I must confess to having a weakness for amazonian women. To me there's something so thrilling and goddamn awesome about women being unashamed of having height and strength and generally NOT being shelf-boobed tiny-waisted barbie dolls. This goes for RL and comic books.
I think you'll enjoy Kate Kane. She dodges the stereotypes of lipstick/butch by falling somewhere nebulously in between. Also, as a little awesome detail, I love that her Batwoman boots are flat. Seriously, no-one can be expected to fight crime in skyscraper heels.
