Takes place if the solicit and very fine painted cover are to be believed in this week's World's End. It's one of those "hero in peril" covers with PG standing in front of a huge Darkseid who looks about ready to put some serious hurt on her. This cover, however, really conveys the concept of even a Power Girl type being in peril really well, and it was nice to see them take the time to have a painted cover.

Okay---a good issue overall. A great issue for Power Girl fans. Does the cover scene appear in the book? No, not as such, though something like it might in the next issue. It really IS a solo fight between PG and Darkseid, thus giving her the single biggest solo fight in her publishing history. And....

@achilles100: i am so happy someone else is recognizing Powergirl potential. Can she beat darkseid? No, but it show she can be the next Superman

Power Girl doesn't back down even from the mightiest of foes, some nice action scenes here.

@mraugen: Well, this is typical DC. Get your hopes up, than dash them. Don't get me wrong, PG does get some decent offense in, in the form of ripping out Darkseid's eye, but this does seem to phase him even as much as the typical hangnail would to a human.

And a great solo fight with a top DC villain, someone she could reasonably be expected to lose to, only to make a comeback win, is something she needs. I get the feeling that SG in this same fight would have hurt Darkseid quite a bit more. But now we have the Kryptonians marginalized in favor of the multiverse GL Alan who will be the top dog on whatever they manage for Earth 2.1, since Alan can suddenly feel all his multiverse counterparts. Why can't Kara and Val-Zod?

Isn't it funny? He invades Prime Earth and gets his eyes stabbed out. Five years later he hits Earth-2 and again gets his eyes stabbed out

well i prefer darkside
