Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow #1

Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow

by Tom King, Bilquis Evely (Artist, Inker), Mat Lopes (Colorist)

Kara Zor-El has seen some epic adventures over the years, but finds her life without meaning or purpose. Here she is, a young woman who saw her planet destroyed and was sent to Earth to protect a baby cousin who ended up not needing her. What was it all for? Wherever she goes, people only see her through the lens of Superman’s fame. Just when Supergirl thinks she’s had enough, everything changes. An alien girl seeks her out for a vicious mission. Her world has been destroyed, and the bad guys responsible are still out there. She wants revenge, and if Supergirl doesn’t help her, she’ll do it herself, whatever the cost. Now a Kryptonian, a dog, and an angry, heartbroken child head out into space on a journey that will shake them to their very core.

This was pleasant and engaging. Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow follows Supergirl—alongside an alien child—on a cosmic journey, weaving together themes of justice, vengeance and resolve.

In this first chapter though, it focuses on Ruthye’s perspective as she tries to go on a dangerous mission. I picked this up mainly because I was drawn to Bilquis Evely’s art. Needless to say, every page felt like stepping into another world. Regarding the characters, Supergirl remains a badass, as we all know. Ruthye, on the other hand, is fiercely resolute, and her innocence never fails to come through—which I appreciate. After all, I did not want to read about a kid seeking vengeance while dismissing her child-like behavior just to portray a strong-willed persona.

Overall, a nice introduction to a promising story, but not entirely remarkable.

4 stars

"I'm Supergirl.
Do you think I give a $#!%% about
arrows and swords?"

[James DeSantis · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was a decent start. I love most of King's stuff but this didn't blow me away. I did like his supergirl and she's a badass, especially the end. But not in love with the world we're on but we'll see how it goes.

A 3 out of 5.

An unbelievably average start for a King mini series...

[Gordon · Rating 1 out of 5]

Please, never ever put a piss-yellow-coloured hue over a whole comic book. Every single page looked urine soaked and bland. The art, was solid, but you can't tell that because there's this horrible tinge of yellow dowsed over it all. The story itself is meh, and reads like Cloonan's Wonder Woman a bit, just replace talking Squirrels with Krypto, and that's basically all there is to it. I don't get Tom King at all; His stories aren't superhero stories, they're depressing wannabe-edgy Vertigo books from 20 years ago.

First comic down and many more to go! As a lover of supergirl I thought it would be in my best interest to start reading with a comic book that aligned with her story.

This was a very calm/quick and easy start but I which this could’ve been longer even though it’s the first out of eight

3.5/5 Stars - Chapter One: "Men, Women and Dogs"

[Shawn Ingle · Rating 4 out of 5]

I have had very little exposure to the Supergirl character. I got this because Tom King is writing it. It's fairly wordy (not necessarily in a bad way) and it reads, looks and feels like epic science fiction/fantasy. Unexpected but a pleasant surprise.

Estoy enamorada del arte de esta serie de Supergirl. La historia parece que va a ser sencillita pero es un lujazo disfrutar del arte de Bilquis Evely y Mat Lopes.

[Myles Likes Tacos and Rice · Rating 4 out of 5]

As a fantasy geek, I'm digging this take on Supergirl. The art is pretty cool and its got this TOR publications vibe to it. However it would be nice if they had her new 50s housewife outfit in this title, but thats just a personal preference. Also Hungover Supergirl is WGW !

[Rafaela · Rating 5 out of 5]

After finishing all the issues, all I can say is that I HIGHLY, I REPEAT, I HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SERIES.

[Centli Garcés Buendia · Rating 5 out of 5]

Really satisfying to see an omnipotent character as supergirl in this new world with new rules about her powers.
I’m definitely going to read the whole mini series.
Love the fact that supergirl is with Krypto :)

Mat Lopes is a genius, I loved every frame of this

[Kim · Rating 1 out of 5]

I really wanted to enjoy this comic but I just didn’t. I’m new to comics and this story was recommended for people getting into comics but I just found the story boring.

I was confused on why Ruthye was the narrator of the story and why the story was more focused on her than Supergirl. I get Supergirl was trying to teach Ruthye a lesson but I barely knew Supergirl as a character I felt like knew nothing about her by the end of the story.

I didn’t like Ruthye’s dialogue. She went on and on and I found myself wishing it would just end already.

I’m also just tired of the whole “killing is wrong.” This dude went to multiple different planets and committed mass genocide and felt no remorse and in the end they decided to show him mercy. And what happened to the other aliens that joined him in destroying planets they just walked away scot-free.

