people really out here hating on superhero movies with female leads like???? women are the ONLY real superheroes on this planet. you DO NOT get to shit on art just because women are on the front line.
So sick of seeing Diana be the only woman on the Justice League.* Whether it’s comics, movies, or just art (fan or official), remember the women!
Friendly reminder that Black Canary was the second woman to join both the JSA (1948) and the JLA (1969). At various points in comics history, Canary has been the only woman in the League, as well as its leader. She’s one of DC’s oldest female characters, and she has a long history with the League. She’s way more than the Birds of Prey and Arrowfam. Stop ignoring her in JL lineups.
Other women included in JL lineups at different points:
Zatanna
Hawkwoman (Shayera Hol)
Hawkgirl (Kendra Saunders)
Vixen
Big Barda
Fire
Ice
Dr. Light
Green Lantern (Jessica Cruz)
Power Girl
Stargirl
And a lot more! Just read some comics.
Basically… if your lineup doesn’t include more than one woman, chances are you don’t actually know that much about the Justice League. I will happily take offense when people include Aquaman (let’s face it, he’s kinda lame and we all know it) or Cyborg (please please please let him be a Titan again) but only one of the many women who’ve been JL members for decades.
*For the record, I wholeheartedly blame New 52 and by extension the Snyder/Whedon movie for this phenomenon. :)
Black-cat/Felicia Hardy but from the Spectacular Spider-man universe!!
I wanted to give her some more background than what we got in the show before it was cancelled… so in this AU she goes to a prestigious private school, and has to balance school work and her kleptomaniac alter ego Black-Cat 🐈⬛
Realized what bothers me the most about male fans’ “just let us have some harmless eye candy” approach to oversexualized, scantily clad female superheroes is it implies that female characters have to earn their right to a place in the narrative through their physical attractiveness.
Chris evans anytime his CA days are brought up: annoyed as he can possibly seem
Meanwhile scarlett Johansson: dedicates an entire Instagram account to Natasha Romanoff, posts cryptic messages alluding to nat, posts in honor of The Marvels coming out, never embarrassed to be associated with the black widow- hence her recently saying “what do you think my super power is? …I’m an assassin;)”
She knows Disney/marvel fucked her and her character over and she ain’t gonna let ‘em forget it anytime soon. Also she knows her marvel days aren’t going to overshadow the rest of her career unlike the former
