How would people feel if Superman during his walk, got lost. And to replace the imbalance in the "Trinity" Power Girl stepped in? We'd have for the first time a female dominated Trinity, we'd have a metropolitan gal(Playing with her balancing the Power House-ness of who she is and the modern(-ish) view of women would be really fun) unlike Wonder Woman who might as well be alien being she grew up isolated on Themsycra.
Personally I'd love to see Power Girl take Superman's place, but lets first go on to why.
1.) She's Kryptonian like Kal-El but not weak against Kryptonite like him, so we won't see it every other issue used against her. Batman has to figure out a new way to beat her, which will be fun to find out about. She's been around longest(Other than Superman) so she should be closest to his power(To my knowledge).
2.) She's got leadership skills and a very involved civilian back story is interesting and doesn't seem like a vestigial plot point(I'm looking at you Clark Kent reporter for the Daily Planet) but it's not enough to cause baggage for her either(*cough* Peter Parker*cough*). She's got best of both worlds.
3.) It gives us a chance to really flesh out the dynamics of the Trinity, while Wonder Woman represents the JLA, Batman represents the more independent heroes, Power Girl is the representative of the JSA, the first team with all their moral and technical knowledge. This could be me more push the Trinity to become more like Marvel's Illumanti(Though less fail)
What are your opinions?
Power Girl
Character » Power Girl appears in 1704 issues.
Kara Zor-L is the older, wiser, and stronger counterpart of Supergirl from Earth 2 but resides on the Prime Earth.
The Girl also rises?
Interesting idea. I've long been for anything that would raise her prominence in the DCU and among fans. Maybe a formal storyline where he actually does go missing and she takes over would get her a press notice for the first time ever.
" i see Kon-El taking supermans place in 5 or so years "Five years in comic time or in our time?
