I had a fun time with this book but I had to keep imagining Batwoman as basically almost a teenager in it for it to click. I do think the Supergirl/Batwoman pairing works but not if we get Kate acting younger than she is, which is what feels like happens here too much. There's some fun in the action we get and the time with Alice but I will always have a hard time dealing with a group called the Religion of Crime. Stohl's story gets the job done overall but I'm wary of some of the dialogue. Laura Braga's artwork is spot on throughout and just an utter delight as I really enjoyed her take on both leads and how well it all blends together as a whole work. Combined with Prianto's strong color design for it, it's a really fun opening read overall. Read Full Review

Clearly the success of Kara and Kate's chemistry on CW shows motivated DC to give these two their own series, where they could co-star. Now, it's completely irrelevant if you like their solo TV shows or despise them with passion. All that matters is, these two on screen have undoubtedly great chemistry and compliment each other, being polar opposites. While I don't watch their shows, I gotta admit I like their growing friendship. A lot. Thus when I learned there's a new comic with them, I picked it up out of curiosity, to see what DC cooked this time, taking to consideration Batwoman's been pretty irrelevant since her involvement in Tynion's Detective Comics, while Supergirl writers clearly don't know what to do with her. Taking two pretty unused characters and teaming them up could either fail due to lack of plan for the main duo or succeed, revitalizing them in the process.
I'm pleased to report succeed it did.

The issue is entertaining and action packed, while also being targetted at more casual audiences. There's no entry level to be found here, no homework you gotta do before reading it. I like that, since that's exactly how you target new audiences who normally don't read comics and all they know are CW soap operas with capes.

I look forward to more. So far I'm positively surprised with this comic. Kara may finally have something to do in the comics, a direction to pursue, and a good partner to add a different point of view to her adventures. more