I will say the only thing I did enjoy was the art style. It was beautiful and I loved starting at the art work.

kara zor-el you are so loved

[Benja Calderon · Rating 4 out of 5]

La celebración de sus 21 años no sale como Supergirl espera... todo parte cuando el padre de la joven Ruthye es asesinado a sangre fría por el deshonorable Krem

Todo parecería poder resolverse de manera fácil... pero esperando disfrutar los placeres de las bebidas fuertes, Kara ha escogido un planeta con sol rojo, lo que significa que sus poderes kriptonianos no están en su mejor nivel... ¿podrá hacer frente a los despiadados que quieren detener la cruzada de Ruthye


King plantea un inicio interesante, incluso diciéndonos el desenlace quiero seguir leyendo... y el trabajo de Bilquis Evely, una delicia visual

Admittedly I’m a really new dcu fan and this is technically my second comic read ever, so I don’t think my opinion means much 😅

I really liked it. Again, I’ll admit that I’m reading this because I want to see the movie, but I thought it was really enjoyable. It’s very very eye catching and Ruthye’s over professionalism when faced with Kara’s messiness is fun to follow. The set up is also fairly simple, and it’s refreshing to see a revenge plot spearheaded by female characters. I wish we have some introduction as to what planet Ruthye lives on, but I could just be lacking in knowledge when it comes to dc lore. I’ll let it go, it doesn’t bother me much. I have to admit, I struggle reading fight scenes in panel form so I had to go over a few pages, but not a big deal.

From the perspective of someone who’s never read any other comics about Supergirl, Superman, or any other heroes other than Batman, I didn’t find my lack of knowledge to be a drawback. I mean, you don’t typically pick up a comic with a hero plastered on the cover without knowing a little bit about who they are, but it also didn’t really go into her deep lore, which is nice. New comic reader friendly, I’d say. I haven’t read the other issues yet, but I’m looking forward to it!

Aunque me gusta que la historia se inicie de forma arbitraria con esta niña en busca de venganza topándose con una errática Supergirl por casualidad, hay que destacar que este número de presentación se me ha atragantado muchísimo. Ya no es solo mi nula experiencia previa con el personaje de Supergirl (aunque de buenas a primeras parece que esta miniserie no va a indagar de más en toda la idiosincrasia del personaje), me ha resultado una presentación a trompicones y sin gracia ni acierto (ya el ver cómo el bárbaro huye en la nave espacial... ). Algo que a un guionista tan bien posicionado como Tom King no deberíamos pasarle.

Bueno, la cosa puede remontar fácilmente. Parece que King quiere montarse una road movie de Sword and Planet y eso como mínimo va a ser gustoso de leer.

Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, by Tom King and Bilquis Evely (DC)

I picked this issue up at a local comic shop just after the run received a 2022 Eisner nomination for “Best Limited Series”. The TPB isn’t due out until 7/25/2022. I’ve had some “ups and downs” with writer Tom King but respect his ceiling is pretty high when he’s on his game (e.g. “Mister Miracle”). I wasn’t familiar with Artist (Bilquis Evely) but thought the art was very appealing throughout. The plot was pretty simple/straightforward. The characters and motivation were good (not necessarily great). I definitely enjoyed the first issue well enough to seek out the rest and give it a real go.

[Colin Post · Rating 4 out of 5]

I absolutely love the tone that this first issue establishes — it’s got the feel of a classic pulp sci-if tale imbued with contemporary sensibilities. This really comes through in the writing, contrasting Ruthye’s eloquent narration with Supergirl’s wry, brusque, often profane dialogue. This is fitting for the clash of cultures trope at the center of the story, as Supergirl feels out of place in this feudal far-off planet.

Plus the art is so, so stunning. Bilquis Evely is officially my new favorite comic artist.

[Sergi Oset · Rating 3 out of 5]

Prometedor inici amb una Kara Zor vulnerable que es fica en problemes quan ella només vol anar de festa. La mà de Tom King es deixa veure i l’entorn de món de fantasia èpica queda molt ben detallat pels llapis de Bilquis Evely. Krypto no molesta.
Tot i que encara és aviat per saber-ho, no sembla que “Supergirl: la mujer del mañana” hagi d’arribar al nivell de les recents “Strange Adventures” o “Rorschach”, però si arriba a “Batman i Catwoman” o “Superman, arriba en el cielo” em dono per ben pagat.

[Brianna · Rating 5 out of 5]

I’ve been wanting to read this comic because I started watching CW’s Supergirl and fell in love with Kara Zor-el, and true to my fangirl hyperfixation tendencies, I want to know and read everything I can about Kara, and this comic is SO GOOD. Kara is such a comfort character for me and I love how she’s portrayed here.
I’m so excited to see how the DCU adapts this work into a future Supergirl movie.

And yes, I’ll be binge reading every issue of Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow for the rest of the night.

[Nabiila · Rating 3 out of 5]

“But until that day, I never saw anyone so unafraid of death that they understood in their heart and belly a simple and perfect truth—
There was no one alive stronger than they.”

Honestly started reading Woman of Tomorrow because some random person on Twitter recommended someone else to read it before watching Superman (2025). I haven’t seen the movie yet but I’m excited for Milly Alcock’s Supergirl.

This was a decent introduction to Supergirl’s character. Enough hook to make me keep reading (considering I’m not a big comic reader). And the art is lovely.

[Kyle Gilbert · Rating 5 out of 5]

What could be better than an epic journey mixed with the superhero elements that attract us to comics in the first place? For fans of Tolkien-like journeys and superheroes, this comic will be your bread and butter. Learn about joy, kindness, empathy, and revenge as you set sail across the universe with superwoman, and enjoy the beautiful artwork that fills the pages. Whether it’s the seriousness or the whimsy, there’s something in this comic that’ll truly move you.

Read the Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow #1 Superman Day Special Edition

This first issue brought in a story that looks like an isekai adventure for Supergirl on a planet that's populated by Conan the Barbarian types.
