RIP!! I just found you two days ago and now you're gone. Life is not fair.😢

[@ryudragon7]

I adore Supergirl and her comics. It's sad that there isn't much of a fanbase for her.

[@maximusprime3459]

They can never figure out a proper persona for her. Ever since Kara was brought back before the NEW52, every creative team that works with the character changes her so drastically. It never seems like you're reading the same character with any consistancy.

[@marco39120]

I get why James Gunn wants to make this into a movie, it was pretty good.

[@TheComicBookReport]

Agreed 💯💯💯

[@kylemiles4142]

Wow!!! This is really good!!!! I’m bummed that this is just now being brought to my attention! Thank you and thank James Gunn!

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

I can see why King made this story for his daughter. And Kara has been through it! I mean, she went through at least 3 genocides of her people.

[@WannabeWryter]

Yeah, like she can be a happy Superfam character, but she should have a bit of a Sardonic Side to her. It be a nice counter to Clarks or who should be a ray of sunshine. SUPERMAN " Let's go, protect the people, save the day and make sure no one gets hurt" SUPERGIRL "Kal, I love you, but I can only promise 2 of those things" CONNOR " I'll do all 3 and look great doing it" JON Superboy "Woo-hoo, Let's GO!!!" This story proves Kara's the Nightwing of the Superman Family (either her, Steel, and Jimmy Olsen, Flamebird stan)

[@HellboyBr11]

​@@WannabeWryterI agree with you. Kara as Supergirl doesn't have to literally be Superman in a skirt in terms of characters, but rather a character with her own personality and with her own issues to resolve.

[@KillerBebe]

I’ve been a fan of SuperGirl since the 1970’s. Our fan base may be small but we are loyal.

[@spystar18]

Hearing this narrated like this low key makes me hype for the movie

[@AlexMcGillvrey]

The only way for this Supergirl movie to be good is to bring back Sasha Calle as Supergirl, especially after what happened to her in The Flash.

[@smashbro67]

I wonder how they would handle all the Superman related stuff since Legacy focuses on him in his earlier days.

[@friscokidd1122]

Benny!!!! Thank you!!! I have been anxiously awaiting your dramatic interpretation of this story. Read it awhile ago and loved seeing my gurl growing up! Great! Loved it!!! 🎉

[@bitsquare-vp7eg]

Not because I want a movie per such, but just because more people are reading this book, makes me so pleased that a movie is being announced. That ranks among my favorites.

Tom King gets a lot of crap for some of his stories, but this is a good one.

[@justalonelyman994]

I agree

[@MoramothHauntz]

Thanks guys. Feels a bit like a space western. I can see why Gunn would like it

[@zacharyting2590]

Tom King said that he was inspired by True Grit when he wrote this story.

[@zyairrbissoon]

Supergirl is easily one of the most underrated characters. I remember someone someone saying doomslayer could beat supergirl but lose to Superman and Wonder Woman

[@magentapurpleyap5566]

Supergirl is potentially stronger than superman in comic canon.

[@bluemindstudios3256]

@@magentapurpleyap5566 she's not, she's actually equal to superman, but the difference comes with personalities, superman isn't rude, he's pacifist, supergirl... not.

[@raymondbermudez555]

I like the story. Couple things: 1) who does Supergirl want revenge against for krypton; 2) there always hope AFTER a few hundred years.

[@UnknowinglyDerpy]

I’m pretty sure that’s the point though… who do you blame for when armageddon knocks on your door and the only reason it happened was because a random natural disaster just happened to spin the wheel of fate and land on your home?

[@Sengial]

1. She doesnt want revenge. She just misses her family and home 2. It just shows that with enough time and reflection, anyone is able to become good

Power girl

[@ArmandoFranciscoHernandez]

I bought this TP of Supergirl for several important women in my life this past Christmas because I find this story to be the greatest heroine story of this millennium so far Also, loved listening to Benny do his interpretation of the story, I just find it so relatable and profound; especially for those who have dealt heavily with tragedy in their lives like myself

[@clonedavenger]

The ending is really what caught me off guard. Upon first reading it, I honestly thought that Ruthye had killed Krem with her cane, but he does "twitch" in the second panel. But goes into resting phase in the third, so it kinda makes it less clear, but I guess Tom King has said Ruthye didn't kill him. Even said, the ending felt a little cold, but when you think about how many people he senselessly murdered including her father, it may just be too hard of a thing for her to forgive, regardless of how much he changed. I am sure she is glad he has, but she still wants nothing to do with him, and I guess that is fair, is it not? I guess we expect a more fairytale ending, but not every story should be like that. The only other thing that bothered me was how much Supergirl cussed. It just felt a little over done, yeah she's more edgy than her cousin, I get that, but it was just a little much at times. The art is simply beautiful and kept me engaged when sometimes the story didn't. Overall though, I see why this is being made into a movie, just wonder how big the budget is going to be for it!

[@db5627]

Well, I see why James wants to use this story. But it'll be interesting how he does as in this story supergirl is already been around for a minute. So I'm wondering how he will appoarch this.

[@BTBSOUNDS]

Well given that Superman isn't an origin story and Batman already had Damian and the Bat Family, it might be safe to assume that we're gonna jump into the middle of their lives after they've been doing their thing for years. Kinda like how the PS4/5 Spider-Man game was set 8 years after him being Spidey

[@agente5-sigma20]

Plus the CW already gave us a Supergirl origin story, so no need to backpedal

[@michaelwhitmire9015]

This is the one they want to use? I had this comic years ago and thought it was disappointing.

[@icqpimp]

​@@agente5-sigma20 That's a bad example because not everyone has watched that Supergirl show. People know Superman and Batman, and Spider--Man. They don't know Supergirl like that, even with the TV show.

[@fireflame62]

I'm assuming this will be a sequel to superman legacy

[@angelus6769]

Rest in Peace Benny

[@BlackSpiders75]

I love your story telling. Great work in your channel also. I have a request if possible, can you do a Miracle Man story, that would be so awesome to see!!

[@christopherbaker275]

This was really good

[@ojmcclanahan689]

As far as the movie being based on this story, I think it's a really weird place to start. Personally, I think the Supergirl movie should be based on Superman/Batman: The Supergirl from Krypton from 2004.

[@tvariuness]

this adaption is going to be interesting to say the least.

[@UnknowinglyDerpy]

Honestly took me a good while… let’s say… ever since i finished reading the series back in the middle of 2022 to realise now that the killing Krem ending in Ruthye’s book is to put all the heat onto supergirl instead…

[@sheldoncscoggins]

Reading this one right now and it’s so great!

[@relbedttocs7288]

Did anyone else see the title as 'Supergirl woman, of tomorrow'?

[@bellcurve0]

She 21… on what planet? Like has that supergirl ever been to earth? Is she using earth years? So many questions.

[@thedude1878]

Glad Benny covered this since I'll never ever have a copy thanks to James Gunn now.

[@SetoShadowVT]

"45 minutes. What a pansy" A certain crowd is definitely not going to like that line if it gets fully adapted lol

[@WannabeWryter]

In the comic, she says, "What a little b****," so yeah, but it's funnier. 😅

[@buchukenea]

this actually has potential

[@Reapermaskhybrid]

And James Gunn is the perfect man to adapt it.

[@Khaoticsuccubus]

Hmm, not bad I suppose. Could be interesting in movie format. Not sure I liked all the preaching vengeance / killing bad when the targets are ppl that literally kill for giggles on a massive scale. Not everyone carries around a portable hell dimension to lock them in after all lol. Other than that it was kinda confusing. Especially towards to end.

[@GuardianKyle]

I wonder if the film will be a Supergirl Origin, or just already establish her in Gunn's DC Universe.

[@rosenthal1466]

a bit of both, I guess

[@TextosyGraficos]

Well, one chapter is supergirl origin

[@terrillgoodwinejr537]

In January 2024, it was announced that Milly Alcock had been cast to play Kara Zor-El / Supergirl in the upcoming DC Universe.

[@nuthinbutj4151]

There has to be a better introductory supergirl story than this. Its just gonna confuse the average movie goer. I have little faith in Gunn handling the DCU

[@rosenthal1466]

i think Gunn going for more unique starting point rather than a conventional linear storyline, Gunn’s DCU started with many superheroes already existed and not focusing on origin but instead their character development and current conflicts. Kinda excited for this approach

[@davidniangoran8866]

​@@rosenthal1466gives me Invincible vibes

[@1stDRAGonLINE]

I get now why this story is very good. But the theme forgiveness and compassion more suited to wonder women no? Id imagine super girl would be more teenager-ish.

[@WannabeWryter]

Well she's like twenty one, And considering how long she's be around kara would be the same age as Nightwing whose in his twenties. Teen adventures would be for Connor Kent. Kid adventurers would be for Jonathan kent. (SCREW BENDIS & TOM)

[@urippe]

Gonna be honest I don't think I like this story. Wanted to check it out since James Gunn is going to make the supergirl movie inspired by this comic. I can see how some elements would be good for a movie but to me this story overall was okay. If there are a lot of changes then tbh it could be good but idk about this one

To me Tom King gets way to much hate for his Batman run but it really wasnt awful and had some really great single to 2 issue short stories and the Annuals were great too. Was it a perfect run? Not at all but it’s not horrible as some KZbinrs make it to be. But stuff like Supergirl:Woman of Tomorrow, Human Target, GothamCity: Year One, Batman/Elmer Fudd, Justice League Darkseid War:Green Lantern,are absolute comics perfection Mister Miracle, Strange Adventures, Rorschach, Batman:Killing Time, Love Everlasting and Dark Crisis Worlds Without A Justice League:Superman and Swamp Thing:Winter Special are a close close second Heroes in Crisis and Batman/Catwoman are…. Not great at all… interesting failures

[@huckleberryartist609]

It’s a great series. I just had one question: In the final scene, why is Ruthye old but Kara isn’t? Do Kryptonians not age or something, because Superman has grey hair in kingdom come. I was just confused.

[@rosenthal1466]

I believe kryptonian aging rather slowly when energized by the sun constantly, In kingdom come, superman been self-isolating and didn’t get proper sun inside his cave so he’s aging rapidly

[@jashardwallington]

They accept a talking raccoon an a talking tree but this is to complicated

[@donovanfaust3227]

You don't face the direction you row a boat, Kara had her back to Ruthee and the shore so if she were rowing how she's supposed to she would end up going towards them, not away. Unfortunately though the artist wanted to show how Supergirl is turning her back on the request so you end up with this panel that is supposed to be a serious moment and it just ends up looking silly if you think about it for more than two seconds.

[@DimitriYar]

When WB make´s a Supergirl movie. Please cast Laura Diane Vandervoort. She will be the best choise to play Kara Zor-el/Supergirl. Laura also looks identical to the comic´s !
