As the Knight Terrors event continues, fans are getting an insight into the psychology of some of the best-known characters within the DC Universe. Among them is a heroine who is getting more and more attention as she redefines herself for the latest age of DC: Power Girl. In “She’s Got No Strings: Part Two” from Knight Terrors: Action Comics #2 (by Leah Williams, Vasco Georgiev, Alex Guimares, Becca Carey) Paige continues to struggle against the nightmare holding her in place, revealing that she has a fear that humanizes her in a way the fears of other Kryptonians do not.While running from the nightmare version of Omen that Insomniac used to torment her, Paige was injured badly enough to make her bleed. This terrified her and the false Omen mocked her for secretly fearing human frailty. More than that though, this story pointed out how, while Paige didn’t fear Omen herself, she feared the power that caring about someone else could have over her. For all her strength and abilities, Power Girl fears vulnerability of any kind because she has been hurt in the past and doesn’t want it to happen again. As ironic as this is, it is arguably more relatable than the fears that define someone like Superman.The issue featured several instances of Power Girl being physically injured, from the blood the false Omen drew to even getting her ankle crushed beneath a metal door. These were representations of Power Girl’s fear of human frailty, and as horrific as they were, it is nevertheless fascinating to see this side of her played out on the pages.RELATED: Harley Quinn May Be DC’s Fourth Pillar, But She Doesn’t Want to Be
