Timeline wise, where does the comic fit into the continuity of the show?
The 13-chapter story takes place before episode 10 of season 1.
Its early in Supergirls career.

Yeah, thats the fun of comic books.
The only limit is really your imagination and what an artist can draw.
There are no budgets.
DC Comics
For people who havent read the digital book, we go to some really strange places.
We do this very long dream battle that goes deep into Supergirls psyche and deep into a dreamscape.
How much are you working with theSupergirlproducers on the story to ensure the continuity works out?
DC Comics
Fairly closely; more so at the start of season 1 than right now.
I pitched a bunch of villains that I wanted to use, and he said, Go for it.
Hes been checking in, and weve been talking as its gone along.
DC Comics
Are there particular previousSupergirlstorylines in the comics that youre drawing inspiration from at all?
I wroteSupergirlfrom 2008 to 2011, we did a run on the book duringNew Kryptonsaga.
As a guy who used to write that book, Im pretty well-versed in theSupergirllore.
DC Comics
We make reference to a lot of differentSupergirlstories throughout, particularly in the dream battle chapters.
But our main inspiration is the show.
Is there anything youcantdo?
DC Comics
Pretty much everything that was in my initial pitch is in the book.
I dont know that theyve said really no to anything weve tried.
They seemed very willing to go with me on this journey that I put Kara on.
DC Comics
It feels a lot like were only limited by imagination and what we can draw.
We have crazy battles.
Do you follow the same party line for the comics?
It always comes back to Supergirl.
The story were telling inAdventures of Supergirlis about Supergirl, because its Adventures ofSupergirl.
I wouldnt want to write a story called Supergirl that is about anybody else.
