Catwoman is an antihero. She's typically classified as a villain as she's part of Batman's rouges gallery, but she's drifted away from being a true villain.

I was just working on a quiz like this. Then I remembered there already was one. I could turn it into a sequel... but I doubled up most of these answers making finishing mine significantly harder. You missed a few good ones, though. I'll see if it can be done.

lots of DC here, not much marvel. Wondering if it's bias from the quizmaker or if the DC characters just tend to have more nicknames.
