Despite the implication of the title, only four episodes in this volume actually come from the monthly Supergirl comic (from issues 6-9) – the remainder of the book is handy backgrounder and comes from various Superman, Superman/Batman, Justice League and Justice Society comics. It also, rather confusingly, spans a time period both before, during and one year after DC Comics’ recent Infinite Crisis series. For a potted recent history of the Supergirl character, it’s probably right on the nose; but if you haven’t been following the interwoven complexities of the DC Comics universe of late, the back-story is unlikely to make much sense.
