Super Hero Comics Featuring Women/Feminist Characters

Let's put together a list of super hero comics featuring women who are actual characters, not just cheese cake. I'll start the ball rolling, and you can add any you think of, ok? I'll go through the list later and review the ones I especially like, and anyone who has a comic they love/create can do the same.

No Longer Updating
The Green Avenger by Abby Lehrk.
The Adventures Of Super Hero Girl by Faith Erin Hicks.
Pancakes (short story, completed) by Kat Leyh.

Active
Strong Female Protagonist by Brennan Lee Mulligan & Molly Ostertag.
The Nonadventures Of Wonderella by Justin Pierce.
The Adventures Of Gyno-Star by Rebecca Cohen.

I purposely excluded a few super-hero comics featuring female cast members because they're included entirely for T&A. However, this list looks pretty paltry. What have you got?

...and the search for these has made me realize I don't follow a whole lot of superhero comics period. So if there are a ton of cringeworthy male-dominated ones out there, I'm blissfully ignorant XD

Definitely tracking this post for more recs!
