Power Girl

You know, I've been collecting comics for quite a while. I must say that sometimes, the women drawn in comics are a little out of proportion.. Jim Lee has been doing quite a good job.. long legs till the nostrils, tantric breasts..

Talking about breasts, one great mysteries of the comic world is Power Girl's Breasts.

Don't know what I'm talking about. Here you go.



Now, Power Girl first appeared on the scene in All-Star Comics #58 in January of 1976, continuing where the old All-Star Comics left off, with #57, back in 1951. This continuation of the original All-Star Comics brought back the popular JSA members that appeared often in the Justice League title into their own book, as well as introducing new members like Power Girl, Star-Spangled Kid, and Robin from Earth-2. Here, we see Power Girl’s breasts are quite large, bigger than most super heroines of the time. Was this by accident, or did creators Gerry Conway and Ric Estrada purposely create the world’s first super hero whose entire history would be overshadowed by her…physical attributes? I think this one is lost to the sands of time.

As Power Girl continued to appear in various Justice League and All-Star Squadron comics, more and more people began to comment on her breasts. By the time Crisis on Infinite Earths was over and Karen Starr was a member of the Justice League again, they became one of the time’s longest running in-jokes, next to “Bwa-hah-hah” and the pies-in-the-face from Suicide Squad.

Power Girl now appears in the new Justice Society of America. She's tough as Superman. But I think the attention is elsewhere. Not convinced? Here's more evidence.
