist Jo‘lle Jones (Lady Killer) combine forces for this incredible coming-of-age tale! This is the Girl of Steel as youÕve never seen her before. SheÕs super-strong. She can fly. She crash-landed on Earth in a rocket ship. But for Kara Danvers, winning the next track meet, celebrating her 16th birthday and surviving her latest mega-zit are her top concerns. And with the help of her best friends and her kinda-infuriating-but-totally-loving adoptive parents, she just might be able to put her troubling dreams-shattered glimpses of another world-behind her. Until an earthquake shatters her small town of MidvaleÉand uncovers secrets about her past she thought would always stay buried. Now KaraÕs incredible powers are kicking into high gear, and people she trusted are revealing creepy ulterior motives. The time has come for her to choose between the world where she was born and the only world sheÕs ever known. Will she find a way to save her town and be super, or will she crash and burn?
