Wait, Mon-El is dead? What?

I really want to see Kara and Thara ~~kiss and~~ make up. I'd love to see some of Kara's interactions with her best friend from Kypton, and their relationship seemed really sweet prior to Zor-El's death. ~~Plus, they would make an adorable couple~~

First page, fourth panel: Thara looks really, really pretty there.

Babootch? Really? I'm totally gonna call someone that at school tomorrow.

What kind of justice would Thara want for Reactron then, I'm wondering? Earth justice? It was the US Government that sent orders for Reactron to kill Zor-El (or Supergirl) in the first place. I have a hard time believing that someone like Thara, seeped in Kryptonian history and culture, would not want the murderer of her "father" brought before Kryptonian justice. Kal-El wouldn't because he views Earth as his home.. In the beginning Kara maybe wouldn't have but Thara, who served as Zor-El's security and failed to save him, objecting to handing Reactron over to New Krypton? I ain't buying.

But then the fickle Earthlings and the cardboard-villian Sam Lane have done something I never thought possible when "New Krypton" started - root for Allura.

	Wow. These people have very, very dramatic and important conversations while sitting in rooms filled with very old-fashioned wallpaper. I have no idea what's going on in this comic. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	The group being frame for mon-el suppose death. In the beginning they were transported to Metropolis, got attack by the Science Police. Supergirl suggest hiding out at her loft in paris, after a while about options to deal with there situation. A argument got started about Allura and Reactron. :) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Why can I just not make myself care about this? Maybe if Chris was a little boy I would be less annoyed by it... Because this way just looks like some catfight between two angry hot women with the rational calm man trying to break them up. Oh god, Comics, I hate you so much right now...

That's just proof Chris needs to turn in his man-card. Union rules on girl fights clearly state that you do NOT break them up. You either A) Pull up a chair/get some popcorn; B) Guide them towards mud or oil (or dump aforementioned substance on them.

Chris Kent fails as a Man!

Chris is creepy the way Billy Batson is creepy. He is physically an adult, but didn't earn his way into it by aging normally, so he's still mentally a kid, which makes his scenes with Thara very icky.
And, once again, I feel that the 'Thara shirked her duties in protecting Zor-El' was inserted to make the "Lois accuses Kara of purposely killing Lucy' more palatable, because Kara and Kal were RIGHT THERE when Zor died, and didn't stop Reatron either. Whole thing makes Kara a 'babootch'.

To be fair Billy is now 17 DCU-age and he's had girlfriends (Stargirl) his own age and he goes to school etc. Chris really should by all accounts still have the mind of the 4-5 year old that Lois and Clark took into their home. Aging has given him a hormone boost so his attraction to Thara is normal but HER feelings for him are what I find a bit creepy since the first time we saw them together he was only 10 physically.

I really think you're reading waaaayyy too into this.

Yeah they're two attractive women, but it's pretty shallow to make out a story taht's prettyu interesting (Kara's anger and Thara, Thara's religous ideals and it's implications with her friendship with Kara) as two hot girls fighting.

I mean let's use that test for other comics.

Batgirl is a hot girl in spandex hitting people, Supergirl is a hot girl flying around trying to please her mom, Blackest Night is a zombie movie with hot girls getting killed and World of New Krypton is an alien leadign other aliens.

	You stupid babootch Wait, can we get a capitalization ruling? Is "babootch" a proper noun? Should it be "Babootch"? I'm gonna use that in conversation one day. If nothing else, it will confuse my opponent. That's always fun. (Reply to this)

	I know I've seen "babootch" used in either Silver Age Krypton stories or the Legion, so it's not a new term, but it is a fun one. (Reply to this)
