Description
So, this has been going on in my head for a long while. It's the idea of what if Walt Disney did a series of Miss America animated shorts during the World War II era. It came to me after seeing the Fleischer cartoons of Superman and it got me thinking, how come Disney didn't take notice of it and wanting to do something similar but in his own way?
For those unaware of the origin of Miss America.
"Socially aware teenage heiress Madeline Joyce was born in Washington, D.C., and was the niece and ward of radio mogul James Bennet, who was sponsoring Professor Lawson, a scientist claiming to have gotten superpowers through a device that had been struck by lightning. Joyce, secretly tampering with the contraption during a thunderstorm that night, herself gained the ability to fly and great strength after lightning similarly struck, knocking her unconscious (she originally had x-ray vision, as well as other powers, but after her few early appearances they were retconned). The panicky scientist, seeing the apparently dead young woman, destroyed the device and then killed himself. Joyce survived to fight crime as the patriotically garbed Miss America, appearing regularly in Marvel Mystery Comics and All Winners Comics."
As for her powers, Madeline Joyce as Miss America possesses "The Strength of a Thousand Men", making her lift weights far heavier than any normal human would. Her superhuman durability makes her resistant to different forms of damage.
She has the ability to levitate herself through psionic means. By using her levitation ability in connection with carefully planned leaps, Miss America could use her power to fly. She could attain any height at which she could still breathe (approximately 20,000 feet).
Fatigue poisons accumulate much slower in Madeline Joyce's body than that of a normal human, giving her a heightened "vitality."
She also possesses something called "The Wisdom of the Ages". She doesn’t "know everything", but she can tap into the collective wisdom, experience, and insights of generations, from Greek philosophers, Renaissance thinkers, to Native American elders, and the Founding Fathers and Mothers.
I feel like Madeline Joyce as Miss America could've been Marvel's answer to Superman. I know that Captain America fits the description with the superhuman strength, fighting skills, boy scout attitude, but he's more grounded and more Batman when compared to Miss America’s feats of strength, superpowered flight, and collective wisdom.
Back to the question at hand, I think Walt Disney's Miss America animated shorts would've been more popular than the comics themselves, to the point of having the comics match the animated shorts they were based on. Miss America wouldn't fade to obscurity, she would've been just as popular as the rest of the Marvel heroes.
What do you guys think of the idea?
