Top Ten Uncollected runs from DC Comics, Part 2 - 5 to 1

Hello and welcome back to the concluding edition of Top Ten Uncollected runs at DC Comics. You can find my choices from 10 to 6 here. Now on to the final five:
 
5. Supergirl by Peter David and various
Some time after Supergirl (Matrix) was introduced, writer Peter David started defining the blank slate of emotions Matrix had been. Roger Stern wrote her as Luthor’s love interest (for good reason, as in the pocket universe she came from, she was Lana Lang who was in love with that universe’s Lex Luthor) until they had a falling out. Peter David shows her gaining, or rather absorbing the personality, of Linda Lee Danvers (actually the secret identity Supergirl operated under in the pre Crisis on Infinite Earths days). In this series, before Supergirl absorbed Linda, she was a good girl who did bad things, and got corrupted by the dark side, which eventually led to her death, until Supergirl/Matrix found her.
