“Power Girl”

Power Girl bursts straight off this February 1978 cover with fists raised and red cape flying, clutching a copy of All Star Comics as debris scatters around her — it's a bold, confident image rendered with real energy by cover artists Joe Staton and Joe Orlando. The banner proudly announces she's "exploding into her own action-packed series," making Showcase #97 her solo spotlight moment within DC's long-running tryout anthology. Writer Paul Levitz and artist Joe Staton bring this determined, blue-eyed powerhouse to the fore, and the cover alone makes a compelling case that she's more than ready to carry a title on her own terms.
