History: Kara Zor-L was born on the Earth-Two version of the doomed planet of Krypton just before it was destroyed, and her origin story mirrors those of her famous Kryptonian relatives, Superman and her counterpart, Supergirl.
When Kara's father, Zor-L, realized that Krypton was about to explode, he placed his infant daughter on a spaceship and shot it towards Earth. This occurred at the same time that the infant Kal-L (Kara's cousin and the Superman of Earth-Two) had also been launched on a ship towards Earth. However, Kara’s ship traveled far more slowly then Kal-L’s ship, and resulted in Kara arriving on Earth decades later than her cousin. Kara’s ship was called the Symbioship and it was designed to keep her in a stasis mode during her flight to Earth. To ensure that Kara's mental development kept pace with her physical growth, the ship provided her with a virtual reality that gave her life experiences and education as if she had grown up on Krypton rather than in stasis. During her long journey through space, she was able to interact with virtual copies of her parents and friends in her home city of Kandor.
When Kara's ship finally arrived on Earth, she was in her early twenties (though in her Modern Age retconned origin, she arrived on Earth at eighteen years of age). She then met her cousin Kal-L, who had grown up on Earth-Two as the heroic Superman. Kal-L, who in this reality had married his longtime sweetheart Lois Lane, adopted Kara so she could have a family and a period of adjustment to life on Earth. Shortly afterward, Kara set forth on Earth-Two to become the heroine known as Power Girl and joined her world's Justice Society of America.
Due to unknown circumstances, Kara wound up in his universe, unable to return home. She sought out this world's Superman and he helped her out. Establishing not only a new life her but the alias of Karen Starr. Kara, as Karen, formed Starrware Industries. Starrware Industries is a publicly traded research and development firm. She was able to finance the corporation through strong, optimistic investors. Karen committed Starrware's efforts towards progressive technology in providing solutions to the planet's environmental problems. She also joined this world's JSA, not wanting to be in her cousin's shadow in the JLA.
Powers: As a Kryptonian of the Earth-Two universe, Power Girl has all of the powers of the Pre-Crisis Earth-Two Superman. She possesses great superhuman strength, speed, flight and invulnerability. She also has super senses, heat vision, X-ray vision, and freezing breath. One of her most notable feats includes stopping Ultra-Humanite's massive starship from hitting Manhattan; she then hurled the ship into the Atlantic Ocean. When Supergirl of Earth-One arrived, the powers of the two women seemed to go haywire whenever they touched each other. They battled briefly and appeared to be evenly matched. She has also faced off against Wonder Woman, and though the battle was close and hard-fought, Power Girl eventually prevailed and knocked Wonder Woman clear into Canada. In a battle against Terra while Terra was controlled by Ultra-Humanite, Power Girl was victorious even with him using the full extent of Terra's powers, which are capable of shifting tectonic plates.
Weaknesses: Power Girl has the same Kryptonite weakness as Superman, except that she is immune to certain types of Kryptonite. The reason for this is because she is from Earth-Two. It was revealed that Earth-Two Kryptonians could only be affected by Kryptonite from Earth-Two and not Earth-One. Like Superman, Power Girl is also vulnerable to magical and psionic attacks.
Trivia:
- Power Girl is wary of the sudden influx of magicians.
- She is one of the harder trainers Chris Kent spars with, only Batman and Black Canary are harder.
- She shot down Tony Stark at one party in 5 seconds.
