What drives me nuts about this is that I feel like I'm fighting all over again the character battles we had over Supergirl back in 2006-2007 when she was shooting up school buses and having addict type hallucinations. DC did not listen then, and will not listen now and seems quite content with a Supergirl that exists to do nothing save traffic in tragic mistakes that make Kon and Kal El look wonderful by comparison. This is TEN TIMES WORSE than "being in Superman's shadow", it is being "Superman's little dupe"....and if this is the case then give me the Silver Age with it's unctuous paternalism and restrictive notions of femininity, at least THAT Supergirl would have spotted H'el for a Sumb*tch a mile off.<br /><br />JFAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-42949762800716867692013-04-16T21:01:48.683-04:002013-04-16T21:01:48.683-04:00That's the spirit Anj - don't let them get...That's the spirit Anj - don't let them get to us - continue one as we would and as you would with a great blog.RanodmFXhttp://www.projectsuperwoman.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-45438816608629854182013-04-16T09:25:44.908-04:002013-04-16T09:25:44.908-04:00I'm currently in the process of catching up wi...I'm currently in the process of catching up with DC (As far as the Superman family is concerned, I'm half way through the Grounded / Black Ring stories. I've finished the last Supergirl Trade, a Series I picked up as part of the New Krypton crossover.<br />It's worrying to read about how the Super-family (which I intend to collect after I caught up) is doing at the moment :(Alesnoreply@blogger.com
