Another fine episode! It’s hard to go wrong with Power Girl! I love the Gil Kane cover art for this issue, and I always enjoyed the idea that Power Girl, like the early Earth-2 Superman, hadn’t yet fully developed her powers and so resorted to super leaps rather than actual flying, for the most part. I do wonder why Maaldor decided that Earth-1 Superman and Earth-2 Power Girl were the two mightiest beings in the multiverse for him to fight. Surely Earth-1 Supergirl and Earth-2 Superman are both more powerful than Power Girl, at least in those days, and would have provided a greater challenge to Maaldor. I guess he just picked an appropriate team for the DC Comics Presents series.
By the way, have you heard about a hero called the Huntress? I understand she has some connection to the Earth-2 Batman and the Earth-2 Catwoman.
