I was under the impression that she just went off to find herself.<br><br>Maybe I should read it again. <p></p><i></i>

[sensitiveandimportant]

you guys actually read supergirl......HUH ? <p></p><i></i>

[MykGerard]

in the beginning of the comic she is told that her existence is a paradox and she must not exist or the universe will be destroyed... I think she didn't want to admit to Clark that she was dead. <p></p><i></i>

[MykGerard]

well you see there is a story to that....<br><br>The director to Ninja Turtles brought out this big box of comics and said take them... So all of us there were like "Awesome!! Free comics"!!! so we shredded through them... I was kinda late... so I got stuck with the Supergirls... and yunno how it is.. you get sucked into a storyline because you like looking at the drawings of the hot chicks...hehe... yeah...and.. umm...<br><br>hmm... yeah.. uh.. I'm a loser. lol <p></p><i></i>

I kept tabs on the last few issues of the series, mostly to see how they handled the latest entry in DC's quest to restore/reintroduce Pre-Crisis characters & situations.<br><br>Myk, if you read closely, Linda (Supergirl) was told that if she didn't return to her REAL home (ie, in-continuity Earth) and let Kara Zor-El live out her life on the Pre-Crisis Earth, then Kara wouldn't be there to die in the battle with the Anti-Monitor when the Crisis was happening, and thus all alternate-Earths would have been destroyed, as well as the entire multiverse. <br><br>So Linda went home, and sent Kara back where she belonged. Her letter to Clark at the end was saying goodbye, NOT because she'd died (you could see her writing the letter after she'd gotten home), but because through some unexplained revelation while battling that big evil guy, she realized she had to give up being Supergirl and find out who she, Linda Danvers, after all she'd been through, really was. Kara Zor-El went back to her life as Superman's Cousin on another Earth, and died wearing a silly 80s-style Supergirl costume complete w/ headband.<br><br>Plus Linda had to resign, so this new Cir-El Supergirl, Lois & Clark's supposed daughter, can take over in mainline DCU. <br><br>Recap: Kara dead. Linda alive. Balance of time/space restored, Crisis happens as it was supposed to. Linda retires. Cir-El new Supergirl. And Linda & pre-Crisis Clark's daughter Ariella surfs the spaceways in some lost facet of Hypertime.<br><br>Now I'm gonna go move into my parents' basement & start eating Cheetos 24/7. Between this & the X2 talk, my inner geek's gaining tremendous strength. Raarr.

The new one, yes... blue cape, dark blue/black 1-piece swimsuit, gloves, boots... built more like Superman, or a teenage version anyway, makin her look awfully creepy in several panels (like when she greets Lois as "Mommy!" and has these bulging neck muscles... ooog... maybe it's just the artist) <p>Keith<br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.toonimator.com">www.toonimator.com</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></p><i></i>

Hey it's wortst than the "young and the restless"! <p></p><i></i>

[MykGerard]

I figured the old supergirl leaving new supergirl coming thing...<br><br><br>so Keith... I thought those futuresmiths just made the new supergirl using superman's Dna.. not that she was his and Lois's daughter.. <p></p><i></i>

[Toonimator]

well that's what I thought, too, because that's all they've shown. They got some schmuck to get a hair from Superman, and next thing you know they're welcoming Supergirl back from the future. Could be she's a direct clone of Supes, and they implanted these memories & made her think Lois was her mom, or maybe....<br><br>Too early to say. Too little information out there. <p>Keith<br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.toonimator.com">www.toonimator.com</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></p><i></i>
