First things first.
I am not a gigantic comics fan. I've never been to a comic book shop. I know the big names. Basically, if they had a live action TV show, I know them.
So, my opinion is not as well-informed as that of some.
One of the readers I am not a frequent reader of comics is the silliness involving Supergirl that this collection tries to correct. Big fans know what I'm talking about - Supergirl is dead, she's replaced by an ectoplasmic being who is called Supergirl, yadda, yadda, yadda.
So, Supergirl from Krypton is re-introduced here as a concept. Thank goodness.
The story itself is good, but not nearly as good as Volume #1 in this series. The art is interesting - the men are hyperdeveloped to the point of silliness (their suits look like they are painted on to professional bodybuilders) but the women are wonderful - this rendition of Wonder Woman is the best I've ever seen, including Linda Carter!

Good read, not as ground-breaking as others before it, but still a good read for your suspension of disbelief

There are high stakes here, and high power on top of that. With the arrival of yet another Supergirl retcon into the dc universe, many players are interested. From a hopeful and lonely Superman to a suspicious Batman, a worried villain fraternity and Darkseid, who sees a big opportunity.
Even giving her to Wonder Woman to train comes at a cost.

Story: acceptable. Art: ranges from good to mindblowing, athough Turner needs to practice drawing feet. This has a place on your shelf.

well i have mixed feelings about this. the art is great, the story is fairly good until the end. the end of the book is so extremely cheesy it leaves a bad taste in your mouth. superman introduces supergirl to the jla, jsa, titans, etc. and it's god-awful cheese. but i like the beginning of the book when kara lands and batman finds her.
