Her costume has shifted again, though, with an altered "1980's" costume. The headband is very thin, with the cape coming out by her shoulders, and her sleeves are the puffy sleeves of her 1970's blouse. <br /><br />Either the artist didn't know how to draw her, or he wanted to try to incorporate as much of the original Supergirl as he could seeing as how there might have already been talks about making her unmentionable; perhaps, the artist just wanted to have his hand and creating a costume for Kara.<br /><br />Later on in the series, a letter asked how Kara was there since she was dead, and the answer was that DC Challenge was not in canon/ continuity with the rest of the DC Universe. <br /><br />By the way, as a supposed Sgirl expert, I still don't know how DC erased Kara Zor-El, Kara Zor-L and changed Kal-El with John Byrne's revamp when in Crisis it ended with the world knowing Supergirl was dead and Superman and Power Girl comforting each other. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-15865813208132974382014-07-06T23:43:02.934-04:002014-07-06T23:43:02.934-04:00Why can't DC return to the pre-crisis Supergir...Why can't DC return to the pre-crisis Supergirl?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-19917889877366874042014-07-06T19:55:12.766-04:002014-07-06T19:55:12.766-04:00I have to say that I stopped reading it at issue 8...I have to say that I stopped reading it at issue 8 because it was too nonsensical. So I doubt I'll buy the issues I'm missing.<br /><br />This is very rough art, even for Kane at this stage of the game.

We missed a GOLDEN inter-blog promotional opportunity wherein our characters of choice appear in a few panels without any dialogue in a story that's pure nonsense where Klaus Janson demolishes Gil Kane's pencils and I'm already getting a headache just joking about it. I never finished reading the mini-series because I never finished writing it up, and I now have a lot of negative association because of a boondoggle of a blog crossover that you did great on.<br /><br />I'm going to go have a little cry now.Diabolu Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04685199809207954223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-41134497331757509512014-07-05T09:19:13.844-04:002014-07-05T09:19:13.844-04:00I just checked and it looks like issue #5 is avail...I just checked and it looks like issue #5 is available at MyComicShop.com for not much money.<br />https://www.mycomicshop.com/search?TID=229541<br /><br />I've never read this story but part of me has always wanted to because it's so crazy. I think you did the right thing to grab as much of it as you could while it was so cheap.Count Drunkulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130778855882160092noreply@blogger.com
