A Super Exception

First of all, I have to say that I love superhero movies--the Batman trilogy is not only a kickass, action-packed thrill ride but also a deeply compelling psychological narrative that presents the audience with a giant load of intellectual material, but I'm not here to praise Christopher Nolan (which I could do for hours, believe me). Denzell's post about the most recent Batman installment and Mylan's post about the lack of female superheroes got me thinking: could I list any lady heroes that were stand-alone, powerful women? The answer at first seemed to be a big NO, but then I remembered that I've seen The Incredibles about 100 times because my nieces and nephews were obsessed for a while.
