Host Anthony Desiato welcomes writer Sterling Gates to the podcast to dig into his classic 2008-2010 “Supergirl” run with artist Jamal Igle and the sprawling “New Krypton” Saga!
They discuss the original making of the New Krypton Saga, from its initial pitch to reworked ending; Sterling’s re-mapping of approximately 130 issues for the new line of omnibus collections to reflect the intended reading order; his approach to Kara and her supporting cast, including Lana Lang, Cat Grant, & Lucy Lane; where he intended to take Kara & co. if he had stayed on the “Supergirl” title; his “All-Star Supergirl” dream project; and what the character means to him personally.
