Supergirl by Peter David Omnibus Vol. 1

A bold supernatural reinvention of Supergirl, as a troubled young woman merges with a dying hero and becomes something entirely new, collected in a sweeping omnibus from acclaimed writer Peter David.

Linda Danvers thought she understood her place in the world...until the moment she merged with a dying Supergirl and was transformed into something entirely new. Neither fully human nor purely Kryptonian, she must navigate life in a small town while grappling with powers tied to forces far beyond Earth.

Under the guidance of acclaimed writer Peter David (The Incredible Hulk, Young Justice), this groundbreaking run blends superhero action with supernatural mythology, exploring themes of redemption, identity, and belonging. From demonic encounters to alliances with heroes like Young Justice, Supergirl’s journey becomes a powerful and deeply personal evolution of one of DC’s most iconic characters.
