But thankfully she got this wicked makeover in the 2013 X-Men series, not that she needed it. But that growth to acceptance was a slow process. As an adult I look back and see how these characters were a product of the time and truly appreciate them - impractical shoulderpads and all. Off the top of my head I can think of Batman's Magpie and Mime, Zarana in the GIJoe comics, Callisto in X-Men, and of course Typhoid Mary in Daredevil. It was actually a common aesthetic at the time. While my narrow-minded juvenile mind wasn't exactly demanding that my villainesses be vixenish bombshells like they tend to be today, I still had trouble with outlandishly punkrock characters with fishnets, facepaint, and scribbled hair. When I was a young comic book reader in the 1980s there was a certain aesthetic for bad girls that was hard for me to get on board with. Of all the recent Marvel Legends releases, I can honestly say that Typhoid Mary was easily the one I was least excited about. Venom Legends: Wave 1 (Monster Venom BAF) - Typhoid Mary - Hasbro 2018
