I took a look at the write up about vol. 19 and had to grimace:



That 'secret marriage' thing is one episode they could loose and it would not bother me (or many from what I understand) at all!

I thought that was just...dumb.  especially since it seemed to just come out of nowhere.  It just didn't fit in the slightest with anything.

If the Supergirl Archives make it all the way to Vol. 19, that secret marriage story will be far from the only dumb story that's reprinted. (Not that it would stop me from buying every single volume, of course.)

Of course :)  I can always skip that story :)

I sincerely millitate for the view that fandom has voted that dumb "secret marriage" story OUT of the Cannon.  

After all, it happened *AFTER* Kara's sacrifice, and *INSIDE* the destruction and re-making of the DC Multi-Verse.  How about we all just pack this away to an unstable pocket variation in the collapse of space and time?  A mirage, caused by the chaos and warped energies of the collapse.  

How about we just throw the whole darned story down a " Chronosynclastic Infundibulum " ... or perhaps the result of a " Negative Vacuum Emboitment " ?  You'll all have to pardon my technical spelling, if I've misremembered -- for years, I thought Dr Who was saying it was called a Charged Vacuum *EVOUTMENT*, which is quite a different thing from an Emboitment ... well ... I think.

Besides: if Kara really *did* marry - secretly or not - it would merit *at least* a jam-packed, Super double issue ... if not a lenghthy mini-series.  And we'd all have to have some more sympathy for her husband-to-be!  Who is he?  How does he rate over Vril-Dox (Brainiac-5) ... or Jerro of Atlantis ... or Lex Luthor, for that matter???  

( Not the Pre-Crisis Lex, of course.)

Kara's secret husband is closed and lost inside a permanant Time Loop, as far as I'm concerned.

Hello everyone! This is my first post on this forum.

I've clicked on that link and I'm not sure what to think. I've recently bought The Supergirl Archive Volumes 1 and 2, published in 2001 and 2003 which for me means reading some stories I remember from years ago when they were reprinted, as well as stories I've never read before. Now there's this site promising Volumes 3-19, but there's no real indication of when they'll be published. Based on the previous 2 volumes, The Supergirl Archive Volume 3 will be published in 2005, then another volume every other year. I'm not sure I'll live to see this. Does anyone actually know when they'll be published?

At this moment, I'm very interested in getting hold of some Supergirl comics set during the era when Linda was a TV reporter in San Francisco and Nasthalia was her biggest enemy. I'd really love to see some more scans of 80 page or 100 page Giants on this site or anywhere, but I can hardly believe there are any here, because of Copyright problems. At the moment, any old comics I bought are in a large storage container in southwest England, along with a whole load of other stuff, but an ex Landlord of mine stole some of them, although I think there was only one edition featuring Supergirl in my place at the time. This means I can't scan any of them at the moment.

I'm curios about this too. Anyabody have any reliable info as to when volume 3 comes out?

I loved Vol.2!

If I hear anything I'll let everyone here know.

The marriage thing was something they probably thought they could do since Supergirl was a goner anyway.  Dumb idea, but that's the kind of thing that was coming out at the time.

I'm beginning to think the message which started this topic is a joke. I asked at The Forbidden Planet sci fi department store in London and they didn't know. Do I have to wait until the year 2043 to collect the set?

Pol-El, these were "proposed" covers created by a very talented Supergirl fan -- hopefully to help spur DC into action?   :wink:

So far there's only been two volumes released.  So far no word on a third, but Supergirl fans are patient.  After all, it took nearly TWENTY YEARS to get a "Kara Zor-El" back, right?   :wink:

What a phony! I've been looking forward to them for months now. It's almost as bad as saying "Hey, someone who looks like Supergirl told me she's in love with you. Here's her phone number". I'll have to go mad on eBay or some online second hand comic dealer to get what I want now.

I think the only way to speed up the Supergirl archives is to push the upcoming Supergirl comic into the top ten that DC publishes.
