Alright anon, for whatever reason, DC has decided to give you complete creative control over what happens with PG's character. How do you make her comic not suck for a change?

I turn it into DC's first explicit porn comic and thus single-handedly save the entire industry
>single-handedly
heh
Retcon her history to be the Supergirl that got killed in Infinite Crisis by the Anti-Monitor who came back. Why? Because I'm high right now.
Wait wait let’s let you cook. Go on
Okay, I'm high again:
Let's go for some DC bullshit reason for this retcon, Kara from Pre-Crisis manages to come back to life because of Dark Crisis or some bullshit. Now, if my memory serves me right Pre-Crisis Kara really tried to make an identity for herself before the Crisis, hence the retcon will be that she will take on the name Power Girl, you even have a little nod that her first choice would be Mighty Maid.
She's the new hero on the block from an era that (Frick Dark Crisis) tries to fit in this new earth. Her civilian life having short-term term jobs, and trying to find one that sticks, basically no job security. That's all I got, gunna take a nap
Go on..
Go back to playing up PG's sex appeal and make her confident in her sexuality without shitting on men, while also giving her story arcs that make it clear that underneath the big breasts, she's still a heroine, and a very powerful one at that. Basically She-Hulk in her prime.
Keep team-ups to a minimum, have her mostly be a solo act, but when they do happen, have them mainly be with goofier characters, since PG is a surprisingly good straight-man.
I liked that one comic with terra so I just get back whoever did that
Secret Straight Shota romance with Fisher.

>wanna put you in a fridge
You can tell someone is unstably horny when they say they wanna put you in a fridge
It’s a reference to one of the Green Lanterns girlfriends I believe
Technically, yes, but it's more likely that they're referencing Gail Simone's seminal whinge about said comic.
Get rid of the Karen Start thing. Turn her into “Paige Stetler” who works closer to Superman, maybe even at the Dailey Planet in disguise.
Give her a best friend. Maybe someone who can read her thoughts or communicate with her telepathically.
Who in DC can do that besides a Martian Manhunter?
Oh yeah, use Lilith from Teen Titans.
Also give her Streaky the super cat since Supergirl is not using him. Just don’t mention PG’s old cat Stinky. Streaky is better anyway.
I hate guerilla (homie) marketing
Make her pure sporty tomboy.
She gets married to a man and has a kid.
I'd give her tall sexy boots with high heels.
Add love interest
Have a beach issue
I would just lean heavily into the MILK TRUCK meme since that's all PG is really known for anyway. Completely reject and shitcan her earlier appearances in JSA and elsewhere where she's an angry dyke, and make the Conner/Palmiotti version the core of the character. Power Girl is casual, relaxed, friendly, approachable. While Superman and the rest have a certain "divinity" to them, PG is the Kryptonian you can sit next to at a bar. And her breasts should consistently be bigger than her head, and this should be a subject of silent envy for other superheroines because breast envy is best envy.
>yeah but what does she DO
Deliberately goofy superhero antics that are borderline parody. I think the perfect PG story was the one where Vartox tries to frick her like Pepe le Pew and she's running away from him. My point is, she's not a serious character, don't try to use her as such. Just have fun with her.
Plot twist: Those are female inmates cat calling her.
Power Girl Munches the DC Universe
I’d make all Kryptonian women canon Futanari, and she rapes Shotas
Go all in on the Redfieldposting with Superman trying to convince Batman to help continue the Zor El bloodline.
when are they going to introduce her new sidekick Power Trap?
She has plenty of sidekicks:
Atlee, Tanya Spears, and now Lilith.
but where's Power Trap?
Hmm. Are we sticking with an altverse origin?
If so, maybe a couple new powers, or more leaning on frost breath than lasereyes.
I think a bit point of what has made her aimless over the years and difficult for a solo carry was that she lacks a niche; so some sort of role as a guardian against multiversal incursions would be good. Team her up with a magic-type who has the same sort of mission too.
This way, she can also fight villains who can threaten her, as they'd predominantly use magic, or there'd be bizzare multiversal shit going on that can whammy her.
Keep the boob window and keep her playful, but otherwise just make it about the superheroics and not setting out a big statement on that...but if we can pull a Claremont and get risque elements mixed in as a part of the storytelling, then all the better for sales, amarite?
Remember when Chris Claremont wrote Powergirl in Sovereign Seven?
I do not, but I am sure it was lovely.
I would put her threw hell, I would send her to war world, and have her fight brutal berserk fights, but she never looses compassion and hope.
Make her go barefoot
DC Xtreme Beach Volleyball
give her a machine gun and have her fight skeletons in the skeleton dimension
I'm interested
Ignore infinite crisis and write the stories that have 90 years of work building up a consistent world an characters. Powergirl belongs on Earth 2.
>turn her into a wiener tease that takes control when men lust after her instead of feeling uncomfortable like OP's pic
>every man she fights she instantly overpowers with sexy wrestling
>make her less human and more Power, truly an alien from another world
>give her a shy young boy assistant to be the human self-insert for the readers
there you go, ultimate kino
