Its awful.
In the new (2016) DC official comic character reference book.
They took Power Girl current great physique and took her in the wrong direction!
From: 5 7 and 160 pounds
To: 5 11 and 180 pounds!Still got Wonder woman by 20 pounds at (almost the same height, WW official height is 6 foot even) the same height. But I liked at her previous size and height! That made her a VERY voluptuous and muscular lady super hero!

Power Girl & Dale Eaglesham
by Lady Momus • 2012/07/22 • 0 Comments
I’ve never been one to pay attention to who draws the comics I read. I would notice things I liked and I didn’t like, but I’d never really connect the art style with the artist name. I’ve gotten better about it, and I’m starting to develop a list of artists I like and don’t like.
Among the artists I love is Dale Eaglesham. I’ve already gushed about Dale Eaglesham’s attention to detail, and now I’m going to gush about his character design.
Dale Eaglesham is great at drawing characters. Even without their costumes, you would still be able to identify the characters he draws. Their body builds are different. Their faces are different. Even the body language of characters is different.
Because of this, he is my absolute favorite artist to draw Power Girl. Why?
You notice two things with this picture.
1.The boob window. (Thank you, DC, for getting rid of this.)
2.Holy crap, she’s buff.This is how she should look. She is a powerful woman, and she should look the part. Quite frankly, if you draw Power Girl and she doesn’t look like she can benchpress a truck, something has gone horribly wrong.
Here’s a couple more pictures, because I just adore this design:
This picture’s from a group shot with the JSA members at the time. Although you can’t see it, she’s buffer than all the other women there and some of the men.
This last one may just be my absolute favorite. No boob window, and she looks plenty strong enough to restrain Starman.
Anyone dumb enough to fight her deserves the inevitable beatdown.

For some reason he did not put up any of the photos he talks about here! About how built she is! I think this is what he was talking about in the JSA photos!
