Worlds' Finest #1
This volume collects the first seven issues of the New 52 series Worlds' Finest, which follows the adventures of Power Girl (Kara Zor-L) and the Huntress (Helena Wayne) after they are stranded on Earth-1 following the destruction of Earth-2. The story explores their struggle to adapt to a new world while secretly searching for a way home, all while battling threats that emerge from their shared past. Writer Paul Levitz and artists George Pérez and Kevin Maguire kick off this buddy-hero saga that reimagines the classic duo for a modern era.
In "Three Midnights, Far from Home," a wounded Batman reaches out to Supergirl—still operating in secrecy—as Robin races to avenge her mother, Catwoman, murdered by Apokoliptian agents. Written by Paul Levitz and brought to life by Kevin Maguire and Wes Craig’s dynamic art, this pivotal flashback reveals the origins of a bond forged in tragedy, with George Pérez’s striking cover capturing the weight of that fateful night.
Power Girl and Huntress, stranded for five years on a parallel world, reunite to find a way home—only to discover the device meant to return them has been destroyed. With no clear path back and the odds stacked against them, their desperate search leads them through a fractured landscape where even the rules of reality seem to bend.
In a story that weaves mystery with the weight of legacy, Power Girl and Huntress find themselves drawn into the enigma of Hakkou—a figure whose origins hint at Apokolips, stirring old fears and unanswered questions. As they navigate the shadows of a world shaped by gods and warlords, a secret from Helena Wayne’s past may hold the key to their next move, while fleeting glimpses of the Justice League and Darkseid linger in memory.
In a pivotal flashback from *Worlds' Finest* #1, a young Robin, haunted by her mother Catwoman’s murder at the hands of Apokolips agents, pushes herself to the limit in pursuit of justice. With Batman gravely wounded and the city under siege, he calls on Supergirl—still operating in secret as Superman’s ally—to help protect the girl who’s become a target. The weight of legacy, loss, and the first flicker of a hero’s path unfolds under the shadow of war.
