Storm has a history of fighting her way out of some steep stuff. And often by her will and some strange weather she pulls out the win.
She also, up until recently, been the target of despots, kings and intergalactic conquerors affections and come out relatively unscathed.

Even if he did have that great a will, and he doesn't, the question is superHEROINES, not superHEROES. Madrox doesn't qualify, being male.

*Attempts to revive this thread, since I feel it didn't get a chance*
Again, here's my list...
10 - Shadowcat
9 - Black Widow
8 - Moonstar
7 - Ms Marvel
6 - Marvel Girl (Rachel Summers)
5 - She Hulk
4 - Invisible Woman
3 - Jean Grey
2 - Storm
1 - Wonder Woman
Anyone else have a different list? I'll admit my knowledge pretty much stops at Marvel anyway.

Valkyrie seems like a very good candidate for such a list.

Ah, I hadn't thought of her... technically though, almost any Asgardian chick would fall under the "high willpower" category though, imo.

Let's not forget Moondragon. That lady doesn't know how to give up (though that might just be stubborness).
Remaining Momboto, as usual.

Well, Isis and Aphrodite aren't technically superheroines... they're full time goddesses.

I think your ten are some excellent examples, though I wouldn't say in that order. Jean Grey's had her fair share of flaky moments. She's struggled with a sense of sense of self and purpose. Phoenix (Rachel Summers) and Shadowcat come across to me as both having a stronger will than Jean.
Remaining Momboto, as usual.

No Green Lanterns? Sure, most are male, but there are female members, and they're powers are defined by their will.
Or is this a Marvel-only thing?
(And since when's Madrox been strong-willed enough to be in even the top 50, much less a top 10?)

It's not just Marvel, but my list is almost all Marvel because I don't know much of anything besides Marvel.

Never, in regards to Madrox, and for strong-willed female Green Lanterns that'd include Katma-Tui, or however her name's spelled, the female Green Lantern from Sinestro's homeworld, and Arista, although I'm not sure if either's been restored to GL status.

No disrespect, just my take, I'm a bit disappointed. I haven't seen a real interest in the mentions like I did in the thread about bust size?! Including DC I have to say the list for me changes a bit. my mentions are placed to the right of the "//" symbols. Feel free to critique my list!

Lol! Seriously, she is one BAD A$$ woman! She is all "I'ma kick Your Tail if you get in my way!"
But since you asked: [ en.wikipedia.org]

A DC character from the New Gods continuity, former minion of Darkseid turned to good by Scott Free and later to his wife. That makes her a New God born on Apocolypse.
