No. Way. What is this all about? Are they conspiring to make me interested in more than just two of PG's attributes?

Geoff Johns has just thrown a curveball. He's been hinting that PG was from the future since she joined the JSA around issue 30, many speculated it had to do with the Titans Tomorrow arc. Johns also hinted that the cover of JSA:C #2 would reveal significant aspects of the origin in his newsarama interview about this story arc.
Could it be more misdirection or does Brainy have yet another big blonde for his unrequited affections? Is this the "more recent" character that is scheduled to join the legion?

Holy Magoley!
You know, usually I'd think I'd be hesitate for this, but I'm kinda excited about it. PG with the Legion? This sounds kinda kewl!

Well crap! I was planning to skip the first JSA: Classified arc (I'm more excited about rumored stories taking place in the JSA's past). But, Geoff Johns found the one thing that would make me interested in Power Girl's origin.
But I'm glad I found out about this now incase the story sells out at my retailer.

Imra look very sexy in this cover, and the costume looks different....pink and I see more flesh. Maybe we have another alternate Legion? The idea of Power Girl in the Legion is fantastic. With Kara in the present, maybe she can be the Supergirl from the future related with the Superman family. A big Andromeda Vs Power Girl clash could'been terrific!

Oh no, please, not Power Girl of all people. Her backstory has to be the screwiest in the DCU and now it looks to get even screwier. Next revelation: she's really Laurel Gand after multiple boob augmentations. Blech, blech, blech, except for Mordru.
I hope to gods Imra doesn't really wear THAT awful costume. Garth is very lucky Karen didn't aim a little bit lower.
No good will come of this, imo.

When I first saw this I asked what Saturn girl was doing with her right arm... but upon further review I see she's not punching Power Girl...
Imra's got a FISTFULL OF HAIR. How's that for a catfight.

what I find interesting is that the image contains the 3 founding members. I wonder if this supposed to be a membership invitation that went really wrong?

That's an interesting idea, wamu2. But, the solicitation mentions that this is a "reunion." Maybe they think they are meeting Supergirl again and get confused?

The Supergirl idea seems plausible, but...we know that PG is sometimes weakened by kryptonite. If she were a descendent of Kal-El she could have inherited (at least partially) his weakness to kryptonite. And is it still in-continuity that PG had more powers but lost them after getting a severe beating? If so, the half-breed Kryptonian idea seems ever more plausible.

I can only assume the... huh conception process was handled very carefully.

Bah. I'm a huge PG fan, and a huge Legion fan, but these are just two great tastes that don't taste great together.
The Legion extracts itself once again from the continuous chaos that is the mainstream DCU, and then hooks up with the poster girl for "We have no idea what we're doing with continuity."
Nothing good can come from this.

Groovy. Sadly with the Legion being rebooted so many darn times and PG it may get sticky but atleast it sounds fun.
Definately Mordu is involved!

I think she's Laurel Gand. I might be okay with that, if it's handled well. Can't wait to get this one...
The only consistent feature of all of your dissatisfying relationships is you.
Don't judge me!

well, I will reserve judgement until the I see how it all plays out. However, as a rule I really dislike the whole time travel theme in comics.
but, with the prevalance of time travel that has been poping up in DC books of late(Titans, JSA,Bats & Supes,etc) I guess it was bound to touch the legion revamp at some point.
my head already hurts from trying to understand all the posts here and elsewhere about what character power girl may turn out to be.(granted I am new and don't know much about legion history) but hey, maybe, just maybe it will turn out to be an elegant and sensible story.
