About the series
In Supergirl: Cosmic Adventures in the 8th Grade, writer Landry Q. Walker and artist Eric Jones reimagine Kara Zor-El as a young alien adjusting to the trials of middle school on Earth. This six-issue DC series, launched in 2009, blends classic Silver Age whimsy with heartfelt coming-of-age humor, as Supergirl navigates super-powered schoolyard rivalries, cosmic threats, and the universal awkwardness of being the new kid. It’s a charming, all-ages take on the Girl of Steel that captures the wonder of her early days without losing the warmth of her character.
