Wonder Woman, Harley Quinn, Shuri, and Black Widow. These four
characters portray very different versions of women: the
superheroine, the abuse victim, the fourth wave princess, and the
spy, respectively. In this in-depth analysis of female characters
in superhero media, the authors begin by identifying ten eras of
superhero media defined by the way they portray women. Following
this, the various archetypes of superheroines are classified into
four categories: boundary crossers, good girls, outcasts, and those
that reclaim power. Modern superheroines fall under any of the
categories and with the push from the feminist movement,
superheroines are becoming more powerful and independent.
