    Supergirl Comic Box Commentary - Anj Nov 10, 2017

    Very entertaining issue giving us a peek into Kara's life and worries. While I don't agree with the Danvers 100%, as a parent I know I always want my kids safe. So that thread is fascinating to me. And yessssssss ... Belinda Zee! Read Full Review

    A great and fun Supergirl issue for sure. Plenty of heart, beautiful artwork, and it really tests the patience and heroism of our young protagonist. Orlando and Houser should be congratulated on stepping outside the norm, and giving us something different, yet familiar. A very interesting cliffhanger sets up the next issue very nicely.

    On Comics Ground - Christina Williams Nov 10, 2017

    The art is fantastic, specialized, and expressive. Kara has my full attention. Im enjoying the story lines that come with Rebirth. Supergirl has been in need of this kind of hype that can only come with a well written comic, and Rebirth delivers. If you arent on board yet, you need to check her out. Youll understand the love and the hype behind Supergirl once you read her yourself. Read Full Review

    Black Nerd Problems - Jordan Calhoun Nov 8, 2017

    Overall, Supergirl #15 is a solid start to "Plain Sight" that has emotionally high stakes if not clear-and-present-danger ones yet. As the plot builds we will learn more about the external threat to National City, but for now the conflict lives within Supergirl, and that's a fine place to be. Read Full Review

    Word Of The Nerd - Brent Jackson Nov 8, 2017

    I am really starting to get into the story with Supergirl #15. It is very interesting to see how Kara is going to deal with all these new problems in her life. The writing team does a great job of balancing all of these different problems and subplots throughout the issue and making Supergirl #15 a really interesting read while starting a new story arc. While the art was very rough for the first few pages, it does smooth out for the rest of the issue. I am not sure what happened with those pages, but it does get a rather good book off to a rough start. I am looking forward to seeing where Kara goes from her and what happens with the reveal at the end of Supergirl #15. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Jim Werner Nov 8, 2017

    While still not perfect, this was a nice issue of Supergirl with some good character moments and really good art.  Sure, it was mostly about getting new readers up to speed (hopefully Jody Houser co-writing gets some) so those who have stuck with it may not be into such a recap heavy issue, but I am looking forward to the possibility of good things on the horizon.

    Comic Book Bin - Deejay Dayton Jan 5, 2018

    But by trying to evoke the tv show, without going all the way and duplicating it, I think the series as a whole is being weakened. Read Full Review

    Comic Crusaders - Rob Ferreri Nov 13, 2017

    This issue was part one of thePlain Sight storyline and if you are a fan of the show you may enjoy it, especially if you are less bothered by the show dictating the direction of the comic than I am. Read Full Review
