Comic Book Review: Superman/Supergirl: Maelstrom #1
Since last week's episode of Smallville featured the teamup of Clark and Supergirl, I thought it would be fitting to review the first issue of the new Superman/Supergirl mini-series. The Smallville episode was good, I hope that this story is as good. When Supergirl looks up, more cars are being thrown at her. Supergirl bats them aside and demands to know who is doing this.

By namtab29@comcast.net (rob!) What I also find unusual about the mug is that there's no Superman--pretty shocking for a piece of merchandise featuring a group of DC heroes. To see Aquaman on there instead of the Man of Steel is a welcome surprise--I definitely would've bought this mug had I seen it for sale.

Jimmy is horrified and exclaims that Darkseid is controlling him. That Jimmy has absolutely no control over his powers. Darkseid tells Jimmy that he can now watch his best friend die. Personally, if Didio really felt the need for a female villain to compliment Superman-Prime then I would have much preferred that Supergirl play this role rather than Mary Marvel.
