** The unnamed extra-dimensional group that appears for a couple of pages in issue 1 are very clearly expies of the classic Justice League, and the female of the group thus must be a Wonder Woman stand-in, albeit that she is blonde and carries a shield.
** An unnamed one appears in issue #10 who came to America from a LadyLand. The Four assassinate her before she makes landfall to prevent her becoming a threat to their plans.
** Jakita Wagner is a LongLived attractive dark-haired woman who is a super strong hand-to-hand combatant from ancient civilisation, in this case the Lost City of Opak-Re in Africa. Granted Jakita's personality is quite different from Wondy being less patient and more cynical and violent along with a strong dislike of boredom.

** Ever since her 2012 relaunch as Captain Marvel, ComicBook/CarolDanvers has often been [[CharacterShilling pushed]] as Marvel’s Wonder Woman, due to the absence of a “main” superheroine in the MU [[labelnote:*]] Not helping matters was the fact some of the most iconic Marvel heroines like [[ComicBook/FantasticFour Invisible Woman]], [[ComicBook/XMen Storm, Rogue and Jean Grey]] were all owned by Fox until 2019 [[/labelnote]]. Carol similar to Diana is now a PrimaryColourChampion and an idol to young women within the Marvel universe on top of being the female FlyingBrick of the Avengers and most powerful next to Thor. Also thanks to a retcon she even shares Diana’s mixed heritage with an otherworldly parent. Though this is still relatively downplayed with Carol, as she lacks the mystical elements of Wonder Woman and has more similarities to [[ComicBook/GreenLantern Hal Jordan]].

** The fan setting "World Half Empty"/"World Too Far) (on the now-defunct ''M&M'' discussion boards, Internet Archive copy [[https://web.archive.org/web/20111225091734/http://atomicthinktank.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=36026 here]]) had an interesting attempt at a RareMaleExample (presumably to counterbalance the setting's female SupermanSubstitute) with Sir Perceval, who left an extradimensional version of [[Myth/ArthurianLegend Camelot]] to quest in the modern world. The parallel was most obvious with his rogue's gallery, which included the sorceress Morgana la Fey (ComicBook/{{Circe}}), Herne the Hunter, an eco-terrorist who transformed himself into a beastman (ComicBook/{{Cheetah}}), and Mr Toxic, a sadistic MasterPoisoner (Dr Poison).

** Just like the original comics,
Queen Maeve who dresses in an "Amazon" outfit that's colored red and silver, and includes matching headband, wristbands, and knee-high boots. She has SuperToughness and SuperStrength, but can't fly, so she's either carried into a mission by [[SupermanSubstitute Homelander]] or has to catch up by her own means. She also [[TheAlcoholic has a drinking problem]] which stems from [[spoiler:her public life being controlled by [[Fiction500 the Vought Corporation]] to [[SlaveToPR the last detail]]]], as well as the time [[spoiler:that Homelander convinced her to [[LeaveNoWitnesses ditch an airliner full of passengers that he accidentally disabled]] when they took out the high-jackers]].

* Damsel from ''Literature/SoonIWillBeInvincible'' is more of a ''ComicBook/WonderGirl'' expy being a second-generation superheroine who derives her invincibility from the ability to create forcefields. Though she does fit the role, being the setting's most famous superheroine. And one of the main heroes alongside more blatant Superman and Batman expies.
