I just read the Future State comic Kara Zor-El Superwoman issue 1. I was hopeful that this would be a nice mature Supergirl story, unlike the last storyline for the Supergirl comic. Who came up with the punk Supergirl as part of the Batman That Laughs storyline? Yes, I can understand the storyline sold, but to have Kara corrupted like this? Oh, and she wasn't cured in her own comic. You had to go to an entirely different series for that after teasing it in an issue. Thank DC Comics for nothing. Too much crossover crap for this old fart! Why have a character's series if a major(?)storyline ends in another comic? Well, you didn't get my money for that!
Well , as expected her series ended with a whimper. I wonder how many fans were driven away by the punk SG storyline? Again, I had hopes, not high, but hopes with this new comic. Now for spoiler time!
Spoiler
We come into this comic with Kara on the Moon, seeming to run a colony for misfit aliens, lamenting the passing of Krypto. We get another new alien girl show up with some Parasite like abilities(sucks Kara's powers for a bit), and after getting things sorted out, Kara takes her under her wing to teach her how to use her powers. We see the locals, and they don't seem very approving of Kara. Upon further reading, we find out Kara left Earth because she could never get rid of her anger issues?!
Really DC? You write her like crap in her latest incarnation, and wonder why she has issues? Superman almost treats her like a pariah, her adoptive parents treat her like an intelligence assets, and her adoptive Mother is revealed to be a part of Leviathan! Yup, I'd be pissed off too!
I just hate that DC made this version of Supergirl into a loser IMHO!

My 2 cents.
