Sprocking DC finally brings Kara Zor-El back–and turns her into Britney with superpowers. Feh. :P

Oh, definitely, they’re two different characters. Laurel was formidable in a way that Kara never was.

I’m sure a lot of people expected me to cover Andromeda and Supergirl together, but in my mind they’re separate and distinct characters…

I’ll be getting to her, eventually. I’m trying to balance out the Legionnaires, giving a nice blend of old and new, well-known and obscure, but most of all, I’m trying to balance longer histories with shorter ones. Kinetix will be one of my shorter ones, but we’ll be following it up with a longer tenured member (possibly even one mentioned in this history, if you know where to look…)

Another Andromeda fan? Rock on!! Loathed Supergirl, loved her replacement, and her Batch SW6 relationship with Brainy is the only time the guy’s had a relationship that worked (then they went and killed his universe…)

I’ve read all of these, and when I remembered a new one was out, I couldn’t type the address properly because I was far too excited.

Dude, these are THE. BEST. No contest. Funny, informative, and with pretty pictures! -gasp-

Seriously, these just make my day, and I can’t wait for the next one. Who’re you gonna do? Tom Welling? Or Andromeda? (I vote second.)

I loved this one, especially since Supergirl has always been a bit blurry in my mind. (Though they all were, until I read these …. the only LoSH comics I’ve read are to the end of the Planet Hell incident or whatever postboot.) I like the choker outfit too, and the headband one is strangely cute. Though I totally hate characters who change their outfit too much and it’s not a daily basis. It makes it confusing to draw them. I’ll end up mixing up articles of clothing, and other such things . . .

Anyway, keep on rocking out loud!

Another job well done (even on a character I loathe) I do look forward to your Hero Histories. They brighten up a Monday (lord knows, mondays need brightening…)

If I were straight, I would want to get with Supergirl. I kind of still do, sort of like
Nicole Scherzinger from the Pussy Cat Dolls. Hot, hot, hot.

I have not even read Invisible Kid’s Hero History, but I will get around to this
first. Thanks so much for your hard work on these.

Love the flicker links. The second one is HOT!

Does this mean that Superb….er…Tom Welling is next?

“Like Jessica Drew, Carol Danvers, Kathy Kane, and others, our hero du jour is a female version of an existing hero.”

I’ve always hated characters like them. Supergirl, Batgirl/Woman, Catman, Spider-Woman, etc. Get your own identities, ya bastaches.

At least with Kinetix I won’t tear up at a death scene. Heck, I wish she was a Carggite so I could watch her die three times!

Wow. Had no idea there were so many Supergirl costumes.
