Icicle
(Joar Makent part #1])
The Golden Age version of the character, though he endured into the 1990s. Criminal, genius, wielder of the cold gun.
As of January of 2020, this profile was overhauled for concision and smoother reading. It was also cleft in two to facilitate reading on smartphones.

Black Widow
(Natalia Romanova) (Profile #1 - 1927-1946)
An unreasonably thorough explanation about the Black Widow (Natalia Romanova) from the origins to the end of the Great Patriotic War. Buckle up, it's something of a ride.

Black Widow
(Natalia Romanova) (Profile #2 - 1946-1965)
Part the second of our beautiful and deadly character profile for Natalia Romanova.
This one covers 1946-1965, but in practice it mostly corresponds to her earliest Marvel appearances as a femme fatale after Tony Stark's industrial assets. Or at least, what he insists are industrial assets.

A 1940s DC Comics character with a surprising amount of backstory - once you start thinking about it. Magical weather powers.
Catwoman
(Profile #1 - 1940s, part 1)
This is specifically for the earliest (1940-1949) versions of Catwoman (a.k.a. the Cat, a.k.a. the Cat Woman). Because she changes a lot over time.

Growth and (sometimes) physical adaptation/morphing powers. Criminal mastermind type.
Superwoman
(Lois Lane in 1943)
In 1943, a dreaming Lois Lane became the first Superwoman. It was a short but intriguing story, and clearly it can be made even better by adding RPG stats. I mean, that's obvious to everyone, right ?
Captain Ironfist
An obscure 1942 enemy of Superman and Lois Lane. Possibly a ghost pirate, but prolly not.
Madame Death
A 1940s mobster with some potential to her, who later became a time traveller since that was a Tuesday.

Future Man
(Timely Comics)
A 1946 proto-Marvel time-travelling villain, who fought the All-Winners (the post-War version of the Invaders, more or less).
