Female superheroes

Not sure if this fits in parenting, but here goes:

Dd1 (5) has been invited to a superheroes party next month. She wants to go as a girl/woman superhero, but the only ones we can think of are Violet and Elastagirl from the Incredibles. Superbaby is a possibility - not sure if it's a female or male baby though

Are there any other female superheroes that spring to mind? She looked at me daft when I said there was a character called wonderwoman....

Oh Elastagirl is the best female super by far I'd say! Dp fancied Supergirl in the film.

helsy · 24/07/2005 18:55

Bump - any more ideas?

Wonderwoman is in the Justice League cartoon at the moment

How about one of the female X-Men?

helsy · 24/07/2005 18:57

A Powerpuff girl?

WideWebWitch · 24/07/2005 18:59

OK, here's another

WideWebWitch · 24/07/2005 19:01

Catwoman? All a bit leathery and pervy though! Well, Halle Berry was (just said to ds, hang on, just want to post a link to batgirl adn he said 'is that someone's mumsnet name?' had to explain no, I meant a link to a Batgirl picture!

WideWebWitch · 24/07/2005 19:02

Actually, batgirl looks quite good! Isn't catwoman a villain rather than a superhero?

Was CrystalTips a supergirl?

helsy · 24/07/2005 19:05

She was rather super, yes.

Does Mona the Vampire count as a superhero?

OP posts:
Nbg · 24/07/2005 19:12

I thought of Dora but she's not very super is she.

helsy · 24/07/2005 19:17

Dd1 was rather scornful at your suggestion, nbg. Sorry.
