Fantastic Debut for Writer and Artist on SupergirlBy Mel OdomSterling Gates took over the writing reins of the months Supergirl strip and has proceeded to deliver a new spin on the Girl of Steel that I love. In the issues he's written, Kara has become a real person, a teen that reminds me of the daughter I raised, as well as her friends. Not only that, but with Geoff Johns and James Robinson's leadership into the world of New Krypton, Gates is also building on the deeper Kryptonian heritage that Kara possessed and young Kal- El (Superman) did not.With the present storyline underway in the Superman book, Kal-El is torn and challenged, but Kara's memories and place within the New Krypton community is more frail and more fully realized. There are definite responsibilities and expectations.But I digress. Some of the above is backstory that you'll need to get from other graphic novels to better understand what's taking place in this one. The first issue collected in this graphic novel is very much a standalone piece that sets Gates's vision of Supergirl in the minds of the fans. I enjoyed the vulnerable side of Kara, seeing how easily she was hurt by words when bullets, bombs, and buses didn't do the trick.From there, though, Gates delves deeply into Superman lore and brings an old character from the Superman universe into the forefront. Lucy Lane is Lois Lane's sister, and she was once the girlfriend of Jimmy Olsen. That lucy is gone however. In her place is Major Lucy Lane, a military officer that's a hard-as-nails, by-the-book kind of person that is, quite frankly, a little scary.Then there is the mystery of Superwoman. Although Kara wants to trust this superpowered heroine that's stepped into her life and has helped her with issues regarding living among Earthlings, Supergirl hasn't quite been able to trust her.In addition to the New Krypton storyline and Superwoman, Gates spins in other characters from the Superman books that provide touchstones for things going on over there, and embellishes on Kara's personal world as the "niece" of Lana Lang, another character that's stepped back on stage in the Superman universe.I enjoy the dialogue and the way Gates sets up his comics pages. The last panel of every page entices the reader to flip to the next to see what's going to happen. And there's a lot of story squeezed onto the pages as well. A lot of things are going on, a lot of relationships are explored. This is great storytelling and there's a lot of vision behind the events that come to fruition in the graphic novel, while leaving enough tantalizing threads dangling to ensure fans will come back for the next collection if they're not following the monthly books.One of the best things about the current Supergirl art is Jamal Igle, the penciler. He complements Gates's scripts with stunning visuals and action sequences that take the reader's breath away. Cat Grant's sexuality oozes from the pages. Lois and Clark's relationship is given depth in the way they're drawn standing together. And Jimmy Olsen's classic geekiness and naiveteacute; stands out. The man just can't draw a bad panel, or one that I wouldn't want to go back and see again and again.If you're new to Supergirl, or haven't read the strip for a while, I urge you to pick up Who Is Superwoman? and try it out. I think you'll find the story and art to be among the best out there, and Supergirl in the hands of these two storytellers is an entrancing character.1 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Sterling Gates' run, part 1 of 4By Wonder CilantronCollects issues 34, 37-42 (2005 series)Previously in the New Krypton story (***spoilers*** if you haven't read it):Superman rescued the bottle city of Kandor from Brainiac and enlarged it in Antarctica. The Kryptonians didn't fit in well, so they decided to create a new planet on the opposite side from the Earth and live there instead. Superman relocates there to keep an eye on General Zod. Supergirl's father Zor-El is killed by Reactron.This book: Issue 34. Daily Planet reporter Cat Grant doesn't like Supergirl and writes mean stories about her, which Perry White prints for some reason or other. Supergirl fights Silver Banshee for a bit, and decides to move in with Lana, pretending to be her niece Linda Lang.Issues 37-42: Kara's mother Alura orders her to bring Reactron to New Krypton. Major Lucy Lane is working for her father, General Sam Lane. Supergirl learns who Superwoman is, and then something bad happens to Superwoman. Lana learns she's ill.I haven't read a lot of Supergirl, but so far Sterling Gates is my second favorite author of her, after Peter David. However, it's hard for me to recommend this book, because it's very dependent on the very large New Krypton crossover event, which in my opinion started off well but ended poorly.3 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Another Good Graphic NovelBy Kyp317I'm a casual comic book reader. This one was a good read. There was a few New Krypton graphic novels you should probably read before this one. One of the better graphic novels i've read. Worth buying i'd say CITIZEN OF TWO WORLDS WANTED ON NEITHER Does the world need a Supergirl? With the Daily Planet labeling her a super-tart and her Kryptonian mother questioning her allegiance, Supergirl is lost, confused and angry. Enter Superwomanhellip; At first the mysterious superheroine appears to be a sympathetic friend to the beleaguered Kara. But when Supergirlrsquo;s tasked with capturing Reactronmdash;the gold Kryptonite-wielding psychopath who killed her fathermdash;itrsquo;s clear that Superwoman may not be the ally Supergirl believed her to be. With the burdens of two planets weighing on her, Kara must prevent Superwoman from pitting the people of Earth and New Krypton against one another. Will Supergirl be able to prove once and for all that she has earned the right to follow in Supermanrsquo;s footsteps? Writer Sterling Gates (ADVENTURES OF SUPERGIRL, GREEN LANTERN CORPS) and artist Jamal Igle (FIRESTORM) examine what itrsquo;s like to be the most powerful teenagerhellip;that nobody wants around. SUPERGIRL: WHO IS SUPERWOMAN? Collects SUPERGIRL #34 and #37-42. SUPERMAN AND THE JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA VOL. 2 THE JUSTICE LEAGUEmdash;RIPPED APART! The Man of Steel has died! Falling at the hands of the monster Doomsday, the Justice League's most powerful member is now gone.

