    Remember that at that time, before the Crisis, Diana did not fly, and there is a clear distinction between those who fly and those who do not. But the interesting thing about all this is Batgirl's speed, because she is on a motorcycle! That seemed unfair to me and I thought Diana lost just because they didn't put a picture of her inside the invisible plane lol

    LOL at them calling Ms. Marvel "Chica Maravillosa," which is literally Spanish for "Wonderful Girl" and She Hulk "Mujer Verde," which is Spanish for "Green Woman."

    Also, did you ever get to read in Argentina the comics Starman El Libertario, Fantomás La Amenaza Elegante, Kalimán El Hombre Increible, and Águila Solitaria ?
    I do not know those comics, it seems to me that they did not arrive in Argentina or they would have been before my young years.
    Here apart from the North American comics I read Nippur de Lagash (a masterpiece without precedent in Argentina) El Eternauta (another comic masterpiece), Patoruzito a humorous comic about a native Argentine Indian, in which I was thinking a lot due to the discussion about Yara Flor and cultural representation, maybe Joelle Jones should read those old Patoruzito and Patoruzu comics (the adult version) :P

Yikes.
    I always loved that she is the most powerful and the tallest of all (except for Catwoman, but in my mind it was because of the high heels) :P

    She still had super speed back then and was much faster based on feats than most characters on those images. BNut still, cute discovery.

    And why the heck is She-Hulk called Mujer Verde - Green Woman - instead of Chica Hulk?

    I thought she always has super speed I was surprised it was so low on stats and wasn't she gliding on air currents basically flying back then

    I really have no idea about the Beast, from Marvel I have only followed the career of Spider-Woman and in the 90s something of the X-Men.
    Regarding la Chica Verde (She-Hulk = Ella Hulk or Hulka), El hombre de Piedra (The Thing = La Cosa) y El Hombre de Goma (Mr. Fantastic = Señor Fantastico), I guess it was more marketer to translate them that way. Currently there is a tendency to leave the names in their original language.

    Although I must say that when I discovered that their original names were The Thing and Mr. Fantastic and not the exact translation from Spanish, I thought what more stupid names they have, what superhero is called La Cosa or Sr. Fantastico? Hahaha
