    How about in this format?

    Number of Appearances in comics as of June 28, 2012:

    Storm: 4,369

    Wonder Woman: 3,896

    Lois Lane: 3,279

    Supergirl: 1,812

    Black Canary: 1,765

    Barbara Gordon: 1,505

    Catwoman: 1,137

    Number of appearances in video games as of june 2012

    Storm: 36

    Wonder Woman: 11

    Catwoman: 14

    Supergirl: 3

    Batgirl: 7

    Also by saying that you're also saying Beast who has 4588 appearance is more popular than Wonder Woman. Which is not true at all.

    we don't only consider the number of appearances in comics but also in movies, cartoons, etc.

    Beast, Jean Grey, Rogue, Professor X has as many appearances in comics and movies and video games as Storm. They all appear in the x-men films, video games and animations.

    Besides, since we both agree that WW and catwoman is more popular and iconic than Storm. Lets take a look at Batgirl.

    Batgirl appeared in Batman the animated series, Superman the animated series, Justice League unlimited, The Batman, Batman Brave and the Bold.

    Batgirl is currently appearing on Young Justice, Super Best Friends Foreverand most likely Beware the Batman. 3 animated series/shorts current, that has combined of probably more than 2 million views on so each week, which is in the most highly rated kids network, Cartoon Network.

    Cartoon Network and Boomerang also play reruns and of lots of the Batman animated series which is aired to millions of audience. Is Storm currently on any animated series?

    Batgirl is the main lead for The Batman as Barbara Gordon and was the center of the animated series, besides she has a very popular family member Detective Gordon that always appear in all the Batman films, animated series, animated movies, does storm has a popular family member that stars in a movie that grossed 1 billion dollars?

    Batgirl (babs) is one of the most prolific member in the bat family, even appearing in Batman forever as Batgirl acted by Alicia Silverstone, which was only few in 1997, not too long ago.

    Even when Babs was handicapped, she was being replaced and the title Batgirl has been ongoing and used by other characters like Cass and Steph. So the mantle of Batgirl is still very popular and iconic.

    Batgirl also frequently appear on animated movies. Did Storm appear on any animated movie?

    Also, Batgirl's infamous crippling was one of the most sold graphic novels, The Killing Joke.

    It was published in 1988 and yet even now it is still the top selling book, Selling at #4 spot with 29k in 2009 and in 2010 coming at #5 slot The Killing Joke with 17k copies. For more than 1 decade, the killing joke graphic novel outsold more than any single marvel graphic novel.

    Does Storm have any graphic novels that comes in the top 10 spots?

    @sethysquare said:

    Supergirl, Wonder Woman, Catwoman, Batgirl have more than 100 solo issues for each of them. Recently Batwoman joined the rank as a top 25 book. Worlds finest top 20. When Marvel have a solo female book that went pass 50 issues or sells in the top 25, then we'll talk.

    Captain Marvel looks like she has potential. We'll see.

    so since The Tick, Witchblade,etc had their own ongoing solo comics, does that mean they're more popular than Storm?

    You have a point, but the tick and witchblade are selling below 10000 copies per month. They are indie publishers and so it doesnt count. We're talking about the big 2 here.

    Batgirl #1 sold more than 100,000 copies and went to 3rd or 4th reprint. Did Storm ever have a solo that sold above 100,000 copies?

    1. Storm may have not given a major role but she is currently appearing in at least 2 books or more every month. a lot of people are buying x-men and avengers comics so definitely they know who Storm is.and more exposure means more known.

    Same goes to Batgirl, within this year, she is appearing in Batgirl (her own solo), Birds of Prey (main cast) and has in the past few issues cameoed in 1. Batman The Dark Knight, 2. Batman: Arkham City End Game, 3. Batman Inc, 4.Batman Arkham Unhinged, 5. Ame Comi Girls 2: Batgirl (digital one shot), then main cast in Ame Comi Girls, 6. Batwoman, 7. Batman Beyond Unlimited, 8. Red Hood and the Outlaws, 9. Nightwing, 10, I, Vampire, 11. Batwing

    2 main cast (soon to be 3) and 11 cameos, within this year.

    @jhazzroucher said:

    2. Some of the dc ladies you have mentioned may have their own films but when were they released? Back when there were only a few household with televisions and few theaters. Surely, the x-men films were shown worldwide and it was Storm and Wolverine images that are usually shown on newspapers and magazines.

