I leave this story as I came into it, with the sense that this was never a Supergirl story. It was a Ruthye story that got Supergirl attached to it. While Ruthye's character stays well told and consistent, Kara continues to be pasted in with little to no regards about her characterization. She becomes whatever is needed to tell Ruthye's story.

Maybe for a Supergirl fan the real payout of this story is that we saw a rare return of Comet. We don't get a deep dive with him and Kara's connection, but then this story was never really about Kara. But for the few panels we do have Comet around, King does portray him pretty well. Of course Comet ultimately cared about Kara because she dedicated her life to helping others. It would have been interested to see why he would care about her dedication to vengeance. Something that we might have dived into, you know, if the story had been about Supergirl.
