    Default We don't have an all Female Injustice League elimination game. Why?

    And what does it tell us about the quantify and quality of good female antagonists in the DCU?

    Female heroes aren't as common as male ones, and their should be more. But it's among the villain ranks were the lack of diversity really begins to show.

    I think he was just making a point. Not to worry, I started a female villain thread, which I will turn into a poll, which I will turn into an elimination game. This is fun!

    Just remember who the intended target audience for U.S. superhero comic books were for the longest time . . . as well as who the creators of those comic books were.

    things seem to have expanded to the area of female villains in DC in general.

    If you want to talk about the specific group(s) of villains referred to as The Injustice League, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Injustice_League
