Big Barda Origin - She Was Bred As A Weapon Of Torture And Destruction On Darkseid's World Apokolips

When it comes to the greatest heroes in graphic novels, figures like Thor, Superman, and The Hulk come to mind. But for some reason, most readers don't give quite so much recognition to female superheroes in comics, despite the reality that some of them are powerful enough to battle alongside any male super villain. Many of the female heroes in Marvel, DC, and Image Comics are powerful enough to hurl tanks, knock down a skyscraper, or move planets. While very few female superheroes achieve superhuman power, they at least compete on an equal footing with their male equivalents. One such dazzling but unfortunately underrated super heroine is Big Barda. Not only is this lovely Super-heroine asininely powerful, but she was also ranked 75th in Comics Buyer's Guide's 100 Sexiest Women in Comics list.
DC's Big Barda has had a remarkable transformation from antagonist to heroine. When we talk about DC's pantheon of New Gods, figures like Darkseid and Orion may come to mind first, but Big Barda and her spouse Scott Free, also known as Mister Miracle, also have a long history. While she has seldom had a prominent role, she is one of DC's more notable characters who has also starred in the Justice League animations and several of DC's most popular events.
