The breakneck pace of Grant Morrison’s run on ACTION COMICS continues as the Superman of the present day must team up with suspiciously different versions of the Legion of Super-Heroes to save the jeans-wearing Superman of five years ago!

Superboy wants answers about his Kryptonian heritage, and he intends to track down Superman to get them – unfortunately, Supergirl’s going to find him first, and she’s horrified by what she sees! Their encounter will leave her even more troubled by life on Earth, and leave him wondering why even his own people think he’s a monster!





SUPERGIRL #6
Written by MICHAEL GREEN and MIKE JOHNSON
Art and cover by MAHMUD ASRAR
On sale FEBRUARY 15 • 32 pg, FC, $2.99 US RATED T
A powerful new alien foe bent on the conquest of mankind is crushing New York City beneath her boot heel. But where is Supergirl, who led her to Earth in the first place? Why, she’s trapped on a meteorite that’s plummeting straight into a blue sun. And she’s lost her powers! So, good luck, NYC!

Also to go with the Supergirl comic. Michael Green in a interview with newsarama confirm that the villain not "Maxima" after all.

"And then issue #5 is another new villain. I think there may be some confusion because an early solicitation had her named "Maxima." But this is a new character that we had thought about naming Maxima because we loved the name, even though that character had perished in the previous universe. But we're not using the name Maxima anymore. I don't want to say what she's called now. We'll leave that a secret for now.

But this character is new and plays a very integral role in the secrets of how Kara got to Earth."

Well, that Superman cover sure is...suggestive.

[icon_uk]

Again, I hear "Je T'aime" in the background and the whole context changes...

sup naughty tentacle

[thanekos]

I'm going to guess Minima, just for the heck of it.

"The breakneck pace of Grant Morrison’s run on ACTION COMICS continues as the Superman of the present day must ... save the jeans-wearing Superman of five years ago!"

That. Is. Amazing.

[littlepunkryo]

Ya know I'm really loving the art on ALL the Superman books a lot. Especially Supergirl's, though. I don't really know the artist but I enjoy his style a lot.

[sinisterlink]

February seems to have a "Supergirl fights with everyone" theme going for it.

[harpers_child]

that first superman cover is a bit ... tentacles there are tentacles between his legs. how is this!? where is the comics code when you want it?

[pyrotwilight]

"must team up with suspiciously different versions of the Legion of Super-Heroes"

I think my head hurts just to even think about the Legion(s) playing any part in this nuDC. I mean didn't the new Legion of Superheroes #1 specifically say time travel couldn't be done to the past due to the Flashpoint effect? With the only exception being the Legion Lost members who were trying to travel apparently just before it kicked in? It. I. Gah.

They just want to drive us permanently around the bend. No other explanation makes sense. :/

[auggie18]

I know this is bad, but this has made me start expecting Superboy and Supergirl to start making out.

"He's a monster, but maybe I can change him...


...with my tongue!"


I don't know, really I don't.

[eyz]

So..not a (extremely) redesigned Maxima? I'm fine with both options :P

So, in Valentine's day month, all the Supers are beating the c*** of each other?

[blackruzsa]

I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going.

ALSO, I SWEAR I'VE SEEN THAT LAST COVER BEFORE. I don't mean to accuse anyone of anything, but that exact posing has been used before... I just can't place when....

[q99]

That approximate pose is one I think I've seen a few times.

It might be a purposeful reference (not that I can remember the original either).

[blackruzsa]

Perhaps... still, it bugs me so much. It's not that it just LOOKS like something I've seen before... it's like it IS when looking at it again.... eh, but anyways...
