Power Girl
Character » Power Girl appears in 1721 issues.
Kara Zor-L is the older, wiser, and stronger counterpart of Supergirl from Earth 2 but resides on the Prime Earth.
powergirl and/or supergirl

"Earth 2 is know for Groth hormones and plus she use a super advanced wonder bra.. but really men are pigs so we made them bigger :)"
More that we are pigs, but that's our charm. Powergirl was around before the current Supergirl, who is still a teenager so they gave her more teenage proportions.

"Nobody says:Yup"Powergirl is way hotter though."u jus like her cause of her powerjugs!!!"
Her cans weren't always like that. When she first appeared, she had the proportions of every other female heroine of the era. It wasn't until she was featured in the pages of Justice League Europe that , the massively talented, lllustrator Bart Sears started drawing her with fuller proportions, did the fandom start to take notice.
Bart Sears! We have you to thank for this never ending debate.
I know, I'm way late to the party here but I just had to contribute.

You know, somehow I forgot to add that to his list of accomplishments when I wrote my submission to his page here. ;P You are right though, the chest is Bart's contribution to the character.
Not to highjack/keep this thread going long past it's usefulleness, but I just can't really help myself here now that Sears has been brought ino the conversation.
Bart Sears is one of my all-time favorite comic artists, mostly because I really liked JLE when I was a kid, but I really think he makes the chests so big to detract from the fact that he usually doesn't draw very attractive female faces. Just like in real life, I suppose he figures the reader won't bother to look at the face if they're hit with a distraction like that.
In that JLE 18 cover you can compare what he's done with Power Girl, to the Crimson Fox and see that Power Girl's proportions are intentional. He is truly the Grand Architect of her most recognized character traits, fueling needless debates for decades and decades to come. Amanda Conner may be in the driver seat of her design as of recent history but she will never achieve what Bart Sears has created . . . . a legacy. LOL

Actually, PG goes by Kara Zor-L (though, she clearly prefers to be called "Karen"). No, they're not the same person. They're each others multiverse counterparts, but they've lived completely diffrent lives (resulting in diffrent personalities) and were born in diffrent decades. Nor is their DNA identical (as proven time and time again, by PG's DNA being diffrent from New Earth Kryptonians).
Please dont take this the wrong way but 1 PG is older more mature and fully grown SG is younger not fully grown and she's a teen 2 SG will most likely look like PG when she's older seeing as there both the same I think Tell me if I'm wrong
" Please dont take this the wrong way but 1 PG is older more mature and fully grown SG is younger not fully grown and she's a teen 2 SG will most likely look like PG when she's older seeing as there both the same I think Tell me if I'm wrong "They're not both the same. They're alternate version of each other. Power Girl is from Earth 2. That doesn't make them the same person, though. And Kara's been shown in the future (not talking about LoS and she looks nothing like Power Girl. She looks like Alura.

" I love how all PG topics turn into toxic waste by someone mentioning her breast "QFT.
I don't know why people have such a hard time with the PG/ SG relationship. It's the exact same relation that Cable and X-Man share.
" @Green Skin: What do you mean, I thought they disliked each other. "I'm referring to their genetic/ dimensional relationship to each other. Cable and X-man are the same person, just from a different dimension (or timelines , or earths if you prefer), PG and SG are also different versions of each other. For each pair you have one older and more experience, and one younger rookie.
actually if u watch justice league the animated series power girl is a clone of supergirl and the reason they look different (regarding her boobs) is because the doctor that made her said he was going to make her look older to distinguish her from super girl so no there not the same person she's a clone

PG was drawn with a larger, stronger and curvier physique than most other female superheroes from her first appearance.
There was never any need for debate. People who are offended by boobs can buy Supergirl.
@fodigg: nothing wrong with a little skin, now DC males show their tits too with the barechest
Let me be very clear: I have no problem with cheesecake or beefcake. I don't equate sexuality with objectification. But I have issues with the boob window specifically because it makes cleavage her superhero symbol. If you want to read an extremely long (and often heated) debate on this topic, you can check out this thread here. I say pretty much all I possibly could on the subject.
