Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow #1-8, 224 pages
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5
Synopsis (from Goodreads)
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.

Review
I heard that the new Supergirl movie next year is inspired by this story, so I wanted to read this before it comes out. I knew the basics, but not too much about Supergirl before reading this, and this definitely makes me even more excited for the movie. Kara is a super interesting character and I really hope they stay true to this version of her. The art is also really beautiful which helped my overall enjoyment, since sometimes these superhero comics get a little visually unappealing and rough.
