Line 49:
* [[Big Applesauce]]: She has now moved to Manhattan.
* [[Big Bad]]: When breaking into New Cadmus, which is being orchestrated by Max Lord, Kara and Nico actually comment that this is the headquarters of the bag guy that is behind ''everything''.
* [[Bizarre Alien Biology]]: While she is a [[Human Alien]] on the surface, her biological structure is anything but. This is emphasized in ''Justice League Europe #9'', where a surgeon finds her psychology "twisted like dough" and many organs "duplicated", indicating she has multiple organs that humans have only one of.

* [[Blue Eyes]]: Classic, beautiful blue.
* [[Brainwashed]]: Max Lord hits Power Girl with a mental suggestion to go kill the Justice League International. She sees everyone on the team as another hero ([[Captain Atom]] as [[Superman]], Fire as [[Teen Titans (Comic Book)|Starfire]], Ice as [[Supergirl]], Rocket Red as [[Green Lantern]] Hal Jordan and Booster Gold as [[Batman]]) and hears all their dialogue as plans to conquer and rule humanity.
Line 62 ⟶ 64:
* [[Clothing Damage]]: She suffers from this a suspiciously large amount. Her costume is often portrayed as being hardly more resilient than Empowered's. She never lets it slow her down though.
* [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: "Divine," the [[Evil Twin|evil]] [[Cloning Blues|clone]] of Power Girl, has black hair opposed to PG's blonde, but is otherwise identical in every way.
* [[Composite Character]]: In DC Super Hero Girls (where this Trope applies to many regulars), Power Girl and Supergirl are the same character. Kara already has PG's hairstyle and personality, taking on the "Power Girl" persona as a second identity when everyone believes she is dead.
* [[The Conscience]]: During her team-ups with Harley Quinn, Power Girl often reprimands her for her immoral actions and tries to stir her in the right direction.
* [[Continuity Snarl]]: Power Girl's origin is unusual in that it lampshades the utter failure of past writers to come up with a legitimate way of maintaining her character's existence in the face of endless rewrites of the DC universe's history. There is no way the character can exist in the currently "valid" history- and her character development directly involves her attempts to deal with that fact. She is the cousin of Earth-2 Superman, but it is explicitly the pre-Crisis Earth 2. The new similar Earth-2 created following the 52 event has its own Power Girl cementing our Power Girl's status as an orphan of the old Multiverse.