    Batgirl has been shown in the Batman live action tv series back then and even recently in Batman forever. Besides, like I said, shes appearing in Young Justice, SBFF and soon to be Beware the Batman with millions of audience.

    @jhazzroucher said:

    3 how many people are actually attending cosplays? Besides people who attend may still see Storm images somewhere during the convention. And how is that compared to more than 8 million monthly users playing Marvel: Avengers Alliancewhich facebook users would see a Storm image with the rest of the big guys of Marvel during the intro/loading part.

    Everyone on Halloween and Batgirl is one of the most cosplayed female superhero on halloween. Also that figure of more than 8 million users is incorrect. More than 8 million users signed up for the game. Hardly anyone plays it. But DC Universe Online has Oracle as the main voice that airs throughout the game. Then with other batgirls in the game. It is actually a serious game with serious players that has around 500,000 users after going free to play.

    @jhazzroucher said:

    4. Storm has a high number of appearances on films and cartoon series

    With those we have discussed, maybe nobody else is as popular or more popular than Storm except Wonder Woman. But I'd say Catwoman is behind her. The latest Batman video game has sold more than 2 million copies and it featured Catwoman. Catwoman will also show up on the upcoming Batman film so prolly it's safe to say she'll be as popular as or maybe more popular than Storm and Wonder Woman when the movie is released.

    Batgirl has more appearance on animated series, animated movies, live action TV. Batgirl only appeared slightly lesser in live action movies.

    So now that thats done, we can agree that Batgirl, Catwoman and Wonder Woman are all more iconic and popular than Storm.

    So now that thats done, we can agree that Batgirl, Catwoman and Wonder Woman are all more iconic and popular than Storm.

    1. No. I did not agree that Catwoman and Wonder Woman are more popular than Storm. But this 3 ladies are definitely top 3. : )

    2. Do people even know which Batgirl are you referring to? Storm is Ororo Munroe and Ororo Munroe is Storm and nobody else.

    3. Oh so Batgirl is showing up in a lot of comics. same goes to Storm but for now, there's a huge difference on the number of appearances in comics between them. Storm has more.

    4. Iron Man, Hulk, etc didn't reach 100,00 copies but they're more popular than Batgirl. for the big 2 companies, Dazzler, She-Hulk, Ms Marvel, Huntress and I'm sure the are more who have their own ongoing solo but is not as popular as Storm.

    5. You have a point with the 8miliion+ monthly users. Not all of them are playing but there is a large number of users playing that game.500,000 players for DC Universe? How about this. let's just say Marvel Avengers Allliance active players are 1 million instead of me saying it's 8 million. so there are more players still in Marvel Avengers Alliance than DC Universe. Don't forget that we could also say there are half a million people playing Marvel vs capcom 2, marvel vs capcom 3 and ultimate marvel vs capcom 3. let's not forget that people are also playing Marvel Superhero squad and children playing little big planet which dlc marvel characters are available including Storm.

    and i already said this. Storm has more number of appearances in video games than Batgirl.

    6. Batgirl has more appearances in movies and cartoon series than Storm??? Show me the figures.

    Here's for Storm:

    Pryde Of The X-Men - 1 episode

    X-Men: The Animated Series - 76 episodes

    X-Men Evolution - 52 episodes

    Wolverine and the X-men - 26 episdoes

    Black Panther (TV series) - 6 episodes

    It's safe to say Storm showed up in all of those episodes because she showed up on intro jingle of those cartoon series.

    let's not forget Storm's appearances in Spider-man: the animated series, Spider-man and his amazing friends, X-Men Anime and Marvel Super Hero Squad.

    as for films, Storm has appeared:

    1. x-men

    2. x2

    3. x3

    4. cameo in X-men Origins: Wolverine

    5. cameo in X-Men first class

    6. Superhero movie

    can we include "the greatest fan film of all time?"

    please tell me who is more exposed and who has more appearances? if you say Storm then your answer is correct

    7. To add, for greatest comic characters list from different compnies. sites, etc. I've seen Storm many times included in those lists, from ign, wizard magazine, etc.. How about batgirl? and which batgirl?

