Top Female Bricks - DC & Marvel
Seeing the upcoming Lady Liberators stories relating to Hulk, it makes me think about who's got the better female brawlers - power, skills, character or other.
I have a top six in mind for each company.
DC
Wonder Woman, Supergirl, Power Girl, Mary Marvel, Big Barda, Grace Choi
Marvel
Thor Girl, Miss Marvel, She Hulk, Valkyrie, Thundra, Rogue
Not a versus thread per se. But you could imagine how a head to head could go.

A few of those are more than "bricks." By common KMC definition, a brick is someone who has only strength and durability powers. Healing and/or flight can be included, but as soon as you get anything more exotic (energy attacks, extra equipment, magical anything, etc.) they cease to be "brick-ish" by any standard.

I would substitude Mary for Knockout...she is more a brick than Mary.

A just think of someone who is a brick, has high-tier superhuman strength and whose first mode of attack is to knock you out.
Storm is powerful in her way, but she has no super strength so is not a brick.

...it's not a concrete definition. But yeah, essentially, you're right.

Trying to limit this to heroic characters. Knockout barely made antihero before doing something disgraceful again.
As for Fairchild - she's in the Wildstorm Universe. How many sub dimensions to go into?
If I did that, I would have put in Power Princess/Princess Zarda.

And thats part of DC, anyways....She Hulk is the best female brick.

Trying to limit this to non-flyers is tough, since there are so many fliers at DC.
But if so, that leaves my first DC list with only Barda & Grace Choi. So, if you add Fairchild & Knockout...
My Marvel list, that leaves She-Hulk, Thundra and Valkyrie(the liberators.) If Knockout is on the former team, maybe I bring in Titania.

DC's Rampage is a prime example for a female brick, Mongal was too before they killed her off.

Talk of Giganta & Rampage...we're getting too far into the villains. I'd like to keep it to heroes.
