5. “Power Crush” (JSA #39)

God, I love Power Girl. I mean, she was my third favorite Justice Society member of all time, so like, you should have assumed that.

This issue focuses on Lucius Funk, aka Da’ Bomb, an ultramasculine moron with a gross Power Girl obsession. He breaks out of prison, goes after her, gets the ever loving stuffing kicked out of him, and gets sent right back where he came from. It’s a nice little issue that really works as the PG character piece the series needed. Her brash attitude really sells the tone of the issue, and makes her an immensely likable character.

And again, her advice at the end of the issue to “always show them what you got” really hit home with me.

Lucius is the perfect foil to Power Girl, as filled with testosterone as it gets, he is the ultimate overbearing egotistical dudebro that you can’t help but hope for Power Girl to smack around a bunch. And when it finally happens, it’s just as satisfying as you’d hope.
