“Chapter 12”

The opening felt like a three or four pages had been left out, and the jump to in medias res doesn’t work well to start. With so much on the line, for the story to take so much room to become about Alex Danvers is a questionable move. That the mission was classified now seems foolish, as it would have been more professional to terminate Alex altogether. The problem with such plot devices, “the hidden secret,” for lack of a better description, is that unless somewhat jarring, the secret hidden is nearly always of a soap operatic nature. It’s fine to take the focus off of Supergirl, but this portion reads closer to a conclusion rather than a penultimate chapter. A poor insertion into an otherwise stellar series.

I wish there would be more quality and consistency where the art on titles like these was concerned. Bryan Q. Miller was doing some good stuff on the Smallville Season 11 but the art was all over the place through most of the run.
