With the Green Lantern, Captain America, Wolverine, Batman and so many other Superheros out there getting their own movies, it makes one wonder when the heroines of the comics universe are going to get some cinematic recognition. There's no Wonder Woman movie as of yet, and a Wallflower film doesn't seem forthcoming either. Unfortunate, yes, but we offer here a song based substitute for the time being. Not a good as a feature length tribute, certainly, but as close as we can get. (It was either this or a Hawk Girl musical, and I think Broadway's got enough to deal with in terms of costumed crusaders as it is right now.)

Enjoy!

And as always, all songs collected into: Tonight's YouTube Playlist (Set-up and organized by Sam G.)
