Super-Love with SUPERGIRL (and WONDER WOMAN) "Revolt of the Super-Chicks" Part 3

...actually, we'll see this scene by Supergirl series artist Jim Mooney in. couple of pages!
In the meantime, all you need to know is that Supergirl has renounced being a crimefighter to become a Paris fashion model.
Wonder Woman, at Superman's request, follows Kara to talk her out of it, but becomes enraptured by a romantic Frenchman in the City of Love!
Meanwhile, metamorphing villain Multi-Face plots to steal an experimental rocket from a base nearby the "Isle of Love" where both the heroines are vacationing...
Considering they were both ready to throw away their careers (and in Wonder Woman's case, her long-time love Steve Trevor),  the ending seems a bit...contrived!
The two heroines would meet again in the final issue of Wonder Woman before she renounced her powers for totally-different reasons...
Err...never mind!
BTW, you can read this tale HERE!

Super-Love with SUPERGIRL (and WONDER WOMAN) "Revolt of the Super-Chicks" Part 1

We wind up our Supergirl Blogathon with the first team-up of...aw, you guessed!
...in their first team-up!
Let's look in on the 1960s' most-notorious lovebirds, Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, or as the story refers to them, "...two familiar faces..."!
Yep, you can tell this is the 1960s!
This never-reprinted Silver Age tale from DC's Brave and the Bold #63 (1965-66) features...
A cameo by Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton!
References to James Bond!
Superman doing an amazing "Adam West as Batman" imitation when discussing romance!
(BTW, this story was published before the Batman TV show debuted!)
And easily-swayed, apparently-nymphomaniac, superheroines!
What were writer Bob Haney and artist John Rosenberger (both of whom had romance comics experience) thinking???

Super-Love with SUPERGIRL "StarFire's Revenge" Part 1

...villainess StarFire's plan to use a romantic lure to use a super-power-eliminating drug on Supergirl works...sort of!
The drug causes Kara's powers to temporarily shut-down at random moments.
Luckily, Kandorian science, though unable to reverse the effects, provides her with tech to give her replacement super-strength and flight (though not invulnerability)!
Meanwhile, the villainess has killed her romantic catspaw, Derek, to prevent him from revealing to the world...
What happens if Kara's powers cut out now?

Super-Love with SUPERGIRL "Love Conquers All...Even Supergirl!" Conclusion

...supervillainess StarFire recruits charismatic criminal Derek Ames to trick Supergirl into ingesting an experimental drug that will remove/supress her super-powers!
Faking a mugging in order to meet the Girl of Steel, the sleazeball makes the most of the opportunity to "thank" his "rescuer"...
Unlike Adventure Comics' readers, you'll only have to wait a day to see the continuation of this never-reprinted tale from DC's Adventure Comics #402 (1971) which altered the status quo of Supergirl for several years!