    8. with regards to cosplay, i guess Batgirl takes it but not a big difference

    8. with regards to cosplay, i guess Batgirl takes it but not a big difference

    1. Actually Lois Lane, Wonder Woman, Catwoman and Batgirl are the top 4 because Lois Lane has the most main stream appearances like Since 1940sand 50s she been appearing on live action. Then Lois and Clark the new adventures of Superman, adventures of Superman, adventures of Superboy, Lois and Clark and Smallville. Accumulating over 100 episodes on TV. Then she was on 5 movies in the donner verse, 1 movie by Kate Bosworth on Superman Returns and one more next year Man of Steel. She also appeared on all the superman cartoons and animated movies. So Lois Lane is equally as iconic as Wonder Woman.

    2. Regular people knows who Batgirl is. Doesn't matter which Batgirl, Batgirl the mantle itself is iconic and ofcourse Babs is the most iconic one.

    3. Storm doesn't have more. Batgirl probably owns the bat universe at the moment. She is hot commodity.

    4. Yes, the incredible hulk reached 100,000 copies for its first issue. Probably same goes to Ironman. Except traditionally Iron man was never much popular in the comics crowd.

    5. DC universe online is a serious game. Marvel universe alliance is a facebook game. I doubt even 10k people are playing it.

    6. Ill show you the figures, but do be aware than an Xmen animated tv series showcases 10-20 mutant. Storm was part of the 10-20 and your figures are wrong. Storm did not appear in all 26 episodes of Wolverine and the xmen. She wasn't even there half the time. She also probably also didnt appear in all 76 episodes of xmen the animated series. If we're counting the series in which Batgirl is a regular in then Batgirl wins.

    Batman TV Series (1960s) played by Yvonne Craig - 120 episodes

    Birds of Prey (2002) played by Dina Meyer - 13 episodes

    Batman with Robin (1968) - 34 shorts

    Superfriends - 109 episodes

    Batman the animated series - 85 episodes

    The new batman adventures - 24 episodes

    Gotham Girls shorts - 30 episodes

    Batman Beyond - 52 episodes

    The Batman - 65 episodes

    Batman Brave and the Bold - 65 episodes

    Young Justice - ongoing.

    Super Best Friends Forever - 5 episodes

    Films -

    Also since when does fan films count? Bcos Babs have tons of fan films. Also uhm Storm didnt appear in first class and wolverine and the x-men.

    For films:

    Batman and Mr Freeze: Subzero

    Batman: Mystery of Batwoman

    Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker

    7. Uh, I dont think Ive ever seen Storm being on top of the list. Neither did I bother to search for it. But I randomly searched for IGN's list and

    #17 Babs - http://www.ign.com/top/comic-book-heroes/17

    #19 Detective Gordon, her father.

    #42 Storm http://www.ign.com/top/comic-book-heroes/42

    @sethysquare: He will never listen dude the guy is devoid of any sort of logic.....

    That being said Storm is a big superheroine I'd put her in the top ten as 5 or 6.

    @Blood1991: LOL. thats true. I do think Storm is a big superheroine. But definitely behind WW, Catwoman, Lois Lane, Batgirl and Supergirl. Next few in the line would probably be Storm, Rogue, Black Canary, Black Widow and Ms/captain marvel, Zattana, powergirl, huntress, possibly Jean Grey and Emma Frost.

    I agree with everyone, but Lois Lane not to say she isn't well known or popular just not a superheroine, though I guess that would make Catwoman questionable too, but she's awesome so I'll but her on any heroines/villaness list any day.

    How anyone can argue whether Wonder Woman and Catwoman are more popular than Storm is beyond me. It doesn't matter what facts are given.."SOMEONE" will always say the opposite. This whole Storm popularity thing is getting annoying especially considering even if she WAS more popular than Wonder Woman or Catwoman or on the same level (which she's not), both characters are worth more to DC than Storm is to Marvel. Storm could die right now and never return and it WOULDN'T matter.

    I'm actually a Storm fan, I'm just tired of all the huge drawn out stubborn arguments over who Storm is more popular than. Some people need to just come to terms with the fact their favorite character isn't that important. Nobody should be a Storm fan because she's popular or more popular than anyone else. You should be a fan because she's a good character. All these debates are beyond stupid at this point.

    @Vance Astro: Oh I agree full-heartidly, I checked in on this to see how bad it had gotten saw that someone was trying to have a serious arguement and tried to save them some time by simply quitting. I've gone down that road it isn't pretty and it doesn't lead anywhere.

