Ahh, this is a whole world by itself. DC Comics female superheroes (and villains, of course) are important not only because they are awesome, but because they empower girls and show them they, too, can be strong and kick ass. Fan fact: in the 1950s and 1960s the majority of comic readers (about 55%) were girls. The first recognizable female heroine created by DC Comics was Wonder Woman. She no doubt is the most powerful female in the DC Universe. In our opinion, she is the most powerful female superhero ever created. At our bookstore, you can find different DC Comics titles dedicated entirely to her. Other well-known DC Comics superheroines include Supergirl, Batgirl, Mera, Black Canary, Stargirl, and many, many more. There are all interesting and with various abilities. And so are DC Comics female villains – our most favorite ones are Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, and Catwoman.
