Supergirl Coming to CBS TV as Series!

Comics, TV, Music, and Movies!

I recently saw the trailer for the upcoming “Supergirl” TV series that will premiere on CBS later this year. Even though there are things that the critics don’t like or aren’t sure about regarding this vision of Supergirl, I liked it.

It’s not perfect, but I had a lot of fun reading it.

The main villain for volume two is the Riddler.
He’s riddling away while blowing up various locations. Not the best re-imagining I’ve ever seen, but Johns does a decent…
