Supergirl's going to cure cancer? That's what she promised that 5 year old boy last issue. Unfortunately she's got no ones support. And I mean no one! Superman has basically brushed her off. He more or less told her that he's to busy to even bother with her. Wonder Woman has basically laughed in her face. So now she's turned to . . . Mitchell Shelley. You know . . the Resurrection Man. Well . . here's her plan. Mitchell's powers are that every time he dies . . he comes back with a different power. She wants to kill him over and over again until he comes back with the power to cure cancer. Mitchell's not to keen on that idea, but . . Kara's pretty determined. Unfortunately, after he finally concedes to her wishes . . she can't bring herself to pull of the task. Not even for the sake of the little boy. However, for whatever reason, he does want to help her see this through to the end. So he gives her the name of a doctor . . a researcher actually, who may be able, and willing, to help. Also unfortunately . . Doctor Luzano is in prison right now. Kara breaks him out and demands that she, Mitchell and the good Doctor, all proceed to his secret lab so they can make use of his nanotech discoveries. If nothing else . . she is tenacious. However, on the final page, Lois and Clark are at the Daily Planet when they get the news of Kara's deeds. "This one's mine.", Clark says, with that stern look on his face. I enjoyed Kelley Puckett's story, but I'm not overly thrilled with Drew Johnson and Ray Snyder's art. Ron Randall even pitches in a little this issue to help, but . . it doesn't, really. It's not that it's terrible art. I suppose . . it's ok. But it's definitely not in a style that I'm thrilled with. I'm only concerned because I would really hate to see this book crash & burn. I really do enjoy the character.
