EXCLUSIVELY confirmed in a ComicBook.com EXCLUSIVE earlier today, the search for The Legion of Superheroes' Saturn Girl will EXCLUSIVELY begin this April in Supergirl #8, one month after it EXCLUSIVELY begins in March's Batgirl Annual as reported EXCLUSIVELY on Bleeding Cool yesterday. As noted in that report, Batgirl Annual's solicit reads:

Which brings us to ComicBook.com's EXCLUSIVE, EXCLUSIVELY confirming the thing we reported a day earlier by saying basically the exact same thing in different words, except that they also have the solicitation for Supergirl #8 EXCLUSIVELY provided by DC Comics:
