Been sitting on this for a couple of years now. Figured might as well let people see a bit of what we had been thinking for Supergirl's future as she enters the turbulent world of high school. One of the things I would like to point out about these images is the evolution of Kara's design. When the first series was announced (along with an image never intended for the public) the common complaint was that our Supergirl was boyish. That she was rough looking. That she looked awkward and maybe even a little weird. Eric could have drawn Supergirl as the epitome of style and grace. But that wouldn't have been our Supergirl. Our Supergirl was a character who needed to grow. She was overly self-aware, insecure and gangly, that's part of being a young teenager (particularly as younger teens see themselves from within) and therefore an important part of the storytelling. I think with the slight changes to the artwork here we really begin to see Kara's self confidence manife...
A bit like "King Kong Escapes"?
ReplyDeleteMonkeys vs. Robots ftw!
This was a favorite series for my son and me, and it was a major fruatration to have it end where it did (and of course that was not your fault).
ReplyDeleteDo you have any information on whether Marvel will publish the conclusion of this storyline?
Thanks,
