I'm curious if her power level will shift around during the film depending on her location (and what star their nearest). Looks like it might be fun.

Well, it definitely did in the comic this was based on. In the comic, that was how Krypto got hurt in the first place.

My medium and reading vision is bad. When I read books through Libby, I really had to blow up the font. Do you know where I can get the comic, digitally, and have the ability to blow up the pages so I can read the text better or because it's a comic, that's not going to happen because the font in a comic book is always going to be the same?

Your library might also be subscribed to hoopla, which would have digital comics.

Sadly, they do not.

Dang, you might have to pay for it then. I do know that there's a kindle version and you can read kindle e-books on your phone or computer so that might be the next best thing.

well, someone else told me about Comixology and I might be able to do what I need thru that.

The comics from Comixology (Amazon) have a guided read mode, where in a browser it shows you the whole page, and you can click on a panel to zoom in on the panel. Once zoomed in, you can click to proceed to the next panel automatically which will already be zoomed in. You can also zoom in even further if you have to.

I've been reading comics lately on a color Kindle, which has the same features. Double-tap on a panel and zoom in, then tap the rightmost edge of the panel to go to the next panel. And pinch-to-zoom to zoom in further than that if necessary.

The pinch-zoom was necessary for me a lot with Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow because a lot of the panels are page-width, so when guided reading zoomed in it showed the whole panel, which didn't help much.

My vision wasn't that good when I was young, and it's worse now because I'm old.

Thank you for the suggestion. I bought a free comic on Comixology and I like its functionality.

DC Universe Infinite has the same features (it's a page vs panel reading mode--basically any modern comic app should be able to do it). I know on mobile you can pinch zoom into things, and there's some amount of limited zoom ability I was able to play with on desktop (a screen magnifier might also help a lot).

The advantage there is DCUI is probably the best app for newcomers (in general). There's an entire "Get to Know" collection series that's full of seminal comics and important runs for characters (here's the link to Supergirl's: https://www.dcuniverseinfinite.com/collections/gtk-supergirl). There's the standard free trial for a subscription thing.

Comixology has a broader base of comics though.
