Power Girl #2

In "Unleashing the Beast," Power Girl faces a chilling threat as the Ultra-Humanite reveals the twisted origins of his immortality—born with a degenerative disease, he relied on his genius and a mysterious ally named Satanna to survive long enough to transfer his mind into an albino ape. Written by Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray, with bold, dynamic art by Amanda Conner (pencils and inks), this 2009 issue delivers a gripping psychological showdown, all rendered in vivid colors by Paul Mounts and sharp lettering by John J. Hill. The cover, also by Amanda Conner, captures the intensity of the moment with striking precision.
