I was more than a little disappointed to learn that Black Widow (
Scarlett Johansson) will be
the only female Avenger to appear in the
forthcoming movie. Moreover,
Whedon's "but she will not be the only female character" is something of a cop-out, since any additional female characters will most likely be nothing more than love interests for the movie's male Avengers.
Nor can the excuse that there aren't enough extant female Avengers be used. The
Avengers team has had a number of potent and interesting heroines associated with it over the years, including one of the strongest characters to be found in any superhero team:
She-Hulk.
What a missed opportunity.
