Book of Interest: Supergirl: Being Supergirl

I understand why DC Comics brought back the Danvers origin for Supergirl, it distinguishes her story from her cousin Clark Kent's. But I still miss Kara growing up with Jonathan and Martha Kent and I noticed that when she's a Danvers she doesn't always interact as much with Clark, Martha and Jonathan.

With that said, I still am really interested in reading the Supergirl: Being Supergirl miniseries. I had wanted to read it when the first issue was released but with so many comics on my weekly list, I decided to wait to get the trade edition.

I can't wait to read this.

Description:

Kara Danvers isn’t any different than any other teenager in her hometown. Problems with school. Problems with boys. Problems with friends.

Being super. This re-imagining of Supergirl will appeal to fans of all ages and readers new and old, as the Girl of Steel flies face-first into the struggles that every teenager faces.
