    Worlds' Finest is inspiring in its thematic focus on friendship and it's an overlooked bright spot of the New 52. Paul Levitz continues to impress as he charts the adventures of the dimensionally shifted Huntress and Power girl on Earth 1. He understands the characters, and thematically proves that a hero is a hero no matter what dimension they are in. Read Full Review

    I liked Cliff Richards on the Huntress Year One mini-series a few years back. And I have always liked CAFU's art so the art here was very solid. And Power Girl's costume looked good! Worlds' Finest continues to be an entertaining book for me. Read Full Review

    Overall, though we don't see the heroes working together, we do get some nice development and the art was more cohesive than it's been except on issues that have only had one artist. Read Full Review

    With that big caveat in play, I still haven't abandoned Helena and Karen, even when their antics definitely have crossed a line. But that all said, I will take the bad with the good here " these characters still have depth, have intensity, have enthusiasm, and that counts for a lot. This book has its heart in the right place, and in all other ways actually does well, but the powers that be at DC should definitely take this book as a learning experience. Read Full Review

    Despite having two separate artist working on the Power Girl story it actually works better than the Huntress intro that does little more than set-up Kara's quest to keep her friend safe. It also reminds us just how powerful (no pun intended) Power Girl is when she isn't fighting radioactive monsters from Apocalypse. For fans. Read Full Review

    Like other titles I have given this a chance as I have already said however there just does not seem to be any redeeming features at all and despite the minor improvement in the last two its a return to form for Worlds Finest and with nothing to draw anyone in I really dont see the point in it at all.

    So,Worlds' Finest has hit a creative roadblock. It maybe well paced, but there is nothing to get excited or even remotely interested about. The cliffhanger involving Damien Wayne seems to be from a different book altogether even though this title has had him appear recently. The disparate powers of the two leads has clearly become a major problem for the title and it is made worse by Levitz insisting on both characters going off on their own adventures. This is no longer a team up title, which is supposed to be its major selling point. Instead it is a book split between two characters that haven't been given anything interesting to do.
