I find this part of the article hysterical because it almost entirely
describes my character in our "Challengers" DC Heroes role-playing game,
Kaliko:

 

--"Tigra:  POWERS: Cat like powers of agility and jumping and claws and
stuff. Also, bathing suit excellence.

Again, someone is saying "what? no way, dude." And I know, I know. Tigra is
solid in a fight. Well, sometimes, I mean the Hood beat her up on camera
phone to make a point. But look, here's why she's on the team. Look at how
she's dressed. For a team that's almost always comprised of men she's a
distraction. One time she saved the world from being destroyed with her
hotness. Which is cool, but if her milkshake is strong enough to distract
molecule man amidst a homicidal rage imagine what its going to do to Iron
Man after a couple of drinks. 
Also she hooked up with Hank Pym, who's a known wife beater. Clearly she has
confidence or self esteem issues. But still, at No. 8, these guys aren't all
that bad, right?

And you know what else? Sometimes she has a tail and sometimes she doesn't,
and I just think that's creepy.

Also, that all being said, for a team made almost entirely of men she's also
on the list of people you want on your Avengers team. I know. It's
contradicting."

No Dr. Druid? I happened to like Rage and D Man, too.
