Thanks so much for posting this, I didn't even know anything about her. It still continues to amaze me how much lgbt history is just quietly ignored.

Thank you for posting. I had heard of her -- mainly in regards to throwing the first punch -- but I had not known nearly this much. It's sad that she's not more well-known because wow, this woman was amazing.

(edit because i can't keep tenses straight)

Never heard of her before now, but she sounds absolutely awesome.

Epic gay superhero indeed.
