    I am NOT happy about this change at all! She does not need to be so tall!! Not all the woman in the comics universie need to 5 11 in height!

    What do you all think of this change? Pro, negative, or neutral??!!

    I think 5'11" makes more sense for Power Girl then 5'7", but that's me.

    How tall is she compared to Supergirl, out of curiosity?

    If Kara-0 is 5'7", Kara-2 can be 5'7", I guess.

    But also, this is totally useless to argue over, it's not like she's a real woman who always looks exactly the same in every picture of her.

    Not a huge Power Girl reader... but I don't think I've ever seen a picture that made her look 5'7". They always seemed to make her look huge and powerful.

    Yeah same here. I am surprised she was ever 5-7. I thought she broke 6 lol.

    I can not comprehend why anybody would care the slightest bit about these kind of things.

    I'm closest to being upset over how confusing her cameo in the Supergirl comic was a few years back.

    Same reason if it was stated that Superman was 5'9" and not 6'3"

    He probably was around 5'9 in New Frontier

    Pro.

    I always figured full-grown Kryptonian females dwarfed Terrestrial females (the average American woman's height is 5'4", not 5'11") the same way their grown males do (the average American man's height is 5'8", not 6'3" as Kal and Zod are usually stated). About a 7-inch height differential for both sexes.

    And honestly, I thought she was already at least 5'11 anyway. Karen has consistently been drawn as a bigger (height and weight) gal, except when she is around Kal himself:

    Kal was still 6'3" (he towered over normal joes) there ... but Diana was supposed to be 6'6" (without heels on) in NEW FRONTIER. That's really the highest outlier for her in terms of her physical stature.