The last Supergirl trade (before New 52) contains 3 arcs and resolves threads from previous volumes (and War of Supermen)By R. H.This is the last trade collection from Supergirl before the New 52 and contains 3 arcs. (DC cancelled the Good-looking Corpse trade that was supposed to come after this one.)The first and longest arc deals with the trade's title, Bizarrogirl, and the story there accomplishes much in allowing Supergirl to move beyond the events of the War of the Supermen and also helping out Bizarro's cuboid Earth (yep, this is the same one from Superman: Escape From Bizarroworld). The adventure is very fun, full of fights and hilarity (as expected from stories involving Bizarros). Plus, the emotions explored here work well in Supergirl facing her doubts and self-inflicted guilt from the aforementioned war.The second arc is an entertaining one-shot with the Legion of Superheros (although a different iteration from previous Supergirl trades).The final arc deals with a seemingly mundane villain, but the context in this final arc finally brings to a closure a previously unresolved thread from earlier Supergirl trades.

  • Media Industry Approaches to Comic-To-Live-Action Adaptations and Race
    From Serials to Blockbusters: Media Industry Approaches to Comic-to-Live-Action Adaptations and Race by Kathryn M. Frank A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Communication) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Amanda D. Lotz, Chair Professor Susan J. Douglas Professor Lisa A. Nakamura Associate Professor Aswin Punathambekar © Kathryn M. Frank 2015 “I don't remember when exactly I read my first comic book, but I do remember exactly how liberated and subversive I felt as a result.” ― Edward W. Said, Palestine For Mom and Dad, who taught me to be my own hero ii Acknowledgements There are so many people without whom this project would never have been possible. First and foremost, my parents, Paul and MaryAnn Frank, who never blinked when I told them I wanted to move half way across the country to read comic books for a living. Their unending support has taken many forms, from late-night pep talks and airport pick-ups to rides to Comic-Con at 3 am and listening to a comics nerd blather on for hours about why Man of Steel was so terrible. I could never hope to repay the patience, love, and trust they have given me throughout the years, but hopefully fewer midnight conversations about my dissertation will be a good start. Amanda Lotz has shown unwavering interest and support for me and for my work since before we were formally advisor and advisee, and her insight, feedback, and attention to detail kept me invested in my own work, even in times when my resolve to continue writing was flagging.

  • What Superman Teaches Us About the American Dream and Changing Values Within the United States
    TRUTH, JUSTICE, AND THE AMERICAN WAY: WHAT SUPERMAN TEACHES US ABOUT THE AMERICAN DREAM AND CHANGING VALUES WITHIN THE UNITED STATES Lauren N. Karp AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Lauren N. Karp for the degree of Master of Arts in English presented on June 4, 2009 . Title: Truth, Justice, and the American Way: What Superman Teaches Us about the American Dream and Changing Values within the United States Abstract approved: ____________________________________________________________________ Evan Gottlieb This thesis is a study of the changes in the cultural definition of the American Dream. I have chosen to use Superman comics, from 1938 to the present day, as litmus tests for how we have societally interpreted our ideas of “success” and the “American Way.” This work is primarily a study in culture and social changes, using close reading of comic books to supply evidence. I argue that we can find three distinct periods where the definition of the American Dream has changed significantly—and the identity of Superman with it. I also hypothesize that we are entering an era with an entirely new definition of the American Dream, and thus Superman must similarly change to meet this new definition.

The purpose of this research is to adapt the approaches used by prominent and influential writers and artists in the American superhero/action comic-book field to create an engaging Australian hero comic book. Further, the aim of this thesis is to bridge the gap between the lack of academic writing on the professional practice of the Australian comic industry. In order to achieve this, I explored and learned the methods these prominent and professional US writers and artists use. Compared to the American industry, the creating of comic books in Australia has rarely been documented, particularly in a formal capacity or from a contemporary perspective. The process I used was to navigate through the research and studio practice from the perspective of a solo artist with an interest to learn, and to develop into an artist with a firmer understanding of not only the medium being engaged, but the context in which the medium is being created.
