Suffers from crossoveritis.... Like most of the New 52... I will say, it has been pretty easy to figure out where to find the rest of the stories (not that I am goanna get em, but if I ever want to) since it is a Superman family thing. Batman's Death Of The Family was the same way, pretty easy to figure it out there. Still, it is rather annoying to read it in bits and pieces like that, and then have to go back and read the previous volumes of whatever series you had to pick up to follow the whol...
So Supergirl is to blame for Power Girl's stupid new boob window costume. Thanks a lot, Supergirl.
4+ stars. One of DCs best titles these days. A bit jarring because only two chapters of a crossover event are here, so they didn't make much sense. Rest of the book is terrific. Might have to read the rest of the H'El story as I liked what was here.
Was not crazy about this one. Just read it for the Superman Hel on Earth tie-in. Just not a big fan of this version of Supergirl.
Crossover events that span multiple volumes for multiple characters are a “H'el”uva thing to keep straight and DC comics aren’t alone in the naughty publisher’s corner. Contained here we have bits and pieces of the “H'el on Earth” crossover, but not enough to follow coherently. The collection also lacks a resolution. Boo!From what I can gather, H'el’s a creepy looking Kryptonian, player of mind games, who’s trying to enlist Supergirl in his quest to turn back the clock on Krypton’s destruction a...
After last volume, I was done with Supergirl, but this was at the library and a new writer took over...Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.This comic is a piece. Of. Garbage.There's obviously crossover shit here, and I feel like a 7 yr old trying to understand quantum mechanics.A bad guy named H'el? Fuck off.Who's next a hero named H'even? How about an anti-hero named Purga Torrie?As with anything involving Kara, she inexplicably trusts ANYONE not named Superman, and anyone who is Superman a...
Much more likeable performance in story, and continuing solid art. (Although ALL of DC's writers need training in cross-overs; they should be able to tell two parallel stories that make sense, in case you aren't about to run snap up yet another round of comics just to understand a story...)The "H'el on Earth" story proceeded predictably, but only because I had read 1/3 in Superman, Volume 3: Fury at World's End. A couple of nice twists with Lex Luthor, a resurrected villain, Sanctuary, and Power...
Great artwork, decent stories...but, I was not too keen on the character of H'el.
Not bad. The H'el stuff (which is most of this volume) can be confusing without the completeness from the other books but the stories overall were entertaining.
The comic is definitely fantastic
I think I'd taken about an hour to finish reading Supergirl Vol. 3, it is a fun read and I'm glad to see the artwork being so fine, plus the character's design and their outfits are so outstanding (the combat scenes are also masterfully drawn). I rarely say this about DC's comic, but at least this time the artwork doesn't look too brightly colorful nor too crowded and the drawing is neat and upbeat.However, I have huge problem with the stories, although none of the storylines and the setting are...
Read the separate issues.The H'el on Earth story arc wasn't my favorite just cause Supergirl seems a bit too easily manipulated. Still nice to see a Supers crossover.
This was messy collection. This is mostly ruined by the He'el or whatever storyline. You know the big New 52 storyline that had Supergirl, Superman, and Superboy all come into play. Sounds like it could be a fun idea, but just one problem. Each collection has each other's comic issues. So just re-reading the same story of the lost family member coming down, tricking supergirl into falling in love with him, and fighting each other. Anyway, the other two issues are basically about Supergirl's Sanc...
(B) 72% | More than SatisfactoryNotes: Partway problematic and pointless, its perky posterior's pretty pleasing: a peppy, playful plot with plenty of pizzazz.
I'm not really digging this whole "Supergirl verus the world" motif that DC has started pulling. We all know that teenagers have angst, but this is cranking the drama up to eleven. There are enough whiny people on the planet as is. Let Supergirl be super.
He'l Crossover issues 2 stars.Power Girl team up. 4 stars.
3.5 stars Also reviewed at Addicted2Heroines I'd already read most of this in the crossover comic Superman: H'el on Earth. Not only read it, but was fairly unimpressed by it.So when I started reading this, and it turned out to be the Supergirl story that I'd already seen? Yeah. Not so much with the Happy.Supergirl: Sanctuary. I mean, it doesn't have H'el anywhere in the title! And it's not like I'm smart enough to look at the back of a comic before I pick it up, you know?!Ok, ok. I'm big enough
Note: Last week, I reviewed the crossover volume "H'el on Earth", which includes four of the same issues collected in this trade paperback. To avoid a recap of that material, this review will just cover my thoughts on the other four issues.Appropriately enough, Supergirl, Vol. 3: Sanctuary picks up immediately where Vol. 2, Girl in the World left off, puts Kara's exploration of her new secret base on hiatus to follow Superman and Superboy into battle against the Kryptonian supervillain H'el, and...
If I was reviewing this edition ONLY, I would give it one star. If I was reviewing the story ONLY, I would give it five. Unfortunately, you can't buy either this volume or the Superman/Superboy/Supergirl crossover graphic novel H'El On Earth, since Supergirl Vol. 3 includes issues that came both before the crossover and after. That's all that frustrated me, though.I didn't like Power Girl, but I enjoyed her interactions with Kara. Kara is by far my favorite superhero and I still really sympathiz...
It's a hard decision to make, placing a star rating on this volume of Supergirl. In some ways, it's the best yet, combining Kara's resourcefulness with her desire to be alone and safe, with some well-intentioned comedy and a fun meeting with Power Girl. On the other, it's a jumble of stories which aren't complete, making the impact of what should have been a great emotional arc for Kara hollow and a little pointless.I wondered, in my reviews of Batman: The Night of the Owls and Nightwing, Vol. 2...
