Supergirl #40
The tagline "Burn the Infection!" sets the tone perfectly for this intense 2020 chapter, and the cover by Joe Bennett and Alan Patrick delivers on that promise — a visibly tormented Supergirl, dark-eyed and screaming, hurls herself through a massive solar explosion, her cape and hair whipping wildly as waves of fire surge around her. It's a striking image of a hero pushed to her absolute limit, and with Jody Houser closing out the "I'm the Bad Guy" arc alongside artist Rachael Stott and colorist Cris Peter, this finale feels like a genuine reckoning for Kara Zor-El.
