Queen Femina Suarestellar Baroux

The space misandrist enemy of Zsa Zsa Zaturnnah, by golly ! Who was a goofy, not-highbrow parody of Filipina national super-heroine Darna. This entry previously had to be altered due to US online advertising standards. So we restored it, and did its hair while we were at it. If there are problems again I'll just ditch the ads, as happens increasingly...

An interesting 1966-1967 Charlton Comics hero. Not unlike a proto-Iron Fist. As of September of 2020, this profile received an editorial review - plus M&M stats that can do it, that must do it, that will do it !

Joker

(DC Tangent version)

This is the Tangent Comics version of the Joker - from a separate DC Comics continuity. Anti-authoritarian, acrobatic vigilante with novelty gadgets and some curiously Batman-like aspects. And she's a curious precursor to Harley Quinn. I thought she was pretty cool, and sadly underused.
