Definitely an interesting issue, and some great character interaction. Gotta say I'm loving Braniac, making me laugh. I'm not a personal fan of such long fights but you pulled it off nicely, breaking the action up so that it never got boring or stale. And now that i'm catching up on my Buffy the Supergirl robot is even better XD Solid issue with plenty more to come

Another really fun issue here.
It flows so nicely and keeps a great pace throughout while continuing to develop a number of exciting storylines. The little bits you throw in here are great too - the reference to the REM song, modified appropriately, was pretty clever in particular. I also thought naming the reporter on the scene Otto a nice touch, given Mary's appearance in the issue.
Speaking of which, the battle between Mary and Supergirl was exciting and well developed. You made the old "superheroes fight, then team up" trope work effectively. It's really nice the way you were able to keep both characters looking strong in this, so that neither Mary nor Supergirl look particularly weak, both in terms of getting into the fight, their actions throughout it, and then in the make-up aftermath. That can be a delicate balance, but you handled it well.
The characters are all note perfect: Toyman remains unbelievably creepy, Calculator ever distant and in control, Leslie Willis remains the opportunist - it's really great and helps to build the world for your characters, continuing their storylines without having to have them be the focus of the issue. The issue ends with a great climax, definitely will be interested to see what comes next with Rudy Jones.
Once again, a great job from a great series.
