This paper deals with cohomology theories on Berezin-Kostant supermanifolds. It is proven that the \(\mathbb Z_2\)-graded cohomology defined by Voronov and Zorich pretending to be sensitive to the graded structure is not well-defined. The author shows how this problem can be circumvented and that once this has been done, the resulting cohomology is isomorphic with the ordinary cohomology of the underlying differentiable manifold. The paper is clearly written and its introduction contains a nice review of the different cohomology theories so far developed for supermanifolds, including not only the Berezin-Kostant ones, but Rogers' and G-supermanifolds as well.
