Supergirl goes bar-hopping...in space! Hot on the trail of Rogol Zaar, Supergirl is on the hunt for the Krypton killer's mysterious cohorts known as the Circle. That quest finds the Maid of Might kicking over rocks at a scuzzy intergalactic dive bar, where she runs into Ambush Bug of all people-not to mention a wretched hive of scum and villains who want to kill her, too. But before Supergirl can track down Krypton's former location, her suit's yellow sun energy starts to run out, which is going to leave her gasping in the vacuum of space!

    This has evolved into a great side-story to Bendis' Superman run that I may enjoy more than the main books. Read Full Review

    It's all leading to the big 25th issue next month. I'm as excited as can be for it. Read Full Review

    Comic Watch - Amit Malaviya Nov 20, 2018

    Marc Andreyko is doing some stellar work fleshing Kara Zor-El and her world out into something more substantial, and Doc Shaner makes the adventure a visual treat. Highly recommended. Read Full Review

    Kara's quest to find out what really happened to Krypton and Rogol Zaar's involvement continues in Supergirl #24 and while earlier issues have struggled with how Supergirl is portrayed, this week's issue hits it just right. Read Full Review

    Pop Culture Uncovered - Eric Mitchell Nov 14, 2018

    The only negative thing to take away from this book, is that the villains are not as involved as they should be. The are staying in the shadows and I would like to see more from them. I want to see their motivations and why they did what they did. I hope the answers come soon. Read Full Review

    Supergirl doesnt really acquire any new information about Rogol Zaar, but by the end of this issue she has reached the remains of Krypton, the scene of the crime, so to speak. Read Full Review

    Overall, we get more details to inform us on this journey. The suit has a finite energy battery. She can recharge the suit different ways. She has Daredevil powers. She has acquired another crystal. She met Z'ndr and has brought him along. Gandelo is spying on her already. Read Full Review

    Comics: The Gathering - Hussein Wasiti Nov 14, 2018

    This was a very beautiful and highly recommended issue from an artistic standpoint. We rarely get Shaner art anymore so anything works for me. The story is fun enough though the momentum gained in the last issue is somewhat lost, if not totally. Read Full Review

    Comic Book Corps - Keith OneShot Nov 14, 2018

    Overall, I think this was a fun and action packed chapter in the Supergirl saga that does a good job at pushing the story further just enough to keep me hooked in for the ride and had an ending that has me worried for Kara and left me waiting to know what happens next. I also like that Kara has someone new to travel with, and I'm interested to learn more about him and his motivations and to see if maybe there is something between these two that will develop down the way.

    Word Of The Nerd - Brent Jackson Nov 14, 2018

    Supergirl #24 was a solid mid of the road issue. Nothing too crazy happens but it does help propel the ongoing story. It also serves as a pretty good jumping on point for new readers as well. The art is fantastic and Shaner with Fairbairn is always incredible to look at. I am just not sold that the art fits with the story. It just feels like two different tones and that they do not match up with each other. Read Full Review

    DC Comics News - Adam Ray Nov 16, 2018

    VerdictThis is a great extension of the current storyline. It's more of a pit stop than an important junction, or new turning. We can see all the complications and divergences that could lead the story further. The arc can go anywhere from here, making issues like this exciting points for readers like us to see the possibilities. Read Full Review

    You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff Nov 14, 2018

    Supergirl #24 might be a bit of a letdown after the last 3 issues, but the story continues to propel forward through a dull space western chapter under the power of a distinctly appealing take on the lead character. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Dan Mayhoff Nov 14, 2018

    The issue focuses around a single scene that doesn't really go anywhere for most of the issue. Maybe there are aspects that have been dropped that will affect the book going forward but until then it was a bit weird for the book to not go anywhere in this issue. The book was good but it wasn't great. Read Full Review
