    I am actually currently reading the collection book for that.

    And it does the whole "PG feels lost" arc a lot better cause there it actually keeps her personality better. Like PG does get sad about her past but she's still energetic and boisterous in spite of her problems.

    Here though she comes across as just completely neutered. It goes too far with the angst and pretty much becomes wangsting.

    Ended up dropping the book myself. If I’m watching what money I spend on comics, this one ain’t worth it (to me).

    Yeah, she's basically Jean Grey (pre-Phoenix) levels. That was shown in early days of the Abnett Titans series before it got rebooted.

    Neutered is a good way to define the writting here. Is rteally dissapointing how the character has been destroyed. It is like the writer tooks the Powergirl from Infinte Crisis and never went out of that characterization.
