Now I am noticing a lot of woman of that Height over in Marvel also!
She 5 10 in height also!!

Why does their height even need to be specified? They should worry about writing good stories for them instead of stuff like that.

"One of the biggest problems in the industry is apathy right now." - Dan Didio Co-Publisher of I Wonder Why That Is Comics
I didn't bring that up. People were already talking about it. I asked to see numbers in a poll, to determine whether there was actually unhappiness about it. There wasn't. So now we know.
But who sits around and decides exactly how tall each character is, and why? Does anyone know or care exactly how tall all the actors in a television show are? Of course not.

barbara gordon is 5"11?? I swear Dick is taller than her in every comics I read (Nightwing Dick not Robin), and Dick is 5"10 .
Agreed, here. My favourite Wonder Woman was in the New Frontier cartoon, when she dwarfed Supes. And Kori is my favourite DC heroine.
But the sample size of this study seems small. There are others, like Fire and Ice, who are a much more (ahem) normal 5'7-8".
I'll take some of that (wo)menace, if it bugs ya.
Anyway, we're talking about heroes, here. They're not supposed to be average in any way, shape, or form.

I've notice that also! I also notice that when he in his night wing outfit he wears flat ninja boots! So he not trying to be taller. Babs in batgirl outfits wears boots. And HE STILL taller than her. Go figure!
Than again star fire official height 6 4! And that difference don't look like much!

Oddly enough though Supergirl is only average height 5'6''
I think a lot of the more physical-fighting women of the dc universe - are on the tall end because being taller essentially means more physical power - those superheroines that don't really need the height (unless they are aliens) will tend not to be overly tall.
Raven from teen titans - from one dc database has her height at 5'5'' - average height; Donna Troy is not overly tall being just 5'9 (for an Amazon thats short) and Cassandra (wonder girl) is just 5'5''; and Black Canary stands at 5'7''.
So are there a bunch of tall women - of course there are some - but many are also average height.
There are very few that are short though in the dc universe I can't seem to recall many shorter than average men or women (excluding those that have a height problem and those that are younger teens).
Patsy Walker on TV! Patsy Walker in new comics! Patsy Walker in your brain! And Jessica Jones is the new Nancy! (Oh, and read the Comics Cube.)
