Supergirl Annual 5, and Lane family stuff
Photobucket



Some poor NPC is wandering around the mountains and gets hit by Purple Lightning, which brings Superwoman/Lucy Lane back to life somehow.

Lucy remembers her life, and feels that she's always been in her sister's shadow, in particular when it comes to a relationship with their father.

Her dad apparently died, so Lucy joined the army, almost as a way of committing suicide. But it turned out she was good at it. And then...






A new uniform, one he wants her to wear. The Superwoman uniform, capable of giving its wearer Kryptonian-like superpowers. So in a way, Amazons Attack gave us Superwoman.

I'm rather 'meh' about all of this, sadly.

Is it my imagination or is the suit powered by the Amazonian purple healing ray?

It's Supergirl v5 Annual #1, not Supergirl Annual #5.

The horrific battle claimed her knees. They can't bend anymore. It's just planks of wood under those pants.

Either that, or neither the inker, the colorist, or the editor mentioned how unbelievably creepy that panel is.

Wait, so hang on a minute...

Lucy Lane is Superwoman? And it was the suit that gave her Kryptonian superpowers?

I actually didn't see that coming. But man, you blink around here and you're months behind everybody else. Darn it.

the worst part of this issue wasn't in this story though. It was in the main story where Red Kryptonite was used to identify Kryptonians.

If the Operation Patriot people weren't already stupid enough.

Randomly giving people antheads on the street is probably pretty entertaining though.

Greek society based Amazons wouldn't have dressed like that.......

I'm not much of a History buff but the costumes don't look all that Egyptian too me either.

Yeah, that's how they looked in Amazons Attack.

Ummm... weren't the Bana skilled in using modern firearms? And the Paradise Island Amazons had access to advanced technology too.

It's Shamazons. Nothing it touches retains logic or sanity.

I was rather hoping we could all get on and repress AA in peace.

Ack! Post button too soon!

That should be "I was rather hoping we could all get on and repress AA in peace. Because the damn thing is now tainting this by association, for no good reason. She could have been wounded at any military action, but no, it had to be fighting the Shams."

Well, it contributes to her motivation for disliking Kara, I guess?

It's been so long since anyone's mentioned it... I had really thought they'd finally realized what an atrocious clusterfuck the whole affair was and tacitly moved on. Guess not.

This pretty much retconned Lucy/Ron and little Sam, godammit.

According to the editorial, they're just separated.

Why? Why? Why does she switch from "strong, capable soldier" to "porn model" (both the hug and the last panel) AS SOON AS HER DADDY SHOWS UP?

Brain bleach...where did I put the brain bleach...
