This one-shot features three stories that celebrate different aspects of Kara Zor-El and remind readers why she’s earned such a loyal following over the years. While she’s often mentioned alongside Superman, this issue does a nice job showing that Supergirl has always been her own character with her own voice, struggles, and strengths.
Some characters disappear for years and return feeling completely out of place. That isn’t the case with Concrete: Stars Over Sand #1. Reading this issue feels like catching up with an old friend who hasn’t changed in all the ways that matter.
D-Riders #1 introduces Anaya, a woman whose life is already full of responsibilities before fate takes a sharp turn. Between caring for her parents and dealing with a job she clearly doesn’t love, she’s carrying a lot on her shoulders. Then Eris, the Goddess of Chaos, enters the picture and everything changes.
Young Hellboy: Thrilling Sky Adventures #1 is a reminder that not every comic needs world-ending stakes to be entertaining. Written by Mike Mignola and Tom Sniegoski, this issue delivers a fun pulp adventure centered on Scarlett Santiago, the Sky Devil, as she joins forces with the mysterious Ghost Leopard for a dangerous mission filled with monsters, mystery, and airborne action.
Some post-apocalyptic comics throw readers directly into chaos and spend the rest of the issue explaining how the world collapsed. The Hab #1 takes a different approach. It gives you just enough information to understand the situation while intentionally leaving massive questions hanging over everything
