CBR list are so...

Onyx needs to be on this list.

I'm surprised that Donna Troy didn't make the list.

Couple of these are power over technique. I would say Wonder Woman and Barda are powerfully skilled warriors but not exactly the best when it comes to hand to hand technique. I would’ve put Huntress and Catwoman on this list before them.

Also, Cassandra, Black Canary and Katana have all been shown to be close to Shiva’s technical level, so I would have ranked them much higher.

even subtracting the physical strength element, I don't think Shiva is all that above Big Barda and Wonder Woman; if she is at all. the sheer experience and "alien" (in the sense that their combat culture are farther removed from conventional martial arts) nature of their martial arts style make them technically unlike any fighter Shiva's fought, Shiva will adapt but I doubt she'd compensate for them easily.

Not my point. Barda and Wonder Woman aren’t martial artists. They’re trained warriors/soldiers. It’s like someone from the army taking on Chuck Norris in his prime.

I love the character but I don't think Babs warrants being on the top 10 of this list. I think Batwoman is more formidable in hand-to-hand.

Cass, Canary, and Shiva should all be the top 3.

Heh :P

Someone should go back putting some attention to the stories before throwing names around seeing what sticks.

This list is objectively wrong and whoever wrote knows this is up to generate some discussion/buzz/clicks.

If numbers 1/2 aren't Shiva and Cass (regardless of order) it's wrong.

EDIT: I read it the whole thing now, and it looks written by a casual with acces to wikipedia and what he/she thinks is common sense. Geez!
