Meet Pakistan's new Wonder Woman, "Burka Avenger" Ned the Newshound !XBW.lrXjxw 07/25/13(Thu)23:41 No.52245719

>Wonder Woman and Supergirl now have a Pakistani counterpart in the pantheon of female superheroes — one who shows a lot less skin.

>Meet Burka Avenger: a mild-mannered teacher with secret martial arts skills who uses a flowing black burka to hide her identity as she fights local thugs seeking to shut down the girls' school where she works.

>Sadly, it's a battle Pakistanis are all too familiar with in the real world.

It's probably due to an ass-backwards interpretation of Islamic law that makes them believe that education for women should be forbidden. It's obviously the extremists. This does happen in real life.

It's funny. America has done and does morally questionable things.

But nobody questions that Al-Qaeda and the Taliban are assholes. They are, like, cartoonishly villainous. Fucking shooting children in the face, DELIBERATELY, because she wanted to be educated.

Jesus fuck guys, get some moral ambiguity.

Saw that trailer. The animation is super choppy for CG, the parts with the kids are cringe inducing, but damn catchy theme song, nice looking action choreagraphy, villains have a good Kim Possible feel to them, and that outfit is actually badass as hell. She looks like a cross between a ninja and Batman.

Kind of want to watch. If nothing else, glad that these kids are getting a pretty decent cartoon. Better than Dora the Explorer any day.
