There’s something about Kara. She’s effortlessly cool, adored by all, and looks great in a cape—she’s truly all that! She could have fifty first dates lined up in a minute, but love actually wasn’t on her radar…until now! In this hot new anthology, join Supergirl and a host of lovestruck heroes and vil- lains as they bravely embark on quests for love, even if it means running through every rom-com trope to get there. You’d be hard pressed to find ten things to hate about this book, so pick it up this Valentine’s Day—and place it on the shelf next to all the books you’ve loved before!

    In lesser hands, this issue could have felt like an after-school special, but Campbell is so good at fusing human emotions with out-there superhero plotlines. Read Full Review

    So another emotionally heavy issue as things seem to be shaky between our friends. Campbell has made me care about this group already. I like that. I am interested to see how this all plays out. And Quinones' art remains top notch.  That said, I wouldn't mind a few more adventures, a few more villains, a few more punches. I wouldn't mind a little more brightness and a fewer tears.  Read Full Review

    The Aspiring Kryptonian - David Beasley Jan 14, 2026

    I initially had a more negative reaction to Supergirl #9 as it really felt disjointed from where the series had seemed to be headed. However, I've decided to hold out hope that we're just seeing a possibly awkward segue into the next arc. It is New Year's Resolution time after all, and change isn't always pretty. Read Full Review
