    She has been spending so much time with the Bat-family lately that if in that image above it was Dick not Bruce (I'm pretty sure Bruce has the yellow symbol) I'd think that this "Blossoming Romance" might actually be Dick Grayson, and you know, I'm not all that opposed to the idea. I kind of like it. It'd be new and entertaining for a little while, and it doesn't have to be anything serious, but I doubt he is the one they are mentioning here.
     
    And Dr. Day is probably more Dick's type anyway being a redhead and all. xD

    Me too, also Dick/Helena
     
    and Babs/Helena if I'm really lucky ;)
     
    But DC seem to be unwilling to let those happen, so I'd love to see with this could go. Unlike Spidey and Ms Marvel who Marvel teased but never delivered on (the bastards >:_>)

    @FadeToBlackBolt: Meh. Dick and Helena to me are a semi-good match but function better as friends/colleagues. He and Babs are made for each other.  
     
    LMAO. I think Canary/Babs would be more likely to happen....you'd never believe some of the stuff out there. x__x

    Gail Simone seems to ship Babs/Dinah lol 
     
    I just like Dick and Helena because I love both characters. Though it's harder for me to like Grayson as long as he's wearing the Cowl >_> 
     
    Bruce/Selina and Bruce/Diana are still the best though ^_^

    Aren't Babs and Power Girl still kind of at odds with each other? That would just add another level if they do introduce a Dick and PG romance. The tension between the three of them would be interesting and there is a lot of potential for interesting story lines. 
     
    They could even use the romance as an opportunity to help repair Babs and PG's relationship. Maybe even springboard that into another Dick and Babs relationship if they wanted.

    I'm glad that her comic is doing well enough that she made it to #25. As for romance, it would have to be someone dynamic or I could see her getting bored.

    @jrock85:  I thought they were the same height? Although Dick does have a thing for tall women. Starfire is a freakin' giant.  
     
    But with that being said I doubt it is going to be Grayson. I don't think the idea would fly by DC's top brass. 

     
    @Jotham: That or she is shooting lightning from them. Neither would surprise me. xD

    Recent art seems to show PG at least half a head taller than Dick.  And since Connor, she's been typically drawn as very tall and big, (though AFAIK it was Sears who originally drew her that way---but she lost a lot of that size since his time until Connor revived that depiction).

    @achilles100: I would like for PG to stay looking tall. Makes her really stand out besides her breast. The current team does still show being tall though not as obvious.

    @zoddguts: Basri has been showing her about half a head taller than Dick.  And far taller than Nicco, or most any other non hero.  In the funeral scene, she's about ahead taller than anyone else, including all the men!

    Kind of funny how she used to sometimes appear around 5'7"-ish when she was drawn several years ago. That's artist's interpretations for ya. xD

    But I think I like her tall as well. It fits well with her strong character and personality, but I wouldn't want her too tall where she starts sticking out like a sore thumb all the time. That would be a little too much. I'd like her to be even with Superman's height. That feels about right to me. Although I wonder why she is so much taller than her Earth-1 counterpart. Probably best not to think about it too much, though.

    @achilles100: Yeah notice that she was the tallest one in the funeral heh. About why she's taller than Supergirl, guess it has to do with her being in the spaceship pod longer than Supergirl was. It provided a perfect  clean/ nourishment environment  for Karen to grow into her fullest potential for her body  possibly could, thus is why she is so tall compared to her counterpart.

    It's because their DNA is diffrent. Mostly, when movies/tv/comics does other universes, they simplify it to; One event in the main characters lives played out differently. Because then, they don't need a lot of time, to explain the diffrences between the two universes. However, in reality, the diffrences between the two universes would've started at the dawn of time and had continued effect over the ages. People lived diffrent lives and married someone else (FYI, you're apperance spawns from the DNA of your ancestors. One diffrent and we're talking about diffrent hair, nose or anything else) Karen's Krypton was located in the Negus starsystem (as opposed to Rao) and she was born during WWI (would be foolish to assume, that there wasn't at least one relative diffrent), decades before Kara Zor-El.

    Not to mention, she belongs to the original Multiverse, not the current one (meaning she's a counterpart of the Silver/Bronze Age Kara Zor-El, not the New Earth Kara Zor-El).

    Is the first bolded part something from an actual comic book, or just a guess?  I know that she's supposed to scan different with at least some equipment, but AFAIK they never got into the reasons why.

    As for the second bolded part, again was that from a book, and if so, which book and issue---cause I'd like to read it?  I have heard her as of late using the word "Rao" as a sort of swear, much as we might use "God" or something---which is odd if she wasn't from a Krypton in the Rao system.
