CBS’s Supergirl will receive a new ongoing comic book series penned by DC veteran girl-of-steel writer Sterling Gates.

Adventures of Supergirl won’t directly tie into the show but will tell original tales following Kara-Zor-El as she teams up with the DEO as she tries to keep her identity under wraps while working at CATCO Media.

The 13-part digital comic book series will be released bi-weekly every Monday to co-inside with new episodes on CBS in the US. DC has also confirmed that super villains such as Rampage, Vril, Dox and Psi will appear.

The comic book series will also have a rotating cast of artists including Bengal, Jonboy Meyers, Emanuela Lupacchino and Emma Vieceli. Currently Bengal is slated to pencil, ink and colour the first three chapters.

Supergirl won’t be the first DC Tv property to receive a comic book series with Arrow, The Flash and Smallville all enjoying ongoing success. Supergirl however will be the first to skip a paperback release with the entire series being released as a collected graphic novel after the digital issues have been posted online.

The series itself is enjoying rating success with CBS ordering a full season bringing the total episodes to 20 in its debut season.

Adventures of Supergirl will be released in January 25, 2016.
