She doesn't do crying about what's done, she just soldiers on.
    Karen's not a robot.

    Never said she was. What I was saying it that she's tough mentally, and that she doesn't take anything from anyone.

    Seems like Leah Williams only sees Powergirl as an imperfect copy of Kara and therefore somehow thinks that's how the readers (and Karen herself) see her as well. Ha! She has no idea....clearly.

    No reason to change a character this drastically after this long....because the writer doesn't understand her.
    The "Paige" thing is ridiculous. I'm already done with Williams' harebrained take on a beloved character.

    Everyone has their breaking point (which they can recover from). And it's not like Karen was entirely pliant and submissive throughout this story.

    I dunno, I kinda feel like the astral punch thing was a little too on the nose and forced. Kinda like Peter Griffin doing his Road House roundhouse kick every which way.

    It was like the book was saying, “see, we told you Karen (er, Paige) still throws down when she wants to.”
