@thecimmerian I do too; it’s challenging to get invested in this new makeover for Power Girl with this awful series attached to it.
THE SUPERGIRLS ARE TRAPPED! While tracking down the missing citizens of Metropolis, Paige and Kara have found themselves powerless in the mythical realm of Ferembia. They'll now have to rely on their wits to find an escape and the brains behind the whole operation before they're stuck in their own personal dark age!
Ultimately, the issue is well worth a read as the collaboration between Leah Williams and Marguerite Sauvage shows how passionate the two are for these characters and the world they inhabit. Read Full Review
Sometimes comics forget they can be fun. Yes, certain stories require a more hardened approach, but there's a beauty to knowing exactly how to take readers on an adventure. Leah Williams has that superpower in droves. Read Full Review
The art is fantastic and adds an inviting all-ages aspect to the comic as a whole. The writing has been stellar from the beginning, but this one is especially fun done up like a fairytale. The story is well contained but I actually wouldn't have minded staying in Ferimbia a bit longer. My guess is we haven't seen the last of these new concepts as long as Leah Williams remains the writer. Read Full Review
This whole issue feels vaguely over-the-top and funny, despite there being some surprisingly high-stakes plots worked in here. There are some great visuals as well, plus some surprisingly good jokes that poke fun at many of the, ahem, tropes about Power Girl. Read Full Review
Williams' lack of understanding of the character and inability to write an interesting story (she abandoned the interesting stuff in the first arc) give no hope for Power Girl fans. Read Full Review
Power Girl #7 hurriedly wraps up the cartoon fairytale adventure with rushed scenes, semi-slapstick action, and tons of exposition. Williams was likely told to cut the story short to make way for Absolute Power, and it shows. Read Full Review
The problem is that this is not a solid run with a good interpretation, And only 7 issues in we have had a silent 'through the eyes of a pet' issue AND a two part cutesy, other world story. That is three off-brand issues out of seven. Too much, too soon, not earned. Read Full Review
Not for me…and I stood up for the Cat issue. I liked the Art style but also not something I would be interested in either.
I dont understand who Williams and DC editors are writing to. The first arc had some high points and went darker at moments. Then it got goofy, now it is just a book for kids. I contemplated reading this to my kid instead of reading it for myself. The art is not appropriate for a standard super-hero, let a lone power girl book. This is drawn like it is for kids.
Now is it good art for kids? Yeah the art is honestly pretty great for a child audience. The story was literally written as a fairy tale kids story. This entire mini-arc was just a straight up fairy tale.
Williams clearly has no one directing her. This was an ok kids tale but a total miss on what should have been a PG story for typical comic book readers, not more
Not ranking this issue, because I haven’t read it. I’m genuinely curious on who is interested in this plot and new version of Power Girl?
