Supergirl #6 (Greek)


One of the things that I truly appreciate about this community is just how generous they are. One of the things I really love is when people who are traveling and see something Supergirl think of me and occasionally send it my way.

A good friend was in Greece recently and sent me two Supergirl books, one of which I will share today. From Anubis Publishing, I present their presentation of Supergirl #6 from the Loeb era of the character. This was on the shelves in the states way back in 2006!


The book sports the 'variant cover' by Ian Churchill. This was during the extremely brief time Greg Rucka was on the book and basically this books first 2 years was so all over the map it was the impetus for me to start the site! I ultimately did review this issue as I deep dived into Kandor at some point. 

This Greek edition is more than just a reprint of the issue though which is why I thought it might be fun to share here. Check out below.

(Now I will say that I don't speak Greek but if one of you out there does ...)


At the very least, I can see how Nightwing is written in the Greek alphabet but there is more.

There is a five page text piece which looks like a primer on the Supergirl character.

I can't read this. But littered through are issue numbers (252, 285, an Adventure comic) as well as creator names like Peter David. I even see event names like Crisis on Infinite Earths and Infinite Crisis.

Five pages!





So maybe this was supposed to be a sort of gateway into the character.

But if true, what a completely odd issue to pick to try to entice people to read more! This is Supergirl and Power Girl in Kandor!. She isn't even in costume!

Anyways, I'd love to know what it all says. Perhaps some day.

Thanks again to my friend for sending me this!
