Alex Ross loves the Silver and Bronze Ages. In "Justice" he definitely used Kara, and she had a slightly bigger role and a few more lines than the remainder teen heroes (and I liked John's line right before de-brainwashing her: You're not killing any heroes, Supergirl. You're going to save people, as always")Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-64158506121670287072015-04-02T07:04:53.418-04:002015-04-02T07:04:53.418-04:00My guess is, as others have said, that this is Kar...My guess is, as others have said, that this is Kara Zor-El, reborn in another reality.<br /><br />It does sort of remind me of the Elseworlds Supergirl now that you mention it.<br /><br />And I thought this stern looks on everyone was the tried and true 'check us out, we aren't sidekicks any more' pose.

I really don't like this Supergirl look. Too harsh. And while it maybe a 'nicer' DCU, his characters are always posing in a 'are you looking at me' way - all attitude, no warmth. Look art Robin, did example, he looks like a nasty man!Martin Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574149543260175962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-34644629232038342382015-04-01T10:56:49.112-04:002015-04-01T10:56:49.112-04:00The way Supergirl was drawn reminds me of the Else...The way Supergirl was drawn reminds me of the Elseworld's Finest version of her.
