Well, that's what a new podcast by Eric Wallace seems to suggest among other things. It also suggests that Karen has or soon will have superpowers---though no word is given on how she gets them, or if she already had them. And yes, Karen, not Power Girl, so they would seem to be one and the same person as they normally are.

About 29 minutes into it.

For those who care BTW, the Ryan Choi thing was editorially mandated.

From what I understand from someone who's read it; Karen is still doing her Starrware thing. That person was disappointed with her role there.

God if that's what happens I'm going to write such an angry letter. Because this is what the industry needs, more super-girlfriends

She seems to be more in a 'friends with benefits' kinda situation with Mr. Terrific. At least she's not his assistant, she's more of his equal in the business world kinda thing.

in my opion they cancelled power girls title for this crap wth this sounds stupid in my opion.

awesome job on the potential spoiler in the title

She was so cool.., Now she's just some superhero's girlfriend... :(

Well, it seems more and more likely IMO that she's still Power Girl. The outfit she wore at the party for example---basically the color scheme of her Power Girl costume, only reversed. That she felt she had to tell Mr. Terrific why she was there, when it would have seemed to be the only logical reason...if she was just Karen Starr. And a couple of other things.

I can't wait to see how many people are gonna hate on this.

The term is F*ck b*ddy.

I'm just disappointed. I mean I am not surprised the author decided to hook the two up, we all saw it coming, but it is still disappointed when a character you like is written poorly. Oh well. At least her own ongoing was great. I'll just have to look back on those when I want to remember Power Girl.

Please add me to that list.

she's a big girl she can do what she wants hey at leastm shes not sleeping with half the dcu i mean wow chill for a bit

I was a big fan of Mr. Terrific/Sasha Bordeaux pairing. So I wasn't thrilled to read this topic.

@Kairan1979: Looks like Sasha is one of the big losers in the reboot.

Is her power gonna get nerfed big time as well or are those just rumors ? :/

i've read mr. terrific. tell you something. he should change his name. as for switching pg for him.......... BAD MOVE DC. VERY BAD MOVE.

Tell me when WAS'NT she a loser?@ScorpioP said:

Yes but what does it matter? Superman got owned by a train.

Lets be honest now folks,Mr T can contibute more to the DC universe than PG.

sounds dumb. I thought he was gonna be married or have a serious gf or something. I cant wait to see how they explain PG in this new DCU and then watch them destroy her character

We shouldn't rush to judgement because of one issue. In all likelihood, PG eventually will have a more prominent role in the new DCU.

As for her and Mr. Terrific as a couple? I'm all for it!

@jrock85:

cosigned it's good to see someone else not freaking out about this. and frankly this issue wasn't even that bad at least it beat O.M.A.C. Most of these people are just sore because PG's book was cut and while they have every right to be i think there anger is misplaced

Yeah, nobody saw that pun coming DD.

Im enjoying the series so far and the sense of science and adventure. Ive read all of Justice Society and the Power Girl series and so far I dont think Mr Wallace has treated either character badly.
