Helena needs to borrow some more money from her alternate-universe daddy but is blocked by the current Robin, Damien Wayne. Apparently she’s not the only one whose been dipping into the Wayne back account. Meanwhile, Power Girl attempts to install a device to monitor Apokalipsian energies but it gets destroyed while PG avoids here alternate universe self.

What they got right: It was only a matter of time before one of the Earth-52 heroes met up with our heroines and Damien works well for the story. The Huntress/Robin fight was fun to watch and the two banter off of each other well. And hopefully Huntress and Power Girl will be kept out of the “Death of the Family” and “H’El On Earth” crossover events for the Bat-titles and Super-titles respectively.

What they got wrong: OK, even I think Karen’s flirting with any dude she comes across is getting excessive. Flirting with astronauts in costume? Aren’t you trying to keep a low profile?

Recommendation: One of the only New 52 titles I’m reading for a reason. You should check this one out.

Is it too early to declare this week’s winner?
