Be here to find out in this 4-issue miniseries from rising star writer Sterling Gates (SUPERGIRL) and artist Julian Lopez.

Listed here because Sterling Gate is writing. At SDCC, ‘Gates discussed the new World’s Finest mini-series he’s writing, where each issue will team-up a character from the “new” Batman cast and the “new” Superman cast.’ I would assume Supergirl will be in one of the issues.
