I don't read Supergirl and I doubt many other people are. She seems to be getting a really bad deal at DC right now. I've seen the covers and it seems like they're drawn by someone who has never seen a real girl in his life. She's got this strange, stretchy waist thing going on which just looks disturbing. And seems that inside the book she's being written as not particularly heroic. Not really the aspirational model DC should be giving young women (or young men for that matter).
In connection with this
dryponder has started up a
drawing meme for Supergirl and there are some neat variations on the character. Here's my version:
I've stayed pretty close to the original outfit here. I especially wanted to give Kara some degree of modesty by covering up her stomach and giving her some tights. Plus I gave her the pigtails both to make her look cute and so that her hair doesn't get in her face while fighting villains. Finally she's wearing gloves as they would be handy if she came across kryptonite that she had to dispose of.
