The twenty-fifth issue of the series sees both the
Huntress and
Power Girl make their goodbyes before returning to their own Earth. Although the journey back home has been foreshadowed for some time, I'm less than thrilled with the comic sending the two heroes back to a universe I care even less about than the New 52 version of Earth-1. However, given that future solicitations suggest one or both characters will be making appearances in titles taking place on the main New 52 Earth it's a bit unclear how long their trip home will last.
With at least the next several issues taking place on their hellish homeworld which has fallen to
Apokolips and an evil Superman,
Worlds’ Finest #25 plays to the series strengths by centering the storyline on the friendship and interaction of our two heroines. The issue works well and even an appearance of the
New 52 version of Desaad (adding a bit of action to the proceedings) can't ruin what works as a bittersweet portend that perhaps the series' best issues may now have already been told. Worth a look.
