Imagine a world very much like ours, except, through some twist of fate, a major comic book publisher managed to create a female super-hero whose path followed something like Batman's/Superman's in our world.
She got a long-running TV show in the 60's, movies in the 70's, then a reboot in the early 90's and another reboot around 2010. The comic strip has spawned dozens of side-lines. There have been animated shows and even a brief musical. Fanfiction abounds. Fan wars abound.
She would have first appeared in a Wonder Worlds Comics (Often called, because of its logo, V4 or V4C) in the mid-30's.
So:
She needs a name. It needs to be a woman or lady or anything that isn't girl, please.
It also needs to be not something that already shows up on a Google search, 'cause this is showing up in to-be-published work. <.<
I would like for her to have a super-power of some sort, and a secret identity.
edited to add: now I have two! Waterwoman/Liquid Lady and the Aerialist!
I'm leaning more towards Bruce Wayne than Clark Kent in this secret identity, even though such heros don't usually have superpowers.
She needs at least 2 sidekicks, pref. with catchphrases, one male and one female.
A trademark villain or two wouldn't be bad, either.
And anything else you can think of!

Less "iconic" recurring members of the rogues gallery:
Pierrot - he never speaks, uses mime-themed telekinesis. Gets a dark-and-gritty reboot making him an experimental subject, possibly stitching his mouth shut?
The Fairy Queen - has a cult fan following, but hasn't shown up in new comics for years. Is an actual fairy queen from England, has fairy minions and glamour. Her stories tend to be used to let the writers do non-canon character deaths, because "it was all an illusion".
note: female supers that are their own title tend to have female villains, keep that in mind

Date: 2015-06-06 04:08 am (UTC)These reference two of the Western* classical four elements. How about using one of them for one sidekick, and modeling the other sidekick on one of the others... say, Flameout or Earthmover (Stonemason)?
And the remaining element for a supervillain.
* Chinese tradition has five.
