I would have to say there really isn't one.  After going over the list of female hero's for Marvel, there doesn't appear to be one comparable to WW.  They are all mostly either side or supporting characters.  She Hulk comes closest, but still not close to WW.

Great ending to a great series!  Both this show and Rogue One brought a depth to the Star Wars universe that had been lacking.

Not sure of the value, but nice sig placement.

Price drop 

Episode 11 was good...now we know what happened with the...

Definitely a set up episode..

I just hope they wrap up the multiple plot lines they have going on.

My top 5 that I've seen so far (INPO):

Spidey NWH

What if...? (Can't wait to see the next batch!)

Hawkeye

WWBN (Hope Swamp Thing gets his own special)

Loki

Listing a few SS books in Mixed Age selling section.

My mind immediately went to John Carpenter when I saw the thread title! 

Anyways, I never really thought about what was under his rocky outer shell, guess I figured he was rock to the core.

My favorite Superman tale comes from Issue #400, The Exile at the edge of Eternity by Steranko.  There is something hopeful about it, that the human race does survive and voyages to the stars. 

An amazing talent...RIP

Another fine episode, you can really feel the tension building. I just hope it comes to a satisfying conclusion in the last 3 eps.

First console was also the Atari 2600. Oddly enough, I won one at school as part of a costume contest, like a Career Day sort of thing. I wanted to be an artist, so I dressed up as a "painter" with a beret and little palette and everything. So, I won the Atari, but my folks, or, uh, Santa, had already purchased one to give me for Xmas. So, the school let us return it and keep the cash. Not bad! Oddly enough, my favorite game was probably the one that came with it, Combat. I had plenty of other games, but the arcade ports were always disappointing (Pac-Man, Frogger, Donkey Kong...these were NOT the games I loved at the arcade) and I also had a lot of generic titles. But Combat, it never got old. I'd play it with my Dad for hours.

Speaking of Dad, he loved Dig Dug, and some 20 or 30 years after the fact kept that old 2600 on life support on a little CRT tv in the basement so he could play Dig Dug. I eventually got him one of those All in One packages where the games come preloaded in the controller, and you can plug it directly into the tv, but I don't think he every liked it as well as he liked just playing the old Atari.

I agree regarding the arcade vs console disappointment.  Pac Man was just plain awful.

Dig Dug was fun!  I didn't have it with my Atari but used to play it at my local bowling alley arcade.

Me: hoping this ain't the case

This peaked my curiosity as I had never known MMs origin.  He first began as Super-mouse:

Cats of the city have imposed a reign of terror on the rodent community. The mice have barely a chance to live in peace, with endless traps and clever feline footwork sealing their doom. One mouse manages to escape from a particularly hungry cat and runs for shelter into an enormous supermarket. He examines the goods on the long lines of shelves and sets to work on a total transformation: He bathes in Super Soap, swallows Super Soup, munches Super Celery and plunges head first into an enormous piece of Super Cheese -- from which he emerges in a flash as Super Mouse! He's no longer a tiny rodent, but a two-footed, humanized mouse with a massive chest and powerful biceps. His costume is like Superman's, with a flowing red cape, and his powers are similar, too: He can fly through the air and repel bullets with his chest. Super Mouse soars to the rescue of his fellow mice and dispatches the neighborhood cats to the moon. Returning to earth, he is hoisted on the shoulders of his happy comrades, as the narrator declares, "Thus ends the adventure of Super Mouse... he seen his job and he done it!"
