Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow
Named by James Gunn as an influence for Gods and Monsters, the first chapter of the new DC Universe film and television slate! This story will be adapted as the upcoming film SUPERGIRL: WOMAN OF TOMORROW.
It’s Supergirl like you’ve never seen her before, in a character-defining sci-fi/fantasy masterpiece from Mister Miracle writer Tom King and Wonder Woman artist Bilquis Evely!
Now in stunning deluxe edition hardcover!
Kara Zor-El has seen some epic adventures over the years, but she now finds her life without meaning or purpose. Here she is, a young woman who saw her planet destroyed and was sent to Earth to protect a baby cousin who ended up not needing her. What was it all for? Wherever she goes, people only see her through the lens of Superman’s fame.
Just when Supergirl thinks she’s had enough, everything changes. An alien girl seeks her out for a vicious mission. Her world has been destroyed, and the bad guys responsible are still out there. She wants revenge, and if Supergirl doesn’t help her, she’ll do it herself, whatever the cost. Now a Kryptonian, a dog, and an angry, heartbroken child head out into space on a journey that will shake them to their very core.

A unique tale in the lore of Supergirl, that feels like the kind of high fantasy/sci-fi you’d find in Heavy Metal.
This book made me think a lot about who Supergirl is as a character, how she’s similar to Clark and how she’s different. Kara and Clark feel like a matched set, which nothing against that, I love it even, but King worked hard to show Kara’s values and personality separate from Clark and Superman. I really liked it.
The art was absolutely gorgeous. Kara has the looks of a silent film star, and I thought it might be jarring considering the high fantasy of the plot but it worked really well!
All in all, a very enjoyable book in the Supergirl canon.
