Mary Marvel, first distaff counterpart in comics and popular enough to have her own books long before Supergirl ever did.
She's also fond of laughing at the thought of bullets harming her.
You mean the Manga and not the movie right? Yeah I love it and I think it's his best work.
Misfit the best Bat Family member
Titania is awesome. She's 100% ride or die for her man without compromising herself as a person morally and you gotta love that about her. Once you get Titania in your corner, you have her. I absolutely loved Joshua Williamson's Illuminati run which ran way too short (only 7 issues! The hell!) and got cancelled, but Titania was the straightman (or straightwoman, rather) on the team and it was brilliant. She was also played up as Thor's rival when Jane Foster was Thor, which was dope, too.
What's the story here? Is this from the Superior Spider-Man run?
No it was Peter, just she fucked around and found out. Don't really remember the exact situation versus the outcome and impact on character.

Marionette is completely different from Harley and only similar in aesthetics. They're very different characters.Marionette, the best thing to come out of Doomsday Clock.
Basically an upgraded Harley Quinn. Less insane and no baggage with the Joker.
Sure, she has a completely different origin, she's basically sane and her motivations are also 100% different. Still reminded me of a sane and more grounded Harley for quite a bit of the run, maybe more similar to Telltale's Harley than how she usually is portrayed in comics and animation.
Sage's character is so awesome. Basically a telepathic living computer that was subjugated by Sebastian Shaw. Not even having a name, only the one he gave her. Only to free herself and become more.I nominated her as my favourite of the X-Women in a recent thread: Sage.
A woman whose power is her incredible intellect and ability to retain large swathes of data.
Had a bit of an odd introduction into the series with the retcon of her being the Hellfire Club's Tessa, but soon became a firm favourite in my big X-Men readthrough. It's just a shame she has often been left alone for years at a time, recently not appearing in any X-titles for around five years until Dawn Of X , having appeared back on Earth after interdimensional adventuring and nobody asking what she was up to. 🤦♀️
PIFFY!!!!!!!!Still one of my favorites (Agent 355, click image for more info):
And Epiphany (more clickage):
To be fair Marvel's Death also appears like this sometimes.Can't have a thread celebrating women in comics without bringing up Death herself. There aren't that many characters I can think of that are equally as likely to be cosplayed as they are tattooed on people.
If this was the Death in Marvel, everyone would get why Thanos had the hots for her. 🤔
Marvel Death>DC Death.To be fair Marvel's Death also appears like this sometimes.
Jane Thor is one of my favorites, but since shes already been posted how about some Captain Britain Betsy!
Such an awesome idea to differentiate Betsy and Psylocke in this new era of X-Men.
And some Harley Quinn for Messi
Betsy was always one of my favorite X-Men (of course I am also a fan of the Braddock family in general so take that as you will). Never liked nor understood the whole "she's Asian now" bullshit, it was insulting. I eventually got used to it but I love where they have it now, I get the true Betsy and as CB no less, and if you exclude Fallen Angels I really like where they have been going with Kwannon too.Jane Thor is one of my favorites, but since shes already been posted how about some Captain Britain Betsy!

I also want to shout out to a villain from that same run, Star. Ripley Ryan was a reporter who was paid to cover Carol Danvers for a day and emded up getting caught up in another dimension and almost died.
Black Cat! Marvel's very own cat-burglar.
Always had a sweet spot for her ever since her on and off again relationship with Spidey, but I really do think she's grown into her own over the years. Especially enjoy her latest ongoing comic. It's great fun.
I'm going to second this, Star was a really fun read.
In the grand scheme, you're right. In the aforementioned context, no.
Maybe we need a "Celebrate Woman Creators in Comics Thread"
