Name a female superhero other than Wonder Woman
|
Name a female superhero other than Wonder Woman You might be able to but it probably takes a moment of thought . Currently in the DNGP community (Dork , nerd , geek , poindexter) there is a savage and wildly incoherent debate raging about Captain Marvel . And let me tell you , there's really nothing like a bunch of neckbeards in XXXL Deadpool jerseys arguing about gender politics . They've backed off on it a little but for a while they were pushing the fact that Captain Marvel is the first MCU movie with a female lead and anything about "feminism" always gets people riled up . There's a variety of arguments being throw out , one of this is that the movie shouldn't have been made because Captain Marvel isn't an A-List Marvel comic character . I find this interesting for a variety of reasons . Firstly , because Marvel has no A-list female characters . And for that matter aside from Wonder Woman neither does DC . With the success of the Avengers movies maybe some people would say Black Widow and maybe a few would say Scarlet Witch , maybe a handful would even say Jessica Jones - but really aside from the big W there's not much in the way of female super-people with strong brand recognition . More importantly though that argument is impotent because it doesn't matter - Marvel has their formula figured out . They do A , they do B , they do C and the make a billion damn dollars . It doesn't matter who's in the movies anymore . I mean the Guardians of the Galaxy ? Most comic people didn't even know them and that movie was a massive success . Ant-Man , Dr. Strange , Black Panther - this is not the cream of the Marvel crop and those movies made 7 bajillion dollars combined I'm pretty sure . Marvel doesn't need A-list characters , they just need to barf out a movie a few months and drive their dump-trunk full of million dollar bills to the bank . They could make a Demolition Man movie starring Jack Black and it would be the highest grossing film since Titanic . They could make 3D Man starring Owen Wilson and it would win an Oscar . They've making a TV show about Dazzler and Tygra - they can do whatever they want . They could make a movie where I play Spider-Man and my costume is the Spider-Man PJs I had when I was 8 and the villain is parking meter with a mask on it it would be a moderate success . I keep waiting for the bubble to burst but until it does Marvel can make a movie about anything and everything . I mean Jake Gyllenhall looks utterly ridiculous as Mysterio and that movie will be a smash hit . Anyway , I went and saw Captain Marvel today and the dude sitting next to me clapped when it said "Thanks Stan" at the beginning and cried during the scene where Captain Marvel learns that the power was inside her all along . I feel no shame in judging him . MEGA HUGE SPOILER ALERT Unless you like seeing a cat hack up a hairball don't bother staying for the second post-credit scene . If you do like watching a cat hack up a hairball I have no problem judging you either .

Supergirl. Batgirl..... those were the only ones besides Wonder Woman in the comic universe I grew up in! Opportunity may knock only once, but temptation bangs on the door forever!

Oh...wait....the Invisible Girl. I forgot about her for a nanosecond. Probably because she was part of the Fantastic Four and not a stand alone heroine. Opportunity may knock only once, but temptation bangs on the door forever!

She Hulk, and she could be an A list marvel character because she had her own comic book that I enjoyed reading. Silver Sable could also have a movie, but Sony owns the rights to her. As for female superheroes. Marvel: Storm, Rogue, Psylocke, Siryn, Meggan, Kitty Pryde, Sue Storm, Dagger, Firestar, Wolfsbane, Skids. DC: Fire, Ice, Black Canary, Dove, Maxima. I only put in some of the names I Know from my comic days, and some from shows. This list could go on, but you just said name a female Superhero other then Wonder Woman. I would consider each one Super and hero at some point.

I was listening to a podcast today where they said that these days the movie studios have to allocate a special PR budget for any movie with female lead characters (e.g. Ghostbusters reboot, Oceans whatever it was with Sandra Bullock, etc). Said budget is for counteracting trolls and whiners who have a problem with women being put into these roles - the 4Chan crowd. And they said that Captain Marvel had the biggest budget yet for dealing with the trolls.