    @Blood1991: yeah. it isnt the first time Ive went into an argument with regards to this topic with that particular poster. And I realised that that storm fan seems to be in the habit of creating topics like that to have a flame war. shame on me for falling for the same trick.

    1. No. I did not agree that Catwoman and Wonder Woman are more popular than Storm. But this 3 ladies are definitely top 3. : )

    2. Do people even know which Batgirl are you referring to? Storm is Ororo Munroe and Ororo Munroe is Storm and nobody else.

    3. Oh so Batgirl is showing up in a lot of comics. same goes to Storm but for now, there's a huge difference on the number of appearances in comics between them. Storm has more.

    4. Iron Man, Hulk, etc didn't reach 100,00 copies but they're more popular than Batgirl. for the big 2 companies, Dazzler, She-Hulk, Ms Marvel, Huntress and I'm sure the are more who have their own ongoing solo but is not as popular as Storm.

    5. You have a point with the 8miliion+ monthly users. Not all of them are playing but there is a large number of users playing that game.500,000 players for DC Universe? How about this. let's just say Marvel Avengers Allliance active players are 1 million instead of me saying it's 8 million. so there are more players still in Marvel Avengers Alliance than DC Universe. Don't forget that we could also say there are half a million people playing Marvel vs capcom 2, marvel vs capcom 3 and ultimate marvel vs capcom 3. let's not forget that people are also playing Marvel Superhero squad and children playing little big planet which dlc marvel characters are available including Storm.

    and i already said this. Storm has more number of appearances in video games than Batgirl.

    6. Batgirl has more appearances in movies and cartoon series than Storm??? Show me the figures.

    Here's for Storm:

    Pryde Of The X-Men - 1 episode

    X-Men: The Animated Series - 76 episodes

    X-Men Evolution - 52 episodes

    Wolverine and the X-men - 26 episdoes

    Black Panther (TV series) - 6 episodes

    It's safe to say Storm showed up in all of those episodes because she showed up on intro jingle of those cartoon series.

    let's not forget Storm's appearances in Spider-man: the animated series, Spider-man and his amazing friends, X-Men Anime and Marvel Super Hero Squad.

    as for films, Storm has appeared:

    1. x-men

    2. x2

    3. x3

    4. cameo in X-men Origins: Wolverine

    5. cameo in X-Men first class

    6. Superhero movie

    can we include "the greatest fan film of all time?"

    please tell me who is more exposed and who has more appearances? if you say Storm then your answer is correct

    7. To add, for greatest comic characters list from different compnies. sites, etc. I've seen Storm many times included in those lists, from ign, wizard magazine, etc.. How about batgirl? and which batgirl?

    8. with regards to cosplay, i guess Batgirl takes it but not a big difference

    1. Actually Lois Lane, Wonder Woman, Catwoman and Batgirl are the top 4 because Lois Lane has the most main stream appearances like Since 1940sand 50s she been appearing on live action. Then Lois and Clark the new adventures of Superman, adventures of Superman, adventures of Superboy, Lois and Clark and Smallville. Accumulating over 100 episodes on TV. Then she was on 5 movies in the donner verse, 1 movie by Kate Bosworth on Superman Returns and one more next year Man of Steel. She also appeared on all the superman cartoons and animated movies. So Lois Lane is equally as iconic as Wonder Woman.

    2. Regular people knows who Batgirl is. Doesn't matter which Batgirl, Batgirl the mantle itself is iconic and ofcourse Babs is the most iconic one.

    3. Storm doesn't have more. Batgirl probably owns the bat universe at the moment. She is hot commodity.

    4. Yes, the incredible hulk reached 100,000 copies for its first issue. Probably same goes to Ironman. Except traditionally Iron man was never much popular in the comics crowd.

    5. DC universe online is a serious game. Marvel universe alliance is a facebook game. I doubt even 10k people are playing it.

    6. Ill show you the figures, but do be aware than an Xmen animated tv series showcases 10-20 mutant. Storm was part of the 10-20 and your figures are wrong. Storm did not appear in all 26 episodes of Wolverine and the xmen. She wasn't even there half the time. She also probably also didnt appear in all 76 episodes of xmen the animated series. If we're counting the series in which Batgirl is a regular in then Batgirl wins.

