Although Supergirl fans will relish page 4, I believe the first panel of 5 says it all: after a full force ramming by SG, PG just casually tosses her into a wall. Now *that's* Power Girl.

Actually, a point could be made that the animated Supergirl is much more like Power Girl than the pre Crisis Supergirl. For one thing she adopted the name Karen (Karen Starr was the name Kara Zor-L created), also she wears PG's costume colors and has a strong resentment toward's Clark's overprotectiveness. The only difference is that the animated SG has the Kara Zor-El personality more than she does Power Girl's.

One of my fav comics growing up was Supes, and PG and I think Green Arrow going after Vandal Savage.
