GLENDALE, CA and BURBANK, CA, February 20, 2025 – DC’s Summer of Superman publishing initiative welcomes (back) the Maiden of Might to the publisher’s roster of DC All In titles with the debut of Supergirl, an all-new DC All In series, written and illustrated by celebrated storyteller Sophie Campbell (Wet Moon, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles).
Kara Zor-El has always been a key member of the Super-Family in Metropolis, but Campbell is taking Supergirl in a new direction among familiar surroundings as she gets back to her roots in the town of Midvale. But returning to her hometown after so many years away already presents some challenges: there’s already another Supergirl there, protecting the town and saving the day. Readers will have to check out the debut issue on May 14 to find out if the real Supergirl can discover the identity of the impostor and stop them before they steal her very life!
“I came up in the comics industry doing mostly graphic novels that I wrote and drew myself, so doing the same with Supergirl feels like I’m returning to my storytelling roots,” said Supergirl writer/artist Sophie Campbell. “My main touchstones to Kara Zor-El were the stories and the wild costumes from the 70’s, the 1984 Supergirl movie, and the CW show, which I was a huge fan of. In creating this version of Supergirl, I’ll be drawing on some of those influences as the series unfolds.”
With a new series, Supergirl also gets a new costume, designed by bestselling cover artist Stanley “Artgerm” Lau. Supergirl’s fresh look will be spotlighted on the main cover by series writer/artist Campbell and a card stock and foil variant by Artgerm, as well as variant covers by Bilquis Evely (Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow), Pablo Villalobos, Joshua Middleton and W. Scott Forbes.
“Having done artwork for video games, I’m pretty familiar with creating character designs and costumes,” said Artgerm. “In designing a new costume for Supergirl, I wanted to create something fresh while keeping the key elements intact. I adopted the theme of ‘sporty and fun, but packs a punch,’ and incorporated those elements in the costume; I also made changes to the chest symbol to give it a more dynamic spin. Sophie’s captured the look perfectly, and I can’t wait for readers to see it.”
