* OneHeadTaller: Zig-zagged; the nimble type is a few inches taller than the burly and foot taller than the speedy type. The Mighty type however is always a foot taller than her, and the Tough is hard to outright tell due the model chart obscuring her head with her hair and promotional material showing them at equal height (though she might be a few inches taller than the tough).



* SmallGirlBigGun: Can be done, as the only female bodytype is small. This is often averted, as choosing a large gun would negate some of the reasoning behind picking the female, however you will often see "Nimble" bodytypes with rifles, which are at least large if not big, because they don't slow them down and that body is best for getting into sniping position.

Gotham City has gone insane, and Franchise/{{Batman}} is up to his pointy ears in unwanted "helpers" determined to dish out their own bloodthirsty brand of vigilante justice in his name (and image). Meanwhile, a small army of self-appointed junior [[SelfDemonstrating/TheJoker Jokerz]] has turned the streets of Gotham into a barmy battlefield of bullets, bodies and bear traps.
