I spend a lot of time and money buying and reading comics. Most of the time I'm happy with my choices, sometimes not. I'm hoping,that with my reviews on what I've read, I might spare someone else dissapointment. I'll read anything, but I can't afford everything. If there's something you'd like for me to read, let me know. If you take the time to read this, please, take the time to let me know what you think. I may not agree with you, or you may not agree with me. But, so what. That's life.

Supergirl #23 - DC
To be perfectly honest, I'm not exactly sure what happened this issue. First of all, we have Kelley Puckett, Drew Johnson and Ray Snyder taking over with this issue. We start out the issue with Batman testing Supergirl. But before he can scold her to much, she gets a distress call from her cousin. Superman is helping the Green Lantern Corp fend off another attack. But the only way they're going to stop this from continually happening is to find the enemies command center. In order to do that, they have to follow one of the courier ships back to their base. Superman would normally be the man to do this, but he's got his hands a little full right now. So he's asked Kara. She's agreed but the only way she'll be able to follow is by proximity. She'll be detected by sensors any other way she tries. So they've instructed her to fly above the ship and keep a 10 meter distance at all times. But she's in outer space, and as Superman has told her, she'll only be able to hold her breathe for about 2 hours. She follows the ship, but somehow they know she's there. They end up sending her careening into a sun. And then they fire on her. She runs out of time, and breath, so she uses the portal device to take her back to Superman. Essentially . . . she failed. She goes back home, and as she looks at the test that Batman had left for her earlier, her mind starts racing. She looks at the portal device and says "Two hours.", and it looks like a light switch has gone off in her head. She then jumps back in to the portal . . . . and the issue ends. I'm more than a little confused. Something is screwy . . . but . . . I don't know what it is. It could be Batman, Superman, the whole following the ship scenario. But it won't do me any good to guess because I won't know a thing until next issue. I'd like to say that it was a good first issue for our creative team, but, since I don't really know what happened, at best I'd have to say . . . it was a good start. Hopefully after next issue . . . I'll be able to form a more solid opinion.
