The questions left unanswered by Superman/Batman: Supergirl are answered handily here, and Loeb does a great job staying true to Supergirl's pre-crisis origin, while at the same time turning elements of it on their head, despite a somewhat quick, truncated ending after the mystery's solved.
This volume also serves as an interesting sequel to both Loeb's Superman/Batman: Public Enemies, as he handles - -is this a spoiler anymore? -- both Lex Luthor and some of Lex's old Public Enemies heroes team, and to Geoff Johns' Teen Titans/Outsiders: The Insiders, even if some of the continuity gets stretched a little bit (see the trade paperback timeline).
Too bad Loeb doesn't remain with the character any longer; we'll see next time around how Rucka, Kelly, and others handle her.
