Summary
During the destruction of Krypton, Zoe-El and his wife Alura evacuate for Argo City, where Zor-El activates a force field that prevents planet from being completely destroyed.
Eight years later, Alura gives birth to Kara, but later succumbs to radiation produced by a mineral known as Kryptonite. Zor-El decides to send Kara and her dog Krypto to Earth, who after meeting her cousin Clark Kent, tries to adjust to pastures new.
While off-world celebrating her 23rd birthday, Kara meets Ruthye, who asks for help to avenge the death of her family at the hands of Brigand leader Krem, but she's not interested.
Krem shows up with his crew of Mad Max rejects and when Krypto tries to stop them stealing Kara's spaceship, he's shot with a poisonous dart.
Learning that beloved mutt only has three days to live, Kara pursues Krem for the antidote he keeps on his person and reluctantly takes Ruthye with her.
Lots of pain and suffering
This was an unmitigated disaster.
Alcock is based the Woman of Tomorrow comic miniseries, but I bet character is more likable in source material.
Story is nearly as generic as action, which is bizarrely way too dark.
I guess they took heavy inspiration from AVP: Requiem.
Aquaman isn't given much to do, but Czarnian bounty hunter is the best thing about nearly two hours of my life I won't get back.
It would be rude not to talk about Schonaerts, who is without a shadow of any doubt the WORST fucking villain I have ever seen.
Man of Tomorrow is next, and I honestly 'can' wait.