    Batman TV Series (1960s) played by Yvonne Craig - 120 episodes

    Birds of Prey (2002) played by Dina Meyer - 13 episodes

    Batman with Robin (1968) - 34 shorts

    Superfriends - 109 episodes

    Batman the animated series - 85 episodes

    The new batman adventures - 24 episodes

    Gotham Girls shorts - 30 episodes

    Batman Beyond - 52 episodes

    The Batman - 65 episodes

    Batman Brave and the Bold - 65 episodes

    Young Justice - ongoing.

    Super Best Friends Forever - 5 episodes

    Films -

    Also since when does fan films count? Bcos Babs have tons of fan films. Also uhm Storm didnt appear in first class and wolverine and the x-men.

    For films:

    Batman and Mr Freeze: Subzero

    Batman: Mystery of Batwoman

    Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker

    7. Uh, I dont think Ive ever seen Storm being on top of the list. Neither did I bother to search for it. But I randomly searched for IGN's list and

    #17 Babs - http://www.ign.com/top/comic-book-heroes/17

    #19 Detective Gordon, her father.

    #42 Storm http://www.ign.com/top/comic-book-heroes/42

    1. Lois Lane as iconic as WW? Nope. Superman and Batman may have a lot of exposure but the X-men too that's why they hold a lot of records. and again, when were those shown? back when there were only a few tvs and theaters right?

    2. Ask people and they would usually name a few x-ladies like Storm, Phoenix and Rogue and for dc that would be WW, Catwoman and Supergirl. I believe Supergirl is more popular than Batgirl. It's a bit different when Batgirl is being played by different persons. hence people who don't read comics might even say Batwoman rather than Batgirl.

    3. Maybe just a bit but Storm is still going strong and the fact that Storm still has more number of appearances in comics than Batgirl which is a huge difference, I don't think Batgirl can even surpass Storm on this category.

    4. thanks for the info.

    5. If you think only 10k are playing avengers alliance, then i will also think that dc universe has less than 10k players. you do know that there are a lot of marvel vs capcom videos in youtube for gameplays and tournaments and the mvc guide book. Don't forget marvel super hero squad, etc.

    6. Storm did show up on the intro jingle of every Wolverine and the X-men episode. Wolverine at the center, Storm on his side. I think it was Cyclops on Wolverine's other side. You do know that x-men characters are being named during intro of every x-men: tas episode. Looks like Storm has more films still than what you have posted. Not to mention more merchandises for Storm than Batgirl, including a Storm perfume and a Storm ride.

    7. Good thing Batgirl showed up in ign. But how about on other lists? Batgirl actually also did better at #37 in Wizards greatest 200 while Storm is at #89. But then again, there are a lot of characters who have ranked higher but are not really popular. Anyway, Comic Vine has Storm at #1 for 2011. : )

    @jhazzroucher: honestly I really like storm. I think Storm is one of the most prolific female in marvel.Ill take Storm over Black Widow any time. But even you have to agree Marvel dont do their female characters justice. They just have no idea what to do with them. Which is why they didnt blossom like DC's female characters. I dont even like some of the DC ladies like catwoman or lois lane (i do like batgirl, supergirl and ww) but all of them received so much exposure. lois was in every superman tv series and movies. She was recent on smallville for 5 years and before that lois and clark. Even the tv show have her name in it. You cant deny that DC does a much better job promoting their female characters.Ill just leave it at that since we cant agree on it.

    alright. Thanks. I really like talking with you because you also do your research and you don't say unkind things as far as i can remember. : )

    My favorite DC ladies in order are Supergirl, Catwoman and Batgirl.

    We may agree to disagree but at least viners who will read our posts will be able to get more information. : )

    More popular:

    • Wonder Woman
    • Catwoman... or else DC wouldn't push her so hard... I hope.
    • Harley Quinn, if those sales are not entirely down to the creative team.
    • Batgirls, doesnt seems to matter which one you look at, they all have huge amounts of followers.

    Just as popular:

    • Raven, considering that she (like Storm) is nailed to her originating franchise
    • Starfire, seems DC can keep find new interesting things to do with her
    • Powergirl, dunno if its the 'window' or not but people buy her books
    • Supergirl

    Harley Quinn seems to be have become very popular over the last year or 2 and I just don't mean with the comic buying crowd.
