Happy Thanksgiving!

For those who celebrate, hope you have a great Thanksgiving day.

I am, as always, thankful for the audience this place has.

Thanks for heading here and talking Supergirl!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate!

Will #goalweight survive a massive Thanksgiving meal? If it doesn't, I'm blaming Red Kryptonite!

Happy Thanksgiving! And Thanks To The Sutherlands

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who celebrates the holiday!

The purpose of this holiday is for everyone to pause and give thanks for all the things in their lives.

Now I am thankful for my family and feel blessed to be part of the lives of my daughters each day.

But this year I am struck by how many friends I have made via social media. I have a passion for comics and on-line I have been lucky enough to find a circle of friends who share that love. I mean, I have only met a couple of you all in person but I feel like I know you all. I wouldn't dare list you all in fear of forgetting someone. But to the people I interact with almost daily on twitter and on my site, thanks for talking comics with me!

I did want to single out Darrin and Ruth Sutherland who are huge comic fans and run the TrekkerTalk website and podcast. They were at a convention recently and bought me a Neal Adams' Supergirl print and had him sign and personalize it for me! I have seen Adams at plenty of cons, actually seen this print and debated buying it, but have never bit the bullet. So to get this gift in the mail was just fantastic. Thanks so much Ruth and Darrin!

The Sutherlands social media links are:

In particular, for Supergirl fans, the two discuss Ron Randall's run on Supergirl on a recent TrekkerTalk podcast.

 

Anyways, for all celebrating, feel free to feast on turkey and sides!

And thanks again to all my buddies here!

Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Happy Thanksgiving to all my American readers!

I will be busy stuffing myself  much like Superman is above (albeit with turkey and sides not hamburgers).Ahh, the tradition of gluttony!

Anyways, I am sort of taking today off.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who visits, talks Supergirl and Superman with me, and is part of the community!

Hope everyone has a great day!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone here in the USA!

I keep looking through my collection for a specific Supergirl Thanksgiving moment but I still can't seem to find one.

So I figured what better way to give thanks than to show a picture of Supergirl simply laying the smack down on Darkseid. I am thankful for moments like this in comics.





The above scene takes place in Justice League Unlimited #7 written by Adam Beechen and pencilled by Ethen Beavers. The story compares Orion's struggles with his father to this Supergirl's struggles acclimating to living with the Kent's. It isn't a bad story for a Johnny DC book and showcases Supergirl nicely.

And ... as always ... just a thanks to those who visit and contribute here! Hope everyone has a great turkey day!

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

I could not find any specific Supergirl/Thanksgiving moments in a brief perusal of my collection although one must exist. So instead I treat you to this cover from Adventure Comics #394 drawn by Kurt Schaffenberger. In this near incomprehensible story, Kara gets thrown in jail by an intergalactic tyrant after she attempts to dismantle his dangerous 'Zenith Weapon'.

In the story the prisoners beg for a meal to be served and are forced to fight over some scraps. Reminds me of some Thanksgiving tables I have sat at. Please, no food riots on turkey day. Hee hee.

In the end, the other prisoners turn out to be super-heroines from other planets and they all team up to end the threat. You have to give thanks for the Silver Age.

On a different note, I just want to give thanks to everyone who visits this blog and comments. I started this blog on a complete whim, a way to get some ideas I had about Supergirl out of my head and into text form. I never expected that there would be others out there that not only had the same passion for the character that I have but have also found the blog and like it! This blog has really been a perfect creative outlet for me and reading other fan's thoughts about the character is wonderful. It really has been a great thing for me.

Thanks to all! Hope you all have a great holiday!
