EJECTA EXPOSED! With the secrets of Metropolis's mysterious new hero out there, Power Girl now has all she needs to take her rival down once and for all. Will she prevail as she seeks revenge for Omen? Or does Ejecta have one final surprise up her sleeve?
It was a total treat to see Power Girl unleashed in a way that fits this version of her. Known for being a brutal power house, the fight is tempered with compassion and finality. Although I would have liked to see more of Omen's struggle within her mindscape inter mixed, it probably would have detracted from the relevancy of the title bout. Read Full Review
With Omen unconscious after a brutal beating by Ejecta, Power Girl is focused on one thing revenge. PG has always been the most hot-tempered of the Super family, but this is the kind of super-rage that only comes along once in a rare while. Read Full Review
Though the action is somewhat lacking, the issue is emotionally raw and a strong climactic end to the first apparent Ejecta saga. Read Full Review
Leah Williams does center this series on character. She doesn't write the character accurately or consistently even within her own standards, or with good dialogue, but she does try to make character important.

Williams' reimagining of Power Girl and it's not landing- how have we gotten 16 issues?

This book is exhausting. I am dropping it from my priority reads here at the end of this issue/arc. Secondary reading only. It didnt deliver anything I wanted. I wanted Omen dead...not that, she lives because... actually no reason given, she just lives cause why not? The power of... plot armor?
Ejecta is let go for some holier than thou reasons even though she is a massive threat and is even more powered up once she recovers. Her and her 'dad' are really salty against PG now. Only thing I can say I actually enjoyed is that Ejecta is just.. evil. Like born evil, evil it seems. No 'oh I am a misunderstood villian like the BS Marvel and DC so often do. For that, that is the one great thing I can say about this issue. Good job Leah more
