About this Collection

This collection brings together the early issues of the 2006 Power Girl series, focusing on the Kryptonian heroine's solo adventures as she establishes her own identity in the DC Universe. Written by Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti, with art by Amanda Conner, the story follows Power Girl as she balances her superhero duties with her personal life, all while dealing with threats both cosmic and mundane.

In "When the Symbioship Strikes!", Power Girl confronts a chilling revelation from the Psycho-Pirate: she may be the last remnant of a lost universe, a survivor from a Krypton that never fell and a Justice Society that once stood strong. Written by Geoff Johns and brought to life with bold energy by Amanda Conner, Jimmy Palmiotti, and Paul Mounts, this 2006 issue weaves mystery and legacy into a story where identity and history blur. The cover by Adam Hughes captures the moment’s intensity, setting the stage for a journey that redefines who Power Girl truly is.
