Power Girl: New Beginnings and Old Friends Omnibus

Power Girl (2009) #1-4+

by Jimmy Palmiotti, Amanda Conner (Illustrator)

Return to Power Girl's greatest era in this definitive omnibus collecting the iconic collaboration of Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner (Harley Quinn)!

Power Girl leaves her old life—and old Earth—behind to reinvent herself in New York City, but trouble continues to follow Kara Zor-L (a.k.a. Karen Starr) like a bad penny! Besides battling archenemies like the Ultra-Humanite, Satanna, and the shadowy Max Lord, the Kryptonian heroine also contends with bankruptcies, hostile takeovers, and other corporate skulduggery in this uniquely entertaining chapter of her tumultuous career.

Crafted by fan-favorite creators Justin Gray, Jimmy Palmiotti, Amanda Conner, Judd Winick, Geoff Johns, Sami Basri, Hendry Prasetya, and Matthew Sturges, this comprehensive omnibus edition collects all of Power Girl’s adventures from the pages of JSA: Classified #1-4, Supergirl #12, Terra #1-4, Power Girl #1-27, and Wonder Woman #600, and includes new essays and sketches from Palmiotti, Conner, and Winick!

880 pages, Hardcover

That was actually really fucking good, and I’m a little miffed that it’s better than a lot of the Supergirl runs. Most of all, this run did what a lot of DC comics can’t do for me, which is make me care about a character I hated the day before. I used to be a Power Girl hater cuz she was a Supergirl eraser. Now I’m kind of in love with her. She is where Supergirl writers put their frustration when they aren’t allowed to give Supergirl a good story.
