Power Girl #4

This miniseries comics to a thankful close. Power Girl confronts the 'weaver' on his turf of a dying realm of magic. Aiding her in this quest is a mischievous little imp called Ghy. I don't know if we ever see this character ever again. But from what issues of various Justice League titles featuring Power Girl that I've read, I don't think so. But he was such a great character.

Our mysterious 'stranger' returns to mostly observe. Power Girl asks why don't he help her and he claims it's only his job to observe. Since when did our mystery character become a member of Marvel's Watchers? 

Another inconsistency I noticed right off the bat is that Power Girl refers to herself throughout this issue as Kara. But in the 3 previous issues, she's Karen. Not only that but everyone else in this final issue now calls her Kara, which was Power Girl's name before the Altantis origin reboot. So why the sudden return to Kara? 

The story ends with a nice, cheerful ending. It's a little too clean of an ending. Besides Spider-Man, Power Girl is one of the most dumped on characters in comic book history. So for everything to come up roses in such a 30 minutes or less sitcom fashion is rather unfashionable for her. 

Issue #4 did not disappoint. Disappoint in being as bad as the majority of the issues in this miniseries. I came into this chapter expecting nothing and with the exception of this single one-and-apparently-done character, there was very little to enjoy. 

Even the art, which to this point had been phenomenal, was a big letdown. It's like the artist, Rick Hoberg, kinda realized that this mini was a stinker and just gave up trying. 

Not one of DC's finest moments. 

Not Worth Consuming!
