Countdown to Halloween 2020 ADVENTURE COMICS: SUPERGIRL "Demon Spawn"
You Want Demons?
Soul-Sucking Possession?
Mystic Battles?
You Got It!
Mike Sekowsky returns (sadly, only as the penciler) for this tale of cosmic terror!
The Mystical Mayhem Continues...
TOMORROW!
(Here's a preview...)
Though Sekowsky was no longer the writer/editor/illustrator, the then-current creatives felt his "touch" was needed, and he returned to pencil three of of the final four issues of Supergirl's stint in Adventure Comics!
TOMORROW!
(Here's a preview...)
This never-reprinted story from DC's Adventure Comics #421 (1972) was the last of the Gothic/horror tales in the CW's Favorite Heroine's strip.
The two remaining stories were a re-do of King Kong (with the Girl of Steel as Fay Wray) and a mind-controlled Superman against Supergirl and the Justice League!

Countdown to Halloween 2020 ADVENTURE COMICS: SUPERGIRL "All Men are But Slaves!" Conclusion
When Last We Left the CW's favorite super-heroine...
Transported to a dimension where the laws of physics don't always apply, the Girl of Steel seeks to rescue a father and son who've been kidnapped by a society of female chauvinists...
Will, as con pundit Rush Limbaugh has speculated, "Feminazis" will rise up and conquer the Earth?
BTW, if you miss the really-Gothic stories, be here next week for a tale of demons and soul-sucking!

Countdown to Halloween 2020 ADVENTURE COMICS: SUPERGIRL "All Men are But Slaves!" Part 1
As I mentioned before, until the early-1970s, DC tended to treat "magic" as merely unexplained science...
To Be Concluded...
Written by Steve Skeates and illustrated by Bob Oksner, this never-reprinted feature from DC's Adventure Comics #417 (1972) is almost a perfect counterpoint to another never-reprinted Supergirl story we presented HERE!Please Support Heroines!

Countdown to Halloween 2020 ADVENTURE COMICS: SUPERGIRL "I Am a Witch!"
(This second part from DC's Adventure Comics #396 [1970] wasn't cover-featured!)
Now, let's allow writer Robert Kanigher and artist Kurt Schaffenberger explain what happened...and note one very important plot point from the previous chapter that they leave out!
One of the major plot points at the end of the previous story...
...was the fact Amos Ameswell knew Supergirl's secret identity!
Yet he seems to have forgotten it between issues!
Now she's hauling him off to prison...where he could've used it as a bargaining chip for safety from other inmates...
