Nice to see. I'm reading Dynamite's Project Superpowers atm, which is all about the return of Golden Age superheroes to the here and now.

Always cool to see new ideas being done with early heroes.

I'm no expert on the Golden Age but there are plenty of female heroes in the story. When I've finished I'll check to see if there are any you haven't got listed.


Edit: Also, stupid typo in my last post (now corrected). It's Project Superpowers, not Project Superheroes!

@Electricmastro Okay, I've finished Project Superpowers, and the only Golden Age superheroine I can find who doesn't appear to be on your list is Vana (first appearance Popular Comics #46, Dec. 1939), the regular crime fighting partner (and wife) of Marvel Man.

There is a Dynamic Woman featured in Project Superpowers but as I can't find any Golden Age reference to her I think she may be an original creation of Dynamite Entertainment for the Project Superpowers comic.
