Kathy and Traya! Finally something relevant to Red Tornado's character!

(I feel like Russel is incapable of writing characters who can't be sarcastic or comedic).

Been enjoying this. Maybe the heroes will fire the board of weasels after they get done taking them apart. I’d pay double for that issue. Russel is not doing Kara any justice turning her into a corporate suck up. It’s kind of actually turning my stomach.

Has she not been called Karen at all in this series?

Actually, blonde white woman named "Karen..." I dunno, does Power Girl's civilian identity need to be retired ?

As the old saying goes, play to your strengths.

Yeah, but sometimes too much of a good thing...

Russel is also good at showing heart, which he's done here with Tornado taking care of Gangbuster. Yeah, he does rely heavily on the comedy but he can balance it well at times.

For someone who hasn't read this, how can Kara be on the chopping block? She's the only real name hero they have AFAIK, and by far the most powerful and skillful. And did they ever explain why she'd even sign onto such a thing, when she's refused better before?

I know it from his Wonder Twins and Flinstones, but the voices just feel off.

No, last we knew she was CEO of her own software company, so it makes no sense that she'd be conniving middle management in this outfit.
